Have a Holly, Jolly, Holiday Time in Houston!


December in Houston is one of our favorite times of the year. We may not get heavy snowfalls, but it’s truly a magical time filled with great performances, parades, and festivals. If you’re in town for the holidays, or a local that’s looking for some festive plans, read on for some great ideas on holiday events in Houston!

A Christmas Carol- A Ghost Story of Christmas
Returning this year to the Alley TheatreA Christmas Carol- A Ghost Story of Christmas is a classic that is loved by many. The story follows Ebenezer Scrooge’s journey through time with the three Christmas ghosts. We’ve heard great things about the cast, and that it is an artistic experience you won’t want to miss! The performance will run through December 30th.

Houston’s Ballet The Nutcracker
Who doesn’t love the tale of Clara and her Nutcracker prince? Stanton Welch’s production of The Nutcracker will be performed December 3-10th and December 30- January 6th. Due to the damage of the Wortham Center from Hurricane Harvey, the holiday ballet will be presented at The Smart Financial Center in Sugar Land and The Hobby Center for the Performing Arts in Downtown Houston. 

Festival of Lights
This festival of lights has been going on since mid November, but it’s still a wonderful event to see until January 7th! The Festival of Lights is hosted by Moody Gardens, and is the largest lighting event in the state! It features a 100-foot slide, ice skating, and a mile-long trail of lights and 100 sound-enhanced animated displays. Tell me that doesn’t sound like fun time with your family and friends!

Tomball German Christmas Market & Festival
Christmas markets are some of the best places to be during the holiday season, and you have the opportunity to go to one of the best starting December 8-10. Celebrate with some mulled wine and bratwurst in the old downtown streets of Tomball, Texas. There will be live musical performances, kids games, street performers, and more! The event is free, so come on down and see what this German tradition has to offer!

These are just some of the many events that our grand city of Houston has to offer this holiday season. We at the Camberg Law Firm wish you a safe and happy holiday season, and we hope to see you out and about with festive cheer!

The Many Heroes of Hurricane Harvey

Piece by piece, we have been rebuilding the city of Houston. In the midst of tragedy, it’s hard to keep the faith that things will get better. When someone is consumed by sorrow and hopelessness, things look bleak. We’re here to help and inspire those who are struggling. Through this natural disaster, many heroes (some known, many not) rose to the challenge of helping others who were in desperate need. We’d like to take a moment and recognize their efforts. “The Canoeing Surgeon” By far, one of our favorite stories that we have seen surface is the story of a doctor doing whatever it takes to perform a surgery on a patient. Pediatric surgeon Dr. Stephen Kimmel was called in to perform a surgery on 16 year-old Jacob Terrazas, who required immediate assistance. With the severe flooding, Kimmel couldn’t drive to the hospital, which was 10-15 minutes away. So instead, he spent over an hour canoeing, riding in a firefighter’s pickup truck, and even walked the last mile in waist-high w...
