Is it too early to start thinking about the holidays?  Some people will say ABSOLUTELY!  But I figure the time to celebrate the holidays, which includes Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve/Day, is anytime you can.  It can be a lot when you consider all of the planning that can go into these holidays with guests, family, food, gifts, decor, and anything else your family and friends do to celebrate.

That's why when I see events like this happening around the area, I think it's a great time to check it out, see some fun holiday decor, and try some new beverages and foods. Could be a great time to see if you can incorporate some new things into some old traditions.

The event is scheduled to start this Thursday, November 7th and run through Sunday, November 10th at the Grande Depot off of hwy 23.

From their Facebook event, this is what you can expect to happen throughout the long weekend:

Get into the holiday spirit at Grande Depot’s biggest event of the year! Our Annual Holiday Open House is the perfect way to kick off the season. Enjoy an array of vendor food and beverage sampling, special promotions, and the chance to shop Central Minnesota’s largest selection of holiday decorations. From festive treats to stunning decor, we’ve got everything you need to make this holiday season unforgettable. Don’t miss out on the merriment—mark your calendar and join us for a day of festive fun!

There are also several other events happening within the next couple of weekends.  This is the time of year when many holiday events happen to coincide with deer hunting weekends.
