Christmas lights

I love Christmas lights! The more the better. Now I do like my house to be tastefully lit up, but I like other peoples' houses to be gaudy. Weird, maybe, but we had a family friend whose whole house was lit up at Christmas time. It was so much fun to drive by. That's one thing we did sometimes was drive by houses that had lots and lots of lights. Remember the late 70s and the "energy crisis"--that did stop some from putting out their lights, but not all.

Amy's been busy putting out lights. These are in the house.

We put up our outside lights, but I don't need to decorate inside this year. Yeah!

That's got to be my favorite part of Nat'l Lampoon's Christmas Vacation--when they light the house up and the energy meters go nuts. I'm mostly done decorating inside.

Of course we love other's gaudy houses/displays! THEY are paying the electric bill! And I get to enjoy the lights! ;-)
