Christmas Lights

Yesterday I promised I would try to find something good to blog about today. . . and I am not going to disappoint!

Last night we finally got around to visiting that neighborhood with all the Christmas lights (remember we tried the weekend before Christmas, but there was too much traffic and people trying to see all the pretty lights?) . I know Christmas is over, but Chip got busy and sick and we never made it back, so we thought we'd try again just to see what all the fuss was about. It is a beautiful neighborhood and the majority of people put up some lights and a few people went all out. Just having every house lit up in someway really made it pretty! You can even take horse drawn carriage rides through the neighborhood -- but we just drove.

Anyway, we got to the street that was causing all the traffic to backup and it was another house with the lights choreographed to music on a local radio station. It is super cool and they had TONS of lights, but I was a tad disappointed since we had already seen 2 homes like this with no wait at all before, I couldn't imagine how I would have felt if we waited an hour!

So we stopped and watched the light show. The people who lived in the house already scored points with me since they had a leg lamp all lit up in the front window -- a major award! So that was cool . . . but then this happened. I whipped out my camera as fast as I could and caught one of the greatest Christmas moments ever.

Watch and enjoy:

How great is that? I mean who uses a snippet of that song for a holiday display?? They are my new heroes!
