*waves to the Threadies* omg...just got home from an incredible drive, taken with some of my siblings and friends. We took a look at 3 houses listed on the website: "Holly's Tacky Christmas Lights": http://www.fairfaxchristmaslights.com. She uses the word "tacky" as a good thing: From: someone I do not know who started calling extravagant Christmas displays Tacky Lights but, it has become a standard. For my purposes, Tacky is a term of endearment. I love each and every display appearing on this list. To me they aren't really Tacky in the true sense of the word, they're beautiful and creative. These are the 3 we saw: #14, which is tops on Holly's list: http://www.fairfaxchristmaslights.com/tcl2.php?rate=1&xid=1011. That house has its own website: http://www.collingwoodlights.com/index.phpIt's one of those lights displays which is synced with holiday music. All sorts of music, ending with music from the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. AWESOME. There are several youtubes, if you search Collingwood and lights.  The next one we saw, #28, was also a lights/music display: http://www.fairfaxchristmaslights.com/tcl2.php?rate=1&xid=1073 (sorry; no separate website) youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLI2P3Hq75wAnd the final one, #21, is on the list b/c the entire yard -- front, sides, and back -- and the house are covered in white lights. It was amazing. http://www.fairfaxchristmaslights.com/tcl2.php?rate=1&xid=1017 |

Something cool for music lovers... you may remember Fredo Viola's "Sad Song" music video that came out a while back; now he has done a lovely arrangement of "Silent Night". http://www.fredoviola.com/media/opus/silent_night. |

G'morning and/or g'night, thread-folks! So lesee... This weekend was all about th' holidays an stuff. So here's a few piccies of the stuff I did. I rezzed out and opened all the cards and gifts:  I also exchanged gifts with friends:  I put up all the "nose pix" (piccies of people in the "rudolph nose" I had in my gift box):  And I went out caroling at the Hau Koda info hub with friends:  I also went to the new build by AM Radio, did some building, took second at Show And Tell in Avaria with my Chia Noob, and did some exploring and other stuff too. Hope everybuggy had a super weekend and has a great week to come!

All night TV marathons are fun at the time, but I always suffer the day after :/ Ooo Hangout party - I might be able to make that one! /me crosses her fingers. Lil that avvie is so cute!! /me waves to Tod, Tex, 3 Hope you guys had a good christmas so far Litta, I love that gingerbread house, It looks like loads of fun! Heya Mari. Thats a lot of pressies! I bet it took you a while to open them all lol. I didn't know AM Radio had a new build, I'll have to check it out sometime soon. /me waves to Maureen. We have a few people around here that go overboard on christmas lights. Usually its not so bad, but there's one guy who manages to light up almost the whole street from his house lol. Some of them are really nicely done, I know a few of the ones round here are done for charity. Can you imagine the electricity bill next month?

From: LittleMe Jewell Morning all. Since I didn't have any proper pasties to go with my coffee this morning, I substituted a couple of the yummy gooey extra chocolaty brownies. Pasties???? I never heard of anyone using brownies as pasties, but that sure is an interesting idea. Oh and Hi everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday. |

I think it was the dancing cuz sometimes only one eye showed and sometimes none. I intentionally took the pic with the eyes cuz I thought that was extra cute.
