I'm pretty excited. Dale and our oldest grandson are on the way to our Collinsville storage unit to pull out the buildings that make up our Christmas Tiny Town. For at least ten years the town has been placed in the side yard of our seminary house. We added lighted trees around them and it was such fun. Kids came by to play with the farm toys we put into the barn, adults just walked through for the novelty of it.
I have no idea how this is going to work in a much smaller space that is our front yard now, but we are going to give it try. Our neighbors have no idea about this as yet and I hope they won't be horrified. What makes me happy is seeing some of our other neighbors already having put up outside decorations. This is new for our street and I believe it is because there are newer families with kids. The neighbor across the street had a professional service come out and hang light across the roof line. Next to that is a family who placed big inflatable Santa and snowman along with lights.
Christmas on Tillotson will be different this year and I'm happy.
