Merry Christmas!!

Last night, we went across town to a house that has computerized lights that literally dance to the music. Pretty impressive. It's about a $50,000 lighting job (not counting the massive stereo system that cranks Christmas music full tilt). Keep in mind, this is someone's house. Not a store or mall. People come from all over the place to see it, and there are hundreds of people standing in the streets in amazement. The adults are just as blown away as the kids (see look on Tim's face). With everything from trains and smoke machines to bubble machines and over 100,000 lights, the whole place goes to the beat of the music using a custom programmed computerized controlled system. In short, this place knocks your socks off. We stood there and watched for 20 minutes (at one house) and I still wanted to stick around when we had to leave!! Needless to say, Sophia was most impressed (and perhaps a little overwhelmed). Here's a video that shows a run through of all the photos we took...

So from the Drumm family to you, here's wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year. May the Lord bless you and your family with a wonderful time this year as you celebrate the birth and coming of our Messiah. Don't forget - the baby in the manger was born to die so that we could live. ...and he'll be coming back again to finish what began in Bethlehem.
