The KEY to All Your Real Estate Needs |
|
The Treasure Valley truly is a spectacular place during the holiday season. From neighborhood lights, to community events and celebrations, there truly is something for everyone. I've included information and direct links to some of the area's traditional favorites.
Looking to stay a bit warmer and take in something indoors? How about The Nutcracker Ballet at the Morrison Center. A great opportunity for some holiday magic and to support our local performers. Or, how about a holiday movie at the beautiful Egyptian Theatre? The Egyptian is such a great atmosphere for any event - but, even-more-so during the holidays.
I'm really liking the new statistical sheets put out by Boise Regional Realtors each month. It's helpful to see everything at a glance, and be able to easily compare existing vs. new construction, for example, or Ada County data with Canyon County. I hope you take some time to check it out.
However you spend this holiday season, I hope it's filled with friends and family, and full of the joy of the season!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,

According to Scentsy, their display has over 900,000 lights on 450 trees which spread out end to end would cover more than 43 miles.
