Bah Humbug AMAZINGNESS

Ever since I was a child, I've loved seeing Christmas lights. I lived in Dallas until I was 8. I've never forgotten the Christmas lights for a particular house on my street. Similar to this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jtuason/2125543459/ (Sorry. It's copyrighted, so you'll have to click on the link), the owners had spelled out on their lawn the words "BAH HUMBUG". The letters stood upright, about three feet tall.

I've loved seeing some really great houses this year. One of them (the picture below) was--I was sure--the most amazing house. (Can you tell I was in my car for the last picture? Well...think of it as going along for the ride.) Only two hours later I saw the best house I've ever seen. Ever. Ever ever ever ever.




The thing is, what you see above was NOTHING compared to what I saw later that night. It was so amazing that I had to take video for you. It took three videos to capture everything. This is a totally house, but you still have to get out of the car and walk around it to see everything. There are even themed window displays, one for Santa Clause figures, another for teddy bears, and yet another for cartoon characters (think Big Bird and Marvin the Martian). If you were here, I'd take you to see it first thing.

(I'm having trouble getting the videos to load, so you'll just have to go with the first one until I can get the other two uploaded!)

I remember that house in Dallas too! I'm so glad you're getting your Christmas light watching done!
I love you!
