The 12 Most Amazing Christmas Lights in Chesterfield, VA
Richmond Times Dispatch

It may not be like the shimmering lights of New York City, however, Chesterfield has a handful of houses that are beautifully decked out for Christmas. The homes that are mentioned on this list, are a "must-see" for everyone that lives in, or happens to be in Chesterfield, VA. Whether you are a "Christmas-aholic", or you just moderately enjoy the season, visiting these 12 houses should be number one on your holiday to-do list this year.


1. Bellbluff Dr.

For over 3 decades, this household has adequately illuminated their neighborhood during the holidays. From Santa to Spongebob, this house has it all. The lights run from Dec. 1st through Jan. 1st




2. "Christmas Court"

This little section of Chesterfield is absolutely unique. Dawnridge Court, commonly known as "Christmas Court," lights up their entire street. With a new theme every year, each house in the cul-de-sac contributes. It is truly a sight to see.




3. Spring Run Road

For the past few years, this spectacular home has lit up Spring Run with over 100,000 twinkling lights. I am fortunate enough to live near this house, thus I am privileged to see the beauty every time I leave the house.



4. Carol Anne Road

The house on Carol Anne Road is quite interactive. In order to take in all of the Holiday magic, they provide you with a trail to travel on. Also, Santa makes a visit on the weekends. The lights run from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. every night.



5. Highland Glen Drive

By far, this house has the most festive backyard that I've ever seen. As a tradition, this house has been lighting up over 65,000 lights on the back of its home for the past 20 years.


6. Millcrest Terrest

In order to spread Christmas cheer, this beautiful house in Brandermill displays over 60,000 lights.


7. Nicklaus Circle

A festive street name for a beautifully festive set of lights. I'm sure that St. Nick is extremely proud.


8. Carters Way

This house is scenic, beautiful and something that you simply must experience in person.


9. Canvasback Circle

Rather than drawing attention by draping their house with thousands of lights, this house displays an array of adorable inflatables, it immediately warms your heart.



10. Queensgate Road

With over 40,000 lights, this place is a true show stopper. It contains the perfect mixture of lights and inflatables; if you love Santa and Disney, this is the place to be.




11. Summerbrooke Road


Each year, the lights just get bigger and bigger. For almost a decade, this house has been inviting everyone to enjoy their overzealous decorations. When you're walking among their friendly and inviting spread, it's almost impossible to not be in the Christmas spirit.



12. Standing Oak Court

This house may not seem as busy or extravagant at first glance, however, the lights are set to your favorite tunes. When you're visiting, singing along is a necessity.





I hope that you find time to visit all of these tastefully tacky homes during this Christmas season. They are sure to leave you feeling undoubtedly merry and bright.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
