The Lights

UPDATED!

2011

We were able to do a bit more this year with the show and hopefully we will implement everything… Currently

• Adding red icicles to the display.
• We have 2 new songs synchronized.
• Likely adding a green canopy to the front tree.
• Expanding rear tree to have a much higher red/white spiral.
• Integrating one of the bushes in the yard that we have left out before.
• Integrating Green, White and Red lawns lights.

2010

We haven’t done much this year – been very busy with work and we have a 3 1/2 year old!

• Rebuilt the 8 Sparkle Balls
• Rewired Garage to move the “power grid”
• Replaced 60% of the lights on the display
• Wrapped front tree with 4800 white lights this year
• Have 3 new Green/White trees to add – maybe before Christmas

2009

• 10 New Spiral Trees – 5 Green / 5 White
• Working on Snowflakes and Christmas Trees with holographic film and lights
• Working on new songs – may not have the time!
• Synchronizing a few items this year to be more involved!
• Working on new palm leafs this year – last year they were too heavy and damaged our palm tree in the front!
• Need to re-install the DVR system and cameras – we will be adding a few flood lights this year just to help with the dark areas – the night vision is truly amazing though!  YES – We have SECURITY CAMERAS!  We have a few kids that cause problems – but we mainly want to make sure people stay safe!  There is a lot of electricity running through our yard and we want people behind the fence on the sidewalk!
