Christmas Lights Tour

This is Dove Street. Each year, every house on the block puts up huge amounts of lights and Christmas displays. It goes for about 3 weeks over the holidays. You can drive through it or walk. Some nights there is live music, Santa for pictures and neighbors passing out treats. They take collections for a local charity and make a lot of money each year. We drove through last year on Christmas Eve - it took 2 hours because the lineup was so long. This year we walked and had a lot of fun but there wasn't nearly as many lights overhead as there usually is. Last year it was a complete canopy of lights across the oak branches.

Dace started exclaiming "Wow!" when he sees lights a few days ago. It is the cutest thing ever and he only says it for christmas lights. I tried getting it on video. He says it twice near the beginning but you have to listen really carefully. Hopefully Christmas morning will bring a better example of it.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone!
