Hi everyone. This is my second year decorating.
As each year gets bigger and bigger. There is all sorts of
things that the picture doesn't show, but you all know how that
works. One thing to point out is the new runway for Santa.
Too bad you cant see it flashing. I have close to 20,000
lights so far and many more are stored in the shed ready for
more planning next year. Hope yawl enjoy. The Adams
Family. Clayton, North Carolina

Merry Christmas to everyone. This is my 8th year stringing
Christmas lights. I took 30 pictures or so and couldn't seem to
get the whole house and both yards all in one picture. I really
wish I could show you my display with audio and video to see the
whole show but I guess you will have to drive by and check it
out. We are on the corner of 8th and Ford in Barberton. There
are 22,681 Computer Controlled Lights, 92 Independent Channels,
82.77 Amps. That come on at 5:30pm and shut off at 9pm
(Sometimes Earlier Sometimes Later). I'm already planning new
ideas for next year.

Merry Christmas from Pennsylvania!!
Here is our family's home for the 2007 Christmas Season.
Every year I add more lights. This year I purchased Mr.
Christmas' 'The Lights and Sounds of Christmas' for the two
reindeer and four trees in the front. It is a completely
self-contained unit with six channels and 40 songs. While
it is not a mega-channel LOR or D-Light product, it still
produces a nice effect. The neighbors loved it at our
'Turning on the Lights' party on December 1. I hope
everyone has a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!

attended). All the best to you and yours.

This is our second year submitting our home to this site. We
have added a few more lights and displays this year.
Unfortunately we can not fit the entire yard and house in the
picture so half of it will have to do. We have seen so many good
ideas on this site and are hoping to be able to use a few next
year. Happy Holidays to all. The Plymel Family. Mentor on the

It's a tradition at the Renczkowski house at 232 Bolton
Station Road in Lancaster, Mass. to get a little crazy during
Christmas. We start early, the day after Halloween, by taking
all the decorations down from the attic, in an assembly line of
course, until we pack a number of rooms - the spare bedroom and
living room with boxes and plastic figurines. My father Gary and
brother Mark start decorating the outside of the home and my
mother Debbie and I decorate the inside. On Thanksgiving night
we light up the house, officially. Usually the neighbors stand
by or are already there, helping to stand up the 14 foot soldier
at his post, in front of our home. My dad's known as Mr.
Christmas and is always outside the house, fixing a light bulb
or making adjustments to the flying reindeer and other
decorations. Usually he shocks himself in the process... it
doesn't help standing on a metal ladder. He buys massive amounts
of candy canes and hands them out to little kids outside. When
it snows he clears a path in the lawn for people to walk
through, because we're always getting people posing for photos
on the front lawn. It's a fun time during the year and my family
looks forward to it. It's nice to see the smiles on little kid's
faces as they wave out the car window. Thank you for letting me
share my family's story. -Amy Renczkowski, Groton, CT

animated decorations. There is a Santa's Workshop that is 12'
long with 3 windows and 9 animated elves and Santa. The giant
tree stands about 40’ high. 10 multi color and clear arches, 36’
feet wide, span the driveway. 26 separate red and clear sections
cover the roof along with five 11’ tall trees.

Once again, we are featuring the Cross on top of the house, but
this year we have added two Flying Horn Blowing Angels beside
the cross. We also added a barn to our nativity Scene and
aprox. 5,000 more lights to our tree line, backyard and front
yard. We hope that if you are anywhere close to Spring

and see our lights and share a cup of Hot Chocolate with us.
Merry Christmas to all and have a safe Holiday.

