Folks at The Holler celebrate Christmas in a Big Way!

One of our neighbors fills their multiple acre property with hundreds of decorations.

Each year there are more!

Many of them have moving parts. There is a almost life size Santa flown airplane with a runway that lands!

Some are twenty feet tall and the lighted trees are taller!

And this is all done by one Hollerite family!

Christmas is serious out here. I think the coyotes are impressed because they don’t chew the electric cables and coyotes chew EVERYTHING!

To be honest I get the Christmas bug too…..

        1. I can only imagine what it would be like to grow up having to put up and take down these lights each year. If you choose to do it, okay, but anything else could be heinous. Happy Winter Solstice to you!❄️❄️

  17. I nominated you for the Liebster Award – but, if your blog is award free then you are under no obligation to participate. I just wanted to show my appreciation for your excellent blog and the beautiful photographs that you share!

    1. I am honored and touched by your kindness my dear friend. I am award free but I feel your thoughtfulness like a very special gift from a very special friend. Be well my friend and thank you~ <3 <3

  25. Yours looks gorgeous and European on the table, Cindy.
    In the hallway or on the entrance way table under the beautiful mirror it reminds me of Spain, Portugal or Mexican origin. This had sparkers of pinkish purple which my grandies might say looks like the new Troll’s girl, Poppy’s hair! 🙂
    The outdoor displays are festive and cheerful in the Holler!
    Merry Christmas to you and yours and may wonders continue to warm your hearts into the New Year’s too. <3

    1. You are incredibly observant Robin with an eye for detail and miss nothing. This is unusual. May the peace of the season stay with you and yours in the coming year my friend~ 🕯

    1. No I wouldn’t think that at all. I don’t put out exterior lights anymore and I do modest decorations inside. I respect differences among people. Happiest Holidays to you both! ☃

  32. Merry Christmas, Cindy and Happy New Year. I love seeing all the decorations. So many in my neighborhood do very little as they are either old, infirmed or without financial resources to do much. But fortunately there are a few that can light up the world for the rest of us. 🙂 Love your inside decor. Festive and happy.

  42. Wow, some folks really have it badly! 😉 Reminds me of the Grinch movie where there is fierce neighborhood competition for the biggest display. I loved that machine-gun that spat out strings of lights, ha!
    Your display is beautifully restrained. 🙂 Happy Christmas to y’all at the Holler!

    1. Once the kids grew up, exterior lights were a thing of the past, and I was always rather minimalistic! Remember Chevy Chase’s Christmas Vacation movie, when he turns on his excessive holiday lights he’s blows the transformer for the whole neighborhood! Laughing…..

  43. Something wrong with these pictures, Cuz. What happened to all the snow ??? These pics remind me of Florida when we lived there. They decorated for Christmas there more than most places here in the Midwest
