Hi everyone, Chris here. I am the creator behind the lights. My wonderful wife Kendall does most the posting as I am more of a behind the scenes kind of guy. I am writing this as we just finished watching the lights as a family for the last time this season. As usual, I am constantly analyzing what worked, and what needs improvement. As the season wraps I am hyper focused on what could change, or be added to next year. Around mid October I usually tell myself “no more!”, but let’s face it, I can’t let it be. This project started as a fun hobby 3 years ago and I had no idea how it would turn out. After seeing the amazing reactions from so many people, it has become more than just a hobby. To me, this is a way to light up our community, and provide something truly positive during the holidays that everyone can enjoy, smile at and have a laugh at the lame dad jokes from Doug Fir. I have no idea what the future holds, but I plan to keep going. I learned that the previous home owners of our house also appreciated their fair share of Christmas cheer, so it’s my honor to continue that tradition. I truly appreciate all my wonderful neighbors that put up with me, and all the people who stop by, sing, honk, dance and just enjoy the show. I’m already scheming plans for next year. It’s bittersweet having to take down the lights, but we’ll be back. See you in the fall, have a wonder 2026!
