Christmas at the Capitol

This season is a time of celebration and reflection. As a Christian, Christmas is a time for me and my family to reflect on our faith and the good news of Jesus' birth. Other faiths celebrate the season with holidays like Hanukkah and Kwanzaa.

As you begin to plan your own celebrations and traditions, I hope that you will join Bryon and I during the annual Christmas at the Capitol event. The decorations, the smell of the trees, and the atmosphere are unlike anything else you will see.

We look forward to seeing you there.

From our family to yours - Merry Christmas!!
