Christmas Lights


Christmas Lights

Last night after work my brother, sister-in-law and I drove through one of Reno's neighborhoods called Hidden Valley where many homes are nicely decorated. Hidden away on one circle we found this home. Boy this one was a delight to find.

The visit with my 4-month-old nephews is going great. I'm coming down with the aching-stuffy-head-caughing-and-can't-sleep-even-with-that-medicine cold/flu that has been going around the office and so I'm not giving as many hugs and kisses as I'd like.

Now that the weekend is coming, hope everyone has a nice Christmas with family and friends.

    Beautiful lights!
    Wish I'd taken more time and put some out this year. Nothing says holidays like lights glowing in the dark.

    That house looks awesome!

    We have something called Christmas Tree Lane in Fresno. The longest in the world, they claim. It's really cool - all kinds of houses lit up, with music playing. It's at least 5 miles. The kids love it.

    Merry Christmas!

  3. Gorgeous picture! Have a wonderful visit and great holidays! BTW - my contest winner asked for a copy of Immortal Lovers out of all my available print titles, so someone will be reading Never a Sunset on Christmas Day!

    Wow, the house looks gorgeous! Great job, whoever put that up!

    Our town does a "Christmas Wonderland in the Pines" every year. The entire town is strung up with lights. They spend at least half the year putting up lights, the other half taking them down. lol

    Hope you have a very Merry Christmas, Annalee!

    What a beautifully done up house!

    I love looking at all the lights this time of year. Growing up we would pile into the car and drive around town Christmas Eve looking at the lights, carols playing softly on the radio.

    Nowadays, most people drive through the Holiday Fantasy in Lights at one of the local parks. We went through after the Pageant at the Capitol earlier this month and the look of wonder on my niece's face - both when she saw the huge tree at the Capitol and the light displays - was priceless (she'll be 2 Dec 28). Gotta love this time of year with little ones!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS, Annalee!

    The owners of that house-or whoever put up those lights-are obviously crazy about Christmas!

    Have a Merry Christmas Annalee, and a safe and happy New Year. Hope all your 2007 hopes and wishes come true.

  8. You know in Finding Nemo, the fish that goes crazy for bubbles? That's how I am with lights. I just want to scream and try and catch them all. lol

    Anyway, feel better honey. It sucks to be sick. And enjoy your nephew. :) Nothing like having a baby around.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
