The Governor's Carol Lighting was last Sunday. It has become a bit of a tradition to start the Christmas season by going to sing carols, listen to
hand bell and children's choirs, and to just welcome the season that celebrates the birth of Christ at the state house here in Columbia. It was a cool and beautiful night as we said "goodbye" to Thanksgiving and "hello" to Christmas! Above, Mimi and Nanny look to see Rivers' expression as she sees the tree light up.
