Round Up: Events to Kick Off the Holidays

Ready to make some spirits bright? Or at least get a bit jolly with some spiked eggnog?

In an effort to procrastinate buying our Christmas tree this weekend (it just feels too early) I’ve been looking for festive distractions. And I found some. I’ll be hanging with the DIY sect at Seattle Center. How about you?
