It’s time to start figuring out how you’re going to make time for all those memories this holiday
season. Decide when you’re going to shoehorn in that visit with Santa; schedule your holiday cocktail experiments; find the time to bruise your tailbone at a nearby ice-skating rink. So much to do between now and Christmas Day—so much pressure to do the Yule right. That’s what makes the Dallas Arboretum’s 12 Days of Christmas a no-brainer: an over-the-top display of 15-foot gazebos, fully decked out with decorations that represent each day of the popular Christmas carol. There will be maids-a-milking, colly birds, French hens and other various and sundry Christmas staples for true loves everywhere, festooned with 30,456 wooden berries and 28,328 rhinestones—all making for a glittery, family-friendly Christmas memory in a lush green package. And the best part is that it’s so easy on your calendar—open daily from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. from Sunday until Sunday, January 4, with evening hours from 6 p.m. until 10 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays and on weekends including November 28 and 29; December 26 and 27; and January 2 through 4. Tickets for daytime admission are $10 to $15; evening admission is $10 to $20. Visit dallasarboretum.org.
Mondays-Thursdays, Sundays, 6-10 p.m.; Mondays-Sundays, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.; Last Friday, Saturday of every month, 6-10 p.m.; Saturdays, 6-10 p.m. Starts: Nov. 16. Continues through Jan. 3, 2014
