Lets See Your Holiday Lights!

[RichBrewer]

I wasn't going to put mine up this year but the family insisted. Now that they are up I'm kinda glad I did.

Come on all you Clark Griswalds out there! Show us your lights!

 

[EvilTOJ]

That's just beautiful, Rich. Christmas lights always look prettier in the snow too. I'm not putting up any lights this year due to divorce drama, but I can't wait to see everyone else's lights.

 

[Yooper]

Very nice! I'm a scrooge, I guess. I haven't even dug out my Christmas decorations yet for inside, let alone outside. I haven't decorated outside for years. I might put a christmas tree on the deck outside of the dining room window. I think that will look nice.

Your decorations really look nice, Rich.

 

[Dude]

Wow, Rich! Those look great!

Awesome thread...can't wait to see more!

 

[Bulls Beers]

Looks great...I love Christmas lights when there done just right..

 

[Yooper]

Doesn't anybody else have any pictures to show off? I'd love to see some more!

It's a good thing I did put mine up. I may be the only one!

Here I was expecting to click on this thread and find a sculpture all lit up with twinkling lights and tinsel.

 

[Brewiz]

Here's mine, as I am typing this we have all the windows open because it's in the 70's doesn't feel like Christmas.

 

[RichBrewer]

Bump!
No more decorated houses? Come on folks get out your cameras!

 

[RichBrewer]

OK! One more time!
Anyone else decorate their house?

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Bah Humbug. I don't even like getting a tree, much less outside lights. But the kids'll prolly whine if i don't, so if they go up, I'll take a pic. They're nothing special.

 

[WOP31]

I am not putting up anything this year because i am going to be in Florida. My old man said that he spent two weeks putting up lights "for his grand kid" I will post up some pictures when I get down there.


Cheers

We're not having our traditional Christmas at our house this year where everyone comes here.

I just came back from Korea late Sat afternoon, Sun was a day of rest, Tues was a major ice storm...

We are planning on tiling the basement floor (where everyone meets and eats) before Christmas then heading to Hawaii in Jan.

Some of the (married) grandkids aren't traveling for the holidays and our kids want us to come visit them instead, so we have 4-5 places to visit (instead of everyone coming here)...so no lights.

I'll try to get mine up later after work

I don't do lights (long story), but one of my buddies, and fellow brewer, went all out this year.

He's got about 20 big pine trees in his front yard. 15,000 lights, two 30 amp breaker boxes in his yard, an FM modulator, and 8 songs later, he's got all the lights synced up to a rotation of 8 songs on a loop broadcasting on FM for people to stop and sit in his very long driveway and watch/listen.

He's got a donation box out with all proceeds going to a local charity. I'll see if I can get some video of it to link to.

 

[JustDave]

It's a work in progress

That's not mine. Yeah, I got nothin'

 

[cheezydemon]

OK! One more time!
Anyone else decorate their house?

Yes! but not yet. My wife's rule are simple:

No colored lights, no blow up thingies.

White lights and wreaths. It looks nice every year, I will post in a week or so.

That dude's crazy, man. But at least he's donating to charity.

I put a Santa snow-globe blow up in the front yard and some ribbons on the lights. Pretty weak. It snowed here before I had a chance to put up my lights.

 

[McKBrew]

I should have mine finished up by the end of the weekend.

 

[Evan!]

I really would like to see that guy's power bill for the month of december.

I don't have any lights on the outside---just inside---but I will say that those damn "icicle" lights are the bane of the season and should be outlawed.

I told SWMBO I'm going to do that one of these days. I hate decorating for Christmas. Good job.

 

[DUCCCC]

Not too original, but the kids like it just the same...

And the porch a little closer up:

 

[EvilTOJ]

Daveyboy, that house must register at least 2500 milliGriswolds on the christmas light scale!

 

[c.n.budz]

Here's the extent of my Christmas decorations this year, a whopping $11 worth...

I'm not doing the light thing this year. Infact SWMBO had to insist, before we got a table top tree this year. But before SWMBO and I met, I rented a room from my twin sister and my BIL. Here's the lights that my BIL and I put up.

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Here's ours. We didn't get too crazy.

I thought this tree pic turned out pretty nice as well. If anyone is keeping up with the digital camera thread, this pic was taken with the Lumix FX07 in "Night Scenery" mode with only the lights from the tree illuminating the foreground. Check out the blurred train beneath the tree.
