Christmas Lights

One of my favorite things to do this time of year is to look at Christmas lights. This year we took Mckaley to see a court in Mesa that is really spectacular. Each house on the court has their lights up and most have their own theme. One house was Disney characters, another was beach Santa, one was decorated for breast cancer, another was decorated to support the troops., and in one home, you even walk into their backyard where the entire story of the birth of Jesus is told using lights and figures. They all really do a good job. Most of the homeowners would set up a fire pit outside on their driveway and just hang out with everyone. I thought that was pretty neat. Tyler, Keegan, and my dad definitely liked the houses that had the garages up and had what we call a "man cave". There were 3 houses with these and many of them were decorated better than bars I have been in. I'm pretty sure every husband was nudging their wives, saying "see- she let him do it". For the record, I love you, but no chance Tyler! haha

I know the exact neighborhood you're talking about. We went there a few years ago. The lights are great but the garages are even cooler!
