Christmas treats and lights

It has become a tradition for me to make peanut cluster at Christmas time. This year one evening it was just Tory and I at home we didn't really have much to do other than the usual loads of laundry, which I try to find every excuse in the book not to do. So making some treats and going to look at Christmas lights sounded like a good idea. After we got all the peanut clusters wrapped up we loaded into the car and went out on our little adventure.
Here are some of the beautiful lights that we saw....This house had all its light hooked up to a music box so that the lights would blink to the beat of the music.

Only in North Idaho would you see a blow up Santa riding a twinkle light decorated ATV. It made me smile though.

And last but certainly not least is our light extravaganza. This is Carl's pride and joy, it probably took him a total of 2 days , 2 melted extension cords, hundreds of twinkle lights, 4 reindeer, one prelit tree, 8 prelit twig branched and a new breaker( thanks to Carl's cousin Enoch) to put up all our lights. Thankfully he was able to get everything done before we got any snow. It sure looks amazing. He did a wonderful job, Tory and I are greatful to be able to have a beautiful festive house for Christmas.
