The Joyful December Vibes For Us.

Our Christmas Home

Bringing joy to those we know or find along the way.

Disclaimer: My wife and I have been putting on Christmas displays for over 25 years. In that period of time, thousands of people have toured our home.

What began as a simple question has grown to a point where small children and quite a few large ones love to find the Christmas spirit in our home.

Since Christmas 1995, we began to display what our grandchildren and others (including ourselves) would want to see. In 1994 we were married, and our first Christmas had very few decorations but still had the spirit. My wife asked, “Do you love decorating for Christmas?” Without hesitation, I gave her my TRUE answer, “Yes, I said we should show our grandchildren how we feel about Christmas. Why don’t you get whatever we need.”

There, that’s how it happened. I did it. I told her to get what we needed. She and I have been collecting from all over the world ever since.

We have eighteen grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Of those, only six are under twenty-one. All of the great-grandchildren are under ten.

Circumstances have now changed, and our ability to decorate elaborately as we’ve done in the past may be something from the past. Here’s the front of our home for this year. If you click on the credit line below the picture, you’ll be taken to all the pictures taken of our home (inside and out) in 2019 before the pandemic.
