Come Home to Franklin County Christmas is an annual event held early in December on a Friday night. Main Street is closed to traffic, the stores and library stay open late, there are carriage rides, food, street musicians and other exhibits and attractions up and down the few blocks.

The county's very own Wright Kids performed again this year in the children's department at the library. This was especially nice for me. I was working and able to get a great (and uncrowded!) view. These kids made the top ten during Season Three of the TV show America's Got Talent; they are very popular around here. We know them well at the library too, some of the sweetest, down to earth kids you could ever meet.
Little sister Selah joined for one song but preferred to hang out in the Gingerbread House. This photo made our county paper. Incredibly, Robert posed for the picture. (Okay, maybe not "incredibly," but surprisingly!) We didn't know it made the paper until our neighbor called to tell us he'd seen it.

The Wright Kids were followed by a 14 member flute choir in one of our meeting rooms. The paper published this photo of mine also.
This Christmas event is always an exciting and busy evening. I look forward to it, and I'm also glad it comes only once a year!

Pretty soon you're going to have another job - shooting photos for the paper!
You are becoming quite the published photographer! Great job. :-D
