The Holidays have so many great events you can experience together and in the process spend fun quality time together as a family. Holiday lights are one of my favorite things to enjoy on a snow covered winter night. The quiet calmness of night, the glistening snow and all the beautiful lights twinkling are so joyful. For me it's the perfect spring board for reflecting on what's important in life. With that, I'm excited to take my family to see the Holiday lights around town.

Thursday, November 18th at 6:00 p.m is Wayne County Lightfest Opening Night. There will be FREE refreshments, live entertainment, fireworks, and the official "Lights On" ceremony.

The Wayne County Light Fest is located along Hines Drive & Merriman Road, in Westland, MI. The Wayne County Lightfest 2010, runs from November 18th to December 31st (closed on December 25th).