Our home is located in beautiful Pawleys Island, SC. This is
our 4th year year in this house for Christmas and our third year
decorating. We have a total of 18,000 lights. All four sides of
our house are lit up. Since we live on a lake, the lights really
glisten off the water when looking at the back from the other
side. Key features include our two 6 foot soldiers guarding the
front porch and a 6 1/2' Santa watching the neighbors in the
front window. Christmas music plays outside each night for
passersby. Inside, we have a 10' tree and seven mini trees
throughout the house. Our pride and joy is our replica of
the Advent House from the movie Christmas Vacation, which I have
built from scratch. I have finally finished it this year. Here's

Season greetings from Sweden. Here is my display for 2007.
Currently running 13390 lights. 125 light strings with a total
length of 939m (3130feet). First year with LOR, its great.
I have 32 channels and run a 2 min standalone show, just to
learn till next year, but its amazing and powerful. Its great to
get the power bill a bit smaller, 4 kilowatts per hour. Max amps
for my display is 24 (thanks for 230V. The local media has
opened their eyes for my display this year, been on the front
page of newspapers! Check my site for pictures and upcoming

Here we go again with our 2007 installment of the Hollar
festival of lights. We have enjoyed displaying and viewing
lights for the Christmas Holiday for several years. This
will be our 4th year living in our current house. Our
development has a contest every year and so far we have two 1st
place and one 2nd place finishes. (we placed 2nd our first
year and 1st the last two) Not that we do it for the
contest but it's fun to brag all year long. This year we
are burning approx. 14000 lights. Our children really love
this time of year. So with that, we want to wish everyone
a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Be Safe!! Brad,

Hi, my name is Dominic Moretti and I'm 16 years old.
This is my home in Illinois decorated for Christmas. I have been
doing this since I was about six. I usually begin to plan
in about July, and begin set up November first. I have acquired
everything in the yard through buying it myself, or presents
from everyone in my family. I really enjoy doing this, and
hearing about how much people enjoy it and I plan to continue
with it for many Christmas' to come. Also, I would like to
dedicate my display this year to my amazing grandpa who will be
spending Christmas in Heaven this year. Merry Christmas to
everyone, and remember to keep in mind who this season's all
about.

This year didn't turn out the way I pictured. Everyone
bragged, i guess it looks better in person. But I'm rest
assured (though, last year I failed big-time to make it on the
ugly Christmas lights lists... :D) My only excuse is that
I'm legally blind. :D But everyone is enjoying it.
I'm rather shocked overall by the appearance, in some
aspect.
Merry Christmas!

Happy Holiday's from the Flowers family in Rochester,
Michigan. This years display features about 100,000 lights that
are pulling 450 Amps of power. That's down about 150 Amps
from last year. Those LED lights really do make a difference.
About half of our display is now LED. Those 450 Amps were
spread across 38 20-Amp breakers. Next year I hope to convert
the 8,000+ Icicle lights to LED as well. This year we started
putting out the display on Sept 15 and were to ready to light
until Dec 2nd. There just aren't enough hours in a day !
Cheers....Norm Flowers

Oxnard’s historic 97 year old bandstand comes to life
this holiday season in a high tech way. Decorated with over
27,000 multicolored lights a computer programmed music and
light show will entertain crowds every evening throughout
December from 5-10 PM. “These types of high tech
lighting displays are becoming more popular with homeowners.
Websites such as
Planetchristmas.com are dedicated to show you how to
outdo your neighbor’s Christmas display. Few if any local
civic displays have come up with this level said Oxnard
resident Gary Blum who spearheaded designing the exhibit
with a 6 member crew and assistance with funding from
downtown merchants. The City owned bandstand is known as
the Pagoda locally because of its Craftsman/Asian design
popular in 1910 when it was built in Plaza Park at Fifth &
“C “ Streets in the town square. Nine different
Christmas songs pulse with over 27,000 lights, 22 Christmas
trees, 12 animated characters and with some extra lighting
effects that most homeowners would dream of being able to
incorporate into their displays including fiber optic, LED
floodlights and strobe special effects. Oxnard is
already home to Christmas Tree Lane, Ventura County’s
largest Christmas display just a few blocks away where
nearly 140 homes on ‘F’ & ‘G’ streets in the city’s historic
district were turned on Dec 9th. “You can’t help but get in
the holiday mood when you come to Downtown Oxnard” said
Blum. Blum said he received several calls from
shopping malls as far away as Oregon that wanted to contract
with him to come up with displays to attract customers. “The
display we did in 2006 was the first we had done but it was
very popular giving the reviving downtown a Disneyesque
attraction during the holidays. The show is sponsored
by the Oxnard Downtown Management District with support from
the City of Oxnard’s Parks Department. For more information

