    WOW, Susie...that is gorgeous. I was going to ask if you decorated the bathroom also, but just kept watching and saw that you did. How long does it take you to get all this set up? You did a beautiful job. Do you collect snowmen? I do... and have hundreds.

    Susie your home and your Christmas decorations are fantastic. People must stop and stare when they see your home as it's just so beautiful with all the lights and Chrissie garden ornaments. The wreaths are lovely especially the one with the blue in it and I think your mailbox is cute!!! Thank you for letting us share your home and garden. Have a wonderful Christmas. :stew1:

    Thank You

    Thank you both, it takes hubby and I about a week, inside goes up fast, outside takes the longest, the icicle lights are on the entire house, which takes time, plus some of lawn decor needs to be assembled. And yes, many cars go by slowly, and it can be seen from blks away over empty lot's, it's what we do for Xmas, what we enjoy for as long as we can do it?(we're old) LOL, no I don't collect snow ppl. just love the blue ones, and my blue Santa! I have 2 huge totes of ceramics,& decorations, I have not put out for a few years, just too much.. Today we added lighted presents to the sleigh and carriage, got to keep hubby out of the stores!!

    Such a lovely holiday display, SusieQ, wish I were near to see it live. :D I'd go by slowly too, to take it all in. I especially like the entrance area when it's dark, it gives me a good Christmas feeling.

    Your island looks very inviting with all those lights, and the palm trees.

    What a pleasure to see your home, yard and christmas decorations.
    I like all that white--it looks nice and spaceous. That particular tint of blue looks so well with it too.
    It was so thoughtful of you to include some daytime and twilight fotos to show how it looks during the day (just as lovely).
    I can see that it would indeed take a long time to get it all set up.
    Well, you did a great job. Congrats...and have a great holiday season.

    Your house and garden are beautiful Susie. What a lot of work must have gone into decorating. I particularly like the photo outside with the setting sun in the background. Do you have a big party at Christmas time so everyone can enjoy your decorations? Thanks for taking us into your home.
    I wish you and your husband a wonderful Christmas :stew2:

    I tried but couldn't see anything, it said I needed a password. You must of changed something since you posted.

    I couldn't see it as it says enter your password. Did you change it back so we couldn't view it or sign out?
