hometown hero

in every neighborhood, 
at every christmas season, 
there's one particular house (& i suspect one very enthusiastic dad behind it)
that's so lit up that anyone walking by at night
(within a ten mile radius) 
has no need for a flashlight. 

 and around here, that'd be robbie's neighbor.

    I always like these houses, I wish we did more lights. It is more work than I'm willing to undertake though!

    oh my goodness, so awesome! when we were driving around town before Christmas, we saw a house totally decked out like this one, and their neighbour had a sign out front that said "DITTO" in lights, definitely made us laugh. ;)

    we have one of those sort of houses! they have an inflatable carousel, "merry christmas" spelled out in lights on their lawn, and a giant santa! they still haven't taken the lights down, but thats okay, as they make me smile!
