I am so blessed to have friends that invite us over for Christmas dinner. One set of friends recently moved to Virginia to be near their grandson. Luckily others have filled the Christmas void. We had Prime Rib, better than any restaurant, amazing Manhattans, and best of all great company.
After dinner and before dessert, we walked the neighborhood and saw more amazing light displays.
Of course the pictures do’t do this any justice. But it’s what I have..
Joel took a picture with Santa.
Animatronic Santa dances better than I do.
This house is the best, the owner hires a singer every night to sing carols along with the magical display.
Like a lovely diorama in an old TV. There was a Menorah as well, not sure where that picture went.
Its on someone else phone, so here we are with the tree instead.
It’s CA, you have to a Mickey or Minnie reference.
A number of trains on these tracks, another train ran along the roofline. What joy!
The Penguin themed house.
In Three D as well.
A huge live Christmas tree.
With presents and candy canes!
These beauties were painted over 50 years ago by the owners mother. On real thick plywood, what a tradition to put them up every year.
Then it was back to the warmth, more alcohol, good dessert and more joy and conversation.
A true blessing of the season
