Don't you just love the sense of humor of this homeowner in the picture above?
And I also have to confess that the homeowner's "Ditto" is just about my kind of decorating these days.
How We Used to Decorate...
We used to do it up pretty big with outside lights and displays when my kids were young. And then it occurred to me that we could not even really see any of the decorations from inside the house to enjoy for ourselves.
I began to question whether we were doing it to impress others in our neighborhood or for our own gratification. And as the years went on, it began to feel more and more like a chore and obligation rather than a fun holiday activity.
