One of those streets...

We are very fortunate-we live on "one of those streets." During the Christmas season quite a few of the neighbors put up lighted arches. At last count, our street had 23. It's so much fun to drive through at night. Then, on Christmas Eve, they light luminaries, walk down the street waving and saying "Merry Christmas" to the people driving by to see the lights. Then, a special person comes and brings gifts to the kids! Lots of fun:

A look at the arches:

Santa arrived on his "Deere"



Gifts for the kids: (notice the terrified Delainey clinging to mom!)

Santa can be a scary guy. Grace would not sit on Santa's lap until Caleb would do it first.

More wonderful posts. Thanks. It will be interesting to see what the height issues end out being when the kids are all grown. Love your street. They know how to do it up. Sally
