Christmas Lighting Contest

[GrizzlyTaco]

Every year our Home Owners Association has a home Christmas lighting contest and last night was the judging and our house came in first place again. This is so cool! I dont decorate for that reason, i just like to, but it is nice to get the recognized for my efforts. We've lived in this house for 10 years and 9 years i've come in first place. I took 2005 off and didn't do any lights at all. The prize for winning is a giant Hickory Farm Gift Basket, so if anyone wants to come over to help me celebrate I have lots of cheese, crackers and sausage and a few sweets also. I just wanted to share, Thanks, Ed

Congrats Ed. However, the "I don't decorate for that reason" part....I call B.S.
Been there, done that and I know you get competitive.
 
And #2. Be Honest, You want everyone to come over and enjoy the Hickory Farms Basket about the time you have to take all that stuff down. Well I'm not takin the bait.  But thanks for the offer.
 
Nice work, and tell the family Merry Christmas from TheViking's family.
