I like them because we can focus on each one individually in the photos, which BTW, are wonderful. If you took them, you are quite the photographer!BR/BR/We have several places here in the suburbs of Sacramento, California that do over-the-top displays where each house tries to outdo the other. One has a Disney theme. The homeowners association in this housing development actually "requires" by signed contract that the house do the Disney light theme every Christmas. Once is enough, I'm afraid. After awhile, there are so many lights and animations that I swoon from sensory overload. I love where each house "does their thing" and there is a mix in the neighborhood of beautiful, whimsical, sacred, and so on. Thanks for showing us how the tradition of outdoor holiday displays shines the world over. What gorgeous displays, Kathie!
