It
is a tradition in our family to see Christmas tree lights! It has been
a bit more difficult these days to get in all the traditions we had
from before and doing all the new things that our new city has to offer.
One of the traditions I try to hold on to is seeing Christmas lights.
Driving
around our beloved New Town gave one the opportunity to see both lovely
and whimsical lights. I love a combination of sights, not just
elegant, but the tacky and gaudy and the ones that are lovingly placed
by amateur hands. I love the blow ups and the mixing of colored lights
and white lights. I love it all.
Come
along with me for a tour of the lights of New Town. Some of my photos
did not turn out, so forgive me if your lights are not on my tour!

But my favorite lights might just be these simple gas lights that surround our neighborhood. They have been turned off for years but with the help of Laclede Gas and our city councilman Rod Hermann, they were turned back on this year! They are elegant and add such a complete holiday atmosphere! Thank you!

ReplyDeleteToday, I want to share a little part of my bedroom with you! I love decorating for Christmas! This year, now that I am married, I wanted to show you how I like to spruce up my bedroom for Christmas! I got many of these smaller pillows at Target this year! The smaller ones are from the dollar section at Target! The red/green make it a little more festive! My nightstand has HotSkwash pumpkins on them! I have a lot of these! They are so addicting! Each pumpkin is hand made using real pumpkin stems! They come in so many fun colors!
