Luke 2:8-20
Any time is a good time to see our Christmas decorations. We've designed our display to be attractive during the DAY as well as at night. In fact, some of our decorations, especially the large ornaments hung from the large trees in the yard are only fully appreciated during the day. In addition, we activate our 17 inflatables in the morning for the drive to work (7-9), at lunch (11:30-1:303) and late afternoon before sunset. (4-6)But of course the granddaddy of the display is our synchronized musical light show which starts on the hour and half hour (starting at 6:00 PM and ending at 11:00 PM) and runs approximately 20 minutes. The music is played on outdoor speakers if you wish to park your car and walk around the display or you may tune your radio to 97.7 FM to hear the music from the comfort of your car.
The show begins on the first Sunday of Advent (the first Sunday after Thanksgiving) and ends on the Epiphany or All Kings Day (twelve days after Christmas).
So what does our show entail? Well each year we add a little something new and the display continues to grow.
For Christmas 2007 we will have in excess of over 40,000 lights, synchronized to Christmas songs. We have snow machines, 17 inflatables, a small train ride for young children, a mega tree, numerous "blow molds" (those plastic figurines), a creche or manger scene, and much more. You simply have to see (and hear) it.Songs/audio highlights planned for the 2007 display:

Mannheim Steamroller "Carol of the Bells"
Amy Grant "Unto Us"
Linus "The Meaning of Christmas" from A Charlie Brown Christmas
