Deck the halls and invite friends to stop by for a casual open house. Have guests serve themselves from a bountiful buffet of food and drink that will satisfy all ages, including hot chocolate for the kids and mulled wine for the adults. Then everyone can hang ornaments on the Christmas tree. It’s a great way to spark the holiday spirit.
