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.
One tradition that I used to love was piling the family into the old station wagon and heading out into the neighborhoods to hunt for Christmas lights.
No matter what the holiday, we always love getting extra festive. It's not like we need an excuse to wear awful Christmas sweaters or take part in a harmless snowman prank, but doing that stuff during the season makes us look a little less crazy. The season also provides the perfect excuse to go way overboard in the decorating department.
If Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a drive to see the holiday light displays, you must get your carload of Christmas joy seekers to Clearwater for thousands of Christmas lights synchronized to music.
With Thanksgiving 2011 in the history books, a lot of people are going to be breaking out the Christmas decorations. Be careful, though. Apparently you can ruin your holiday with poor decoration placement.