We did the same thing as last year pretty much, and had just
a couple of additions that we are happy with. A GIANT
wreath that I hand wrapped which sits over the garage doors, and
during the summer, someone around the corner was throwing out a
wire frame Santa Claus that was wrapped with white lights..... I
stripped all the lights and tie wrapped new lights onto the
frame with the correct color bulbs and we are very happy with
the way it came out. What a find! Hopefully next
year we can add a couple of more things. Merry Christmas &
Happy New Year

Here is a picture of our house this year. It currently has
a little over 42,000 lights with some dancing to music.
This started about 10 years ago with just a couple of thousand
lights and has grown each year since.

After years of adding lights, we have run out of room, hope
you enjoy!

Hello Friends & Family: Merry Christmas to all!
Okay...here's my first attempt to video tape the house...I had
no idea how to work the camera! Of course it's better in
person!

Roger and Sally DeBolt from Boise Idaho. We have over 40,000
lights sequenced to music with 170 channels using Light-O-Rama
controllers. We add to the display every year and have begun
putting lights in our neighbor’s trees. This year we have added
over 10,000 LED lights and is our second year putting our lights
to music. We are also a Toys for Tots drop for the second year
as well.

Merry Christmas from the Whittemores in Wilmington, NC!
This year we've added a landing strip for Santa's sleigh, two
dozen lighted candy canes, and a "fence" around the front yard.
Over 11,000 lights burning, and hanging more every week.
It never ends! We took a cue from a few members and are
collecting toys for the Salvation army this year. So far
the response has been good. I've had to take the barrel in
once already and we still have a week to collect more. The
season to me is all about making it bright for others.
Thank you Chuck and PlanetChristmas for all you do! We'll see
you next year with an even bigger display!

Happy Holidays from the Hayward’s in Joppa MD. We are located
at 3008 West Franklinville Rd. 21085. This is our second time on
PlanetChristmas. We have about 30,000 lights, 4 blow ups, a
projector image (lower left), (homemade items include) 8 single
archways covering about 175’ of our 350’ driveway that you drive
under to get up to the house, 2 sets of 7’ candy canes, 5 large
Christmas trees and 6 small trees, a round archway on the back
yard gate (to the left side of the house), a 9’ 6” Christmas
star (top right) and 2–7’ snowmen and a 3’ 5 point star. Other
items Santa snowboarding, 6 deer, and a glass case with animated
Christmas figurines and much more. It takes me about 3
weeks to complete and covers about an acre of my property. Power
to supply this display is 1-30 amp 2-pole breaker, 7-20 amp
breakers and 1-15 amp, with a lot of extension cords and
electrical romex. As with most of us that light up the
neighborhood we continue to add and change each year. Merry
Christmas to all. Thank you, Scott Hayward

Merry PlanetChristmas. My 12-year-old elf and I put
together a new display every year, with this year's theme as a
football game between Santa's reindeer and the Snowmen, refereed
by the Penguins. Not shown in the picture are additional items
including flying reindeer & sleigh, tunnel of lights over
driveway, and a small forest of spiral trees. Nearing
30000 lights, this is our 9th year decorating with ~20% growth
each year. Sorry, Santa hasn't brought us computer
synchronized lights & music yet... but maybe if we're good this
year! Happy Holidays to all. The Lachendro Family
from Cranberry Twp. PA
