My wife and I have a novel approach to decorating for Christmas. We live in a neighborhood where people get down right competitive, there is even a judging and awards. most people opt for loads of those icicle lights, and traditional themed illuminated yard art of all shapes and sizes.

I decided rather then compete to make a different kind of statement. I put out about 120 full size snow goose hunting decoys that I no longer use much. They are all over the front yard with lights and we put little red bows on their necks.

I keep wondering if we will one day get a letter from the deed restriction people. Needless to say, I'm still waiting for one of the awards!
