Students were dressed in bright red and green with costumes ranging from Santas and elves to packages and reindeer. Despite the warm temperature that had become usual for this holiday, the Texas Christmas remained festive. . ,, S 1 N- ai' A Q Q ' l Christie Glenn opens a gift she received from her annual staff Santa Pal. r- 'U-2 Q3 I Where's Bing?
