The 7 Best Holiday Light Displays In Columbus 🎄
Sponsored by Easton Town Center. For over 20 years, Easton has brought families and friends together to celebrate the magic of the holidays.

Check out this link to learn more safety measures and more on what they have planned for the holidays this year. ❄️🎄
Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.
My favorite part of the holiday season is without a doubt all of the lights. I know it's weird, but I hate that it gets dark so early and having all of the fun displays everywhere really takes the gloom out of sunset at 4:45, ya know? Since the vast majority of holiday light displays are outside, it's a great, pandemic-friendly activity for the family. You can load up the car, pop on the holiday tunes, and check out some of these gorgeous displays! If you're going to the outdoor displays on foot, be sure to bring a mask. Just think how warm your face will stay this year!
