Santa Claus is officially coming to town!
Locals rung in the holiday season this past weekend with several holiday-themed events designed to get locals into the Christmas spirit.
In Houma. the Downtown Christmas Festival and Parade rolled on Saturday afternoon and evening – an event which also featured a meet and greet with Santa.
Hundreds of locals turned out to humid, but dry conditions after Thursday and Fridays rains.
The event was fun for all and reminded locals that the holiday season is supposed to be a time where friends and families come together to celebrate the meaning of the holiday.
“The look on his face is why we came” said Houma native Lindsey Breaux. while talking about the smile her B-year-old son. Connor had when looking at Santa Clans. “I think there is so much fighting And drama in the world. When we can sit back And enjoy one another’s company for a little while. I think that’s good for the world “
Berwick native Monica Williams said she ma shopping at Southland Mall with her two boys and one girl when she heard shoppers talking about the parade.
The family planned to shop, then return home, but decided instead to stick around for a chance to enjoy the holiday season.
“We were home alone. The kids1 daddy is offshore, SO we decided. ‘What the beck? Left go to the parade. Williams said. And we don’t regret that we did. It was a very good time. I enjoyed myself. The kids enjoyed themselves. It was a lot of fan for everyone.”
In Lockport a celebration to light the town’s tree was postponed from this weekend to last night, but the Lockport Christmas Festivities and Parade rolled as scheduled.
