The town has restored many of its homes to their 1850s charm and draws visitors each year to shop in its charming shops and The Blue Owl, a restaurant that was featured on Oprah, The Food Network, The Today Show and The Travel Channel! They are famous for their Mile High Pie. We had it and it was amazing!!!
My favorite spot, though, was The Christmas Haus, a Christmas shop on the edge of town. Walking up to it is so exciting! There is a large front porch with comfy chairs and a large Santa. Continuing into the shop, you can go left or right. I headed right. Already there were several decorated trees waiting for me! Many nativity sets and large Santas were displayed throughout. The shop carries Byers Carolers and Baldwin Brass, too. I also found this adorable Magical Elf Ornament, which is going to be a giveaway today for one lucky reader!

Isn't this sweet? A lot like Elf on the Shelf, but little. He's about 2 inches high. I'll mail him anywhere in the US and Canada.
Do you enjoy Christmas shoppes, too? When I am traveling, I like to be on the look out for a Christmas shop. It is my favorite place to get a souvenir!
I do enjoy Christmas shops and will visit them when I travel, as possible. One time, visiting my daughter in Nevada, a local country shop was having a pre-Christmas open house in the fall when I was there. You can be sure I visited the shop for that, and found some lovely souvenirs to bring home.
