Rocking Around the House

On Saturday night we went for a drive to see Christmas lights. Our neighborhood had more lights compared to everything else we saw. It seems like this year nobody is celebrating Christmas; or if they are, they are celebrating it for the wrong reasons.  I think everybody forgets what Christmas is really about: the birth of Christ.

There was one particular house that we saw that was unbelievable. The owners had their own radio station and the lights on the house would coordinate with the music. The music was classical with some rock edge to it, which I loved, and there lights would blink on and off according to the music. My favorite part of it was the little snowman and shark that were in the grass. The snowman had a chunk of his butt that was bitten off as he was trying to swim away from the shark that had bitten him. It was pretty hilarious. There was also a Santa Claus that was swinging in a hammock.

We also put our lights up yesterday, but it did not look as cool as that house. We have some blinking stars and a string of LED lights around the house, which looks really cool! It finally felt like we were in the holiday spirit yesterday from putting the lights up and the tree to all the baking we are doing.
