Our display is animated with computer
controlled lights set to music, so still photos only capture some of the
experience. Please enjoy some photos from our
display, and you can watch some videos of our 2006 display
(which was the last one we videoed) once you are finished.
Here's
a view of the display from the corner where you turn on to our
street.
This
view shows part of our "Toyland" area.
A
view of the complete "Toyland" side of the yard.
A
view from a bit further back than the above picture.
It wasn't intentional, but the two pictures
above almost turned out to be a panorama of teh "Toyland" side of the
yard.
This
year marks the 10th season that Merry Christmas sign has
been a major part of our display. To celebrate, we changed the controller
so that it's synced to music like the rest of our show. For more
information on this sign, please click the previous link.
We
try to keep the front of our house mostly a Christian theme. As usual, our
Peanuts Nativity Pageant helps reenact that first
Christmas, and Linus shares the Gospel message through
projected slides, as he has done since 2000. To the left of this picture,
off-camera, is our large "Remember Jesus" sign.
For
reasons due only to sheer forgetfulness, our usual flock of Woodstock
"sheep" didn't make it out this year. We didn't notice this
until the ground was frozen too hard to put them out. They'll be back next
year!
Here's

Our
large "Remember Jesus" sign, to the
left of the Nativity.
Our
"Kneeling Santa and Christ Child" display. Even Santa takes the
time to honor the real meaning of the season.
A
few more assorted views of the display.
Our
2008 display included this Ferris wheel, donated from a generous neighbor who
has given us several other displays in the past. We thank them!
Still
more assorted views of the display.
A
view of the rear of our house (complete with icicles blown up on the roof,
oops!)
Planning for the display happens year round-- and we
keep a blog of thoughts as the year progresses. Click
