I started decorating in 1997 with few lights and a ton of energy and decided to make my house into a winter wonderland. In the early days I would light up the house anyway that I could and attempt to blend everything together. As time has passed, and my experiance has grown, along with the addition of my wonerful wife in 2001, we have started to try to get alittle more unique items and it grows yearly. This year we added one more 16 channel controler and a few more smaller items to help fill in the smaller areas in the lawn
