Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
A fantastically lit-up house in St. Charles County. If you can't tell, we really enjoy Christmas, especially decorating outside. Each year, we synchronize the Christmas lights to 'dance' to Christmas songs. We also do a Halloween light show.

Like most who go to the extreme in decorating, I started out small, like normal people.  I remember my parents would decorate a pine tree in the front yard with C9's and put up a nativity scene.  The nativity scene still goes out each year.  It wasn't until I got married and bought a house that I started doing my own decorations.  With our first house I would put some lights on the gutter, maybe a bush or two and around the windows.  I'd add a small amount of lights each coming year.  At this point I was probably topping out at 2000 lights. 

This lasted several years until we moved into our current house.  I started out relatively small, just doing the roof lines with your standard icicle lights.  The years following I would add more lights until I eventually topped out around 40000. 

It wasn't until Christmas 2005 when a friend mailed me the video of Carson Williams famous Wizards Of Winter synchronized light show that I got hooked.  I made it my goal to synchronize my lights for the 2006 season.  After some research I decided on thehardware and software I was going to use and spent the next 8 months programming varioussongs that I liked and had a good beat.

Each year I try to add a little more to the display.  See the What's New page for my current plans.

Why go to one of those parks, pay your $10, just to see a million lights that were thrown in the trees.  Anyone can throw lights in the trees.  Those places need to upgrade and give you a light show worth seeing.  Until that time you can come see my lights and others like them for free.
