The days may be getting shorter and the weather cooler, but there are plenty of fall and holiday activities coming up this November that you don’t want to miss! Here are a few of our favorite upcoming events that are fun to enjoy with friends and family.

And remember, if you fall in love with a new area of town when you are out and about (or if your out-of-state visitors do) make sure you give me a call to tour some homes! It is always an honor to help my clients find their next home.
