Do you all have Christmas traditions? We have a few, and this one was added a few years ago!
My parents are here visiting from sunny Arizona. After going out to dinner last night, we decided to take them on a little fieldtrip to see some Christmas lights.
There are two houses here in Westfield that put on quite the light show! They're the crazy houses with the lights set to music. Great to look at, but I'm quite certain that if I lived next door, I probably wouldn't feel so warm & fuzzy about it. ;)
After going to visit this house over the years, we've found the perfect viewing spot. If you're right in front of it, you're too close & unable to see all of the lights. BUT, if you're caddy-corner (yes, that's a midwest phrase) & across the street, you can see everything! While my video skills could use some work, I'm essentially blaming this one on my phone -- it wouldn't allow me to zoom while I was recording!! And, please disregard the running commentary in the background. My kids & my dad were discussing who was going to beat who within our family fantasy football league. Ha!
It's kind of neat because both houses have a different feel to them. The one in the video has catchier music & is easier to sit and watch a lot of the show. The other one has more religious music (which is really great), but the traffic gets pretty backed up, therefore not allowing you to sit & watch it as long. However, as an added bonus, several houses along that street are participating, so as you're having to wind around, you at least have entertainment now!
Enjoy this little snippet. I recorded the entire song, but between Facebook, my phone & this website, it will only allow me to show 54 seconds of it.
Please tell me some of your Christmas traditions!
