Amazing Holiday Light Shows

One of my very favorite things to do, during the Holiday season, is check out Christmas lights. Since there aren't too many elaborate displays around my neighborhood, at least not yet, I started looking around on www.youtube.com to see if there were any neat ones that I could share with our daughter. I was amazed by what I found, so I decided to share them with you as well. They are awesome. I wish someone in my neighborhood would do something like this. Our daughter goes crazy for regular light displays. I can only imagine her reaction to seeing something like this in person.lol

Christmas Lights Gone Wild

How do people do this? Great show for sure. I love the peace sign they have included too.


Frisco Christmas Lights - Wizards in Winter

This one has way more lights in it than the first one. I wonder how long it took them to put all those out. I love the stars on the roof of the house.


42,000 Christmas LED Lights Dance to Coca Cola Holiday Song

Not sure how much I like the Coca Cola song but, this house is amazing!


Animated Christmas Lights- Bagpipes Merry Christmas

I just love bag pipes so this one immediately caught my eye.


So what do you think? I wonder how long it takes to put those light shows together? All I can say is that it must take a lot of money, planning, and time. What’s the best light show you’ve ever seen? :o)

My Top 5 Christmas Movies

So how many of you are still full from Thanksgiving? I know I am.lol It went by so fast. Someone stop the clock! Christmas can't already be a few weeks away can it? I guess it's time to break out the tree and decorations. You know what it also means though right? Why it's also time for Christmas themed movie watching parties. Now, I know everyone has personal opinions about what makes a good Christmas movie. I think most people prefer nostalgic movies that make them think of their childhood but, I personally want to laugh myself silly. Give me a comedy anytime. Wow, now that I really think about it, I have to say that most of the movies I own are comedys but, I digress.lol I just like to laugh. So whip out the hot chocolate and marshmellows, here are my top 5 favorite Christmas movies.


5. How The Grinch Stole Christmas 2000
I loved this book as a kid and I love Jim Carrey movies so this is a win, win for me.lol How could you not like it?


4. Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas 1993
Now, I know this isn't your typical Christmas movie. In fact I think most everyone considers this a Halloween flick but, I love it. It centers around Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King, who gets bored with Halloween. On a walk, through the woods, he discovers Christmas time but, doesn't really understand the concept of it. Now, he wants to bring Christmas to everyone, and is planning to take over the job from Santa. Some of the "presents" that get delivered are something else.lol


3. A Christmas Story 1983
"Ralphie" Parker wants only one thing for Christmas -- an official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot range model BB rifle with a compass in the stock. Too bad everyone, including Santa, thinks he will just shoot his eye out. Grownups can be such a downer can’t they?


2.Christmas Vacation 1989
This is another movie with that lovable family the Griswolds. All Clark wanted was a fun-filled old-fashioned family Christmas. Too bad he didn't get it. He has the worst luck.lol


1. The REF 1994
This has got to be the greatest Christmas movie of all time. I absolutely love Dennis Leary in it. He plays a burglar, who gets abandonded by his partner in the middle of a heist, and ends up having to take a family hostage. He realizes real quick though that he got more than he bargained for when the couple's blackmailing son and despicable in-laws step into the picture. Before long they're driving him nuts with their petty bickering and family problems. He ends up having to play referee between everyone and it is just hilarious. You must watch this movie. :o)


Have you seen the preview's for "Four Christmases" yet? It looks hilarious. I have a feeling that it will be on my list next year. Hopefully, it will anyway.lol So that's my list of fav's. What do you think?
