Such a fun and wonderful community event for Alexandria,
Christmas in July! All children want
Christmas to be more than just once a year, I want it to be more than once a
year. This is the perfect opportunity to
celebrate a midyear Christmas. The
Christmas Attic in Old Town Alexandria is the center of all the
activities. There you can meet and talk
to Santa and Mrs. Claus, decorate Christmas ornaments and play loads of fun
games for the whole family. It is a lot
of fun to see Santa dressed up in a summer outfit.
The Christmas Attic isn’t the only store that participates
in this mid summer’s Christmas holiday.
There is a list of stores and restaurants that enjoy getting in the
spirit of the holiday with Christmas cookie decorating, games, music and lots
of holiday cheer. There are carolers
walking around and a band playing Christmas music. The spirit of the season is definitely captured
with this event. Besides being in the
middle of summer you feel like you are walking the historic streets of Old Town
Alexandria during the Christmas holiday.
This was the perfect activity to bring your child to. My daughter thought it was so cool to see
Santa in summer clothes and to be able to tell him what she wants for
Christmas. You can’t beat the Christmas
spirit and this is a perfect way to have a mid-year celebration!
