Outside decorations

Day 24: How do you feel about outdoor holiday decorations? Are you a fan of the giant inflatables? Prefer a minimalist approach? Have firm preferences on the color of the lights?

I am a big fan of outdoor decorations.  We not only decorate our house, but we do our neighbor's lights too (they are elderly).  We have white icicle lights on our house, along with a tree and wreath that both light up.  In our yard, we have a giant inflatable reindeer pulling Santa out of a chimney (yep we even have animated).  We have actually toned down our decorations over the years.  Mainly due to lack of time.  

I love to put out lights and go look at lights.  It brings such a festive feeling.  Unfortunately, because of all the melting ice, one set of our lights is now on the ground.  When my husband gets them back up, I will take a picture of the front of my house and post it.

    1. It was a mostly good day. I got to sit and talk with my sister who I haven't seen in a couple of years (even though she lives 20 minutes from me).

  3. I love to see lights. Sadly around here outdoor decorating (for Christmas AND Halloween) is on a severe decline. :(

    1. That's no fun. We love to get in the car and go look at lights. I remember doing it as a kid and it was so fun.
