Christmas Lights

We went with the Finlays this year to look at all the great Christmas lights in Reno. There are a few houses with lights synchronized to music, so we headed out to see them. The kids had a lot of fun in the back seat together. Alli and Ethan taught Liam some new Christmas tunes. It was so cute to hear their sweet little voices singing together. It was *quite* chilly that night, so we had to stop at Starbucks for some Hot Chocolate and some Caramel Apple Ciders. Do you think the kids like it? This picture cracks me up.This is one of the houses in the http://www.projectxmas.com/ display. It is synchronized to another house. They have about 7 or so songs. It was very cool. I think only one third or so of the lights are lit up in this photo. It was even snowing, perfect for Christmas spirit. This is another house synched to music. They only have two songs, but the lights are done really, really well and the music is really neat. This is a crummy picture, but this is the house all lit up after the song finished.And this is the house that Wes and I lovingly refer to as the "Christmas Throw Up House." The lights all flash, blink, at different times. They have blow-ups galore, projectors, deer that flash, snowflakes. Yeah. It's really funny anyway.
And this is how sweet little Ashlyn spent our fun evening. How cute is she?!
