Every year it is traditional to
put up Christmas lights the weekend after Thanksgiving. This year is no
different. My husband started decorating with the lights around the house and
will probably get the rest of the decorations out tomorrow. Here’s a picture
taken with my cell phone. I’m Jewish, so I wanted blue and white for Israel and
Hanukah. We’ve had blue and white lights up for the past four years, but my
husband wanted red, white and blue to be patriotic this year. However, the
combination of the blue and red make purple, so it’s a little confusing. It
looks pretty, though. And, we’ve already gotten a lot of compliments on our
lights from our neighbors and friends on Facebook.
I’ve always loved Christmas
lights and enjoy driving through other neighborhoods to see their decorations
at night. My sister lives in a neighborhood that goes all out for the holiday
season! They close off streets and direct traffic in certain areas so there are
only pedestrians walking through the neighborhood. It’s a little crazy, but
really fun. I’m looking forward to seeing them next month. My sister also puts
up blue and white lights for Hanukah and so her house isn’t dark compared to
the rest of the street. It’s a sight to see.
The holiday season is upon us!
Enjoy it!
