Merry Christmas . . . in lights

Last night, my husband and I went on a date night . . . in Portland . . . to the beautiful and well-known Peacock Lane.  Each year the two block street goes all out with Christmas lights. If you live there, you have to decorate for Christmas. And, of course, he packed along some of our homemade Christmas cookies.

Sharing some Christmas lights and wonder with you . . .

















Happy Christmas eve! May you find Christ in your Christmas this year; the reason we celebrate.

Thank you for taking time to read and follow me. I appreciate every comment and follower. You are all so kind and wonderful, and I look forward to getting to know you better this year.

  2. Merry Christmas, Julie, and thanks for stopping by Town and Country Mom. As for our wreaths, our windows are double hung, so we just slide down the top and catch the tail of the ribbon between the sash and the window frame. No nails involved!

  3. Hi Julie,
    Thank you for your beautiful visit and comment. I love your display of Christmas over here. I think photo No.#6 is my simple favorite one, something old and simple about it :)

    I will enjoy visit a new friend and your inspiring talents over here.

  8. A "light road trip" certainly embraces you in the holiday spirit, doesn't it, Julie? Looks like you had a great time! I'm so glad that we met in blogland this year, too! Christmas blessings to you and yours!

  10. Beautiful! I have fond memories growing up, taking rides with family to see similar streets, all lit up for the holidays. I do miss that being way over here on the other side of the world.

    I was just at Cindy's place and saw that you won her beautiful banner. Congrats and happy holidays. Tammy
