We are usually the last in our neighborhood to do anything seasonal. Always the last to mulch every Spring, last to plant annuals in the Summer, last to put out the Halloween scarecrow (this year he sadly didn’t make it out at all!), and of course last to hang the Christmas lights. But… not THIS YEAR!

Ok, so we went a smidge overboard. Last Christmas due to a family death we did not even put up a tree so this year the spirit of the season has struck us early and my husband (AKA: Jason ‘Griswold’) had to show off his fancy light work. I am now proud to announce our home is the official emergency landing strip for Bluegrass Airport.

Being the first house on our block, maybe even the neighborhood to roll out the festivities has its perks, for instance:
 

  • Neighbors we have never talked to have actually CALLED us (on the phone!) To say the house looks great, admiring our house put them in the holiday spirit too.
  •  When driving down my street on a dark and rainy night there is no need to squint to see the road or identify the exact place to turn into the   driveway. 
  • It’s done! One more thing checked off my holiday to do list!
  • We just received word that the neighborhood association is having a house decorating contest. We're in it to win it!
  • Finally, it’s really nice to be welcomed home after a long day of trying to sell other people’s houses to something this cheerful and warm. 



Happy Holidays!

 

 

 

I apologize for the poor picture quality, they were taken with a camera phone. The pics really don't do it justice, the house is ALOT brighter than it looks here.

Good luck on winning your contest.

My wife would like to win ours and tries, but is so outspent by one of the neighbors that no one else really has a hope of winning.

But we all keep decorating to our own taste anyway.

"our home is the official emergency landing strip for Bluegrass Airport."  Cute Analogy!
