This Little Light of Mine

'Tis the season to be jolly and I can't get out of my head:

"This little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine..."

And all around, people are letting their lights shine bright.

 The creativity, individuality, and all-out exuberance;

this just can't be missed each December.

Our community buildings take on a new glow...

...especially the library.

It is tradition to visit the local bottling plant's big display.

My favorite part is the Grinch and Whos of Whoville.

The singalong "Twelve Days of Christmas" is fun too.


Instead of waiting all year for a big lights display, I want to keep my
new tree up all year, and that works best with low wattage LED lights.

A big reel of LED lights from Goodwill.  Super-score!


 Uschi "helps" string the lights on the tree.


Gorgeous in the light...


...and in the dark too.

 Tanji makes sure its T-approved (even better than UL approved).

 Uschi is in love, this is apparently going to be HIS tree.

Adorable.

This may be Uschi's Christmas dream come true.
