christmas lights

You can take a trolley ride, visit with Santa and enjoy the view at a traditional St. Cloud holiday get-together.

You get to pretend you're a super star with them--or at least, that's what I did. I got a little carried away...

My fiance and I are contemplating doing something a little differently with our Christmas lights this year. Yes, I'm already thinking about Christmas lights.

This is one of my favorite things to do every year!

If you were planning on doing an elaborate Christmas-lights show this year then basking in the glow of your neighbors' admiration and envy, forget it. Forever.

I've seen a few people on my street with their Christmas lights up and on already.  I personally think it's a little too early.

Many families have traditions for this time of year.  Some bake cookies while others shop on Christmas Eve.  I like to do something a little different.

It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas.

Fountain Valley, California resident Jan Stewart put up an incredible display of 56,000 Christmas lights on her home last year. The video went viral on YouTube racking up about a half a million views, so naturally, this year Jan went even bigger with her lights display, and it's costing her a pretty penny. Lucky for us, it's free to watch so check it out!

Used to be, we'd drive around the neighborhood to check out everyone's Christmas lights. Now we watch them on YouTube. Which is cool because these guys decorate better than any of my neighbors ever do...and even cooler, you don't have to have these guys as your neighbor!

We have seen tons of videos with houses that light up to music,  but here's one that actually matches the beat.  Even if your not a huge fan of the music you got to respect how well the two go together.

There are tons of light show videos on the net, but this one really stood out to me.   I am a very patriotic person that still loves this country and our military.  Here's to those helping to keep us free.
