We started a third wall, about half, giving us a staple looking display this year. More decorations were added including more full size Christmas Trees. The Christmas trees hanging down from the ceiling are a pain to set up but really look nice. We have to remove the light cover, tie the Christmas tree up, power it from the lightbulb socket using an adapter, then staple the first row of branches to the ceiling. The procedure is reversed after the new year to take them down, also a tedious procedure.

The rest of the display sets up quickly again with the boxes as foundation and blue tarp as background sky. Where we do not have boxes we have to use full size trees or decorations. As the display grows it is getting more difficult to find room for the life size nativity scene, which is really what Christmas is all about. We may end up moving it outside which is really where it belongs since it is an outside blowmold decoration.

Again a very successful party and my mothers idea for a Christmas party at the house is slowly turning into a family tradition.
