So, we moved into Pelion in Menifee and within two months we got COVID back in 2020. Fast forward to moving into our new home in San Tan Valley, AZ and you guessed it, COVID again. Isn't that special? as Dana Carvey once said... lol

We are all on the mend though and I wanted to post about our new home. We luckily enough got into a home off Shari St in San Tan Valley, AZ. It's an amazing 5 bedroom home, three car garage, pool and an unlimited supply of heat in the summer. 😅

One of the nice things about the neighborhood is that we have what is called a Loop of Lights in this very area that all goes out for Christmas and yep we are on the second to last street on that loop. Hopefully the new neighbors will dig the holidays as much as we do, we shall see as we are all avoiding the sunlight still. 😂

I'm not sure what I'll call the new show out here, hopefully it'll come to me, but I do want to share a rough draft, if you will, of Sia's Candy Cane Lane on the new home. Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the summer!

Hello everyone! Wanted to post a bit about the future of the display. To sum it up, we are moving to Arizona this year so we will not be having a show at Pelion in 2023 and the house will probably go up for sale sometime in April.

I have not decided if I'll rename this page or not, but wanted to let folks know the decision to relocate is final. I may just rename the page with the new location, etc.. if you want to stay in touch.

Ultimately, things came down to family and the need to be closer to everyone (Instead of a 6 hour drive). Truly appreciate everyone's support over the years and look forward to new experiences lighting up the San Tan Valley area of Arizona.

Semi start… a few more things to go but I started the show today. I swear I’ve fixed more bad cables and props this year than ever! Rabbits think I opened a buffet with all my cables I think. 😂

Due to my schedule and issue with one of my main light controllers, looking to start the show sometime next week no later than Sunday the 11th. 🎅🎄🎄☃️

Thanksgiving already?!?!

It's been a quiet year so far and would love to say a lot has been happening for the show, it has been quite the opposite. There will be a show this year, but it will be missing a few things due to changes in props. i.e. no big tree as it's too much of a safety issue after the wind took it down last year. Hopefully, we will have everything put out and ready to go by Friday December 9th at the latest.

Wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving and look forward to your visits this year!
