What are some places to go for a Christmas outting (one day)?

Every December, sometime on a random weekend (not Christmas break) my family and I go somewhere for a Christmas outing. I have lots of siblings ranging from 6-15 and I'm 18. Then there's my dad and my stepmother and my fiance. We live in New Jersey and we usually go somewhere in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, even Washington or Delaware. Last year we went to Smithville in New Jersey. Smithville is a shopping place with all these cute Christmas-like outlets that sell little knickknacks and stuff. THe year before that we went to Pettlers Village in New Jersey which is just like Smithville. The year before that we went to some place in Pennsylvania. It was some kind of Christmas workshop. It was cute. The year before that we went to New York City and saw the Rockettes/went skating/shopping/looked at the tree at Rockefeller Center/etc. The year before that we went to this light show in Washington DC. You get the point. Everyone wants to go to NYC except for my dad's new wife. My mom used to love NYC before she ped away and we'd go all the time. Well, Shannon (my stepmom) HATES New York City and won't go. SO we all have to think of another place. What is a place around where I said that has to do with Christmas. NO BEACHES/TROPICAL WEATHER/SUNSHINE! Where is a place that would fit in my list of places for Christmas? It should be at least a half and hour away.
