Texas Christmas Lights, Ya'll

Recommended Posts

I guess being in the Army, you don't see much of this, huh? Would sort of give away your position, if you were trying to lay low! ;)

Thank you for the job that you do....and I'm glad that I was able to give you a little smile with my light display! :)

What a great job! You really do have the spirit of the season. The Texas flag is a great touch! Love it!



I just KNEW you'd like it! Is it the spirit of the season, or the spirit of the state? :S Whichever...thanks! :)
Speaking of which...I wonder where Sunny is. I bought the giant snowman in her honor! ;)

Well technically, I only moved here a few months ago, but I just LOVE this state! The pride that Texans have about their state is just a wonderful thing to me. More states should try it! :P



seriously, what other state makes chips and ice cubes in the shape of their state? well, maybe wyoming.



I thought Wyoming *WAS* a huge ice cube?? :D:D:D:D

I love the sequined Texas Star!!!



Yeah...I love shinies!!! Wait'll you see the rest of my ornaments that I am making. The stars are just the beginning! Texas is either going to be REALLY proud that I moved here...or eager to get rid of me! :P

Will post pics as I complete each type! :)

Some folks might say I am having just a wee bit too much fun with this......>:(

Never been to Wyoming....yet!

But the state pride in Texas is awesome! What other state has a store in their mall with just items that reflect the state in some way? BTW...I've just GOT to stay out of that store! :)

Nina, if yer gonna be stakin' claim to this here great state of ours honey, there's one thang you've got to learn:

Y'all.

It's how you know fer sure that you ain't in the North, and according to legend it means "You all", hence the apostrophe after the "Y" and before the "all."

Just a li'l word of advice to a new neighbor. Have a nice day now, y'hear?

Here's an idea for Texas Christmas lights. You know how scorpions glow under black light?

Kill a bunch of scorpions then put them on a string like popcorn. Hang it over the window under a black light.



WOW!!! That's a GREAT idea. ;) Unfortunately, the scorpions must've seen that coming, as they've disappeared lately. Sure wish you had suggested it when I first moved here. I'll bet I could've had at least a 100 light strand by now! >:( >:(

I guess it just gives me something to work at for NEXT year's decorations! :)

Mike honey....can I hang scorpions around the house for decoration? B|

Okay...I'll try to work on this. Mike and Clint tried to teach me to say it proper "Texas" style in June...but I didn't have much success. But I'm trying, ya' know. ;)

Nina,
I printed a picture of the CF World Record & brought it to work to show everyone. So far everyone has asked the same question, "which one are you?".B| To which I only have 1 reply & that is to hang my head in shame & say, "I wasn't involved in that one".[:/] I think I will make an effort to be in the 100 way in 2 years.

For some sick twisted reason, I think no Christmas decorations at your house would be complete without a dead scorpion string strung up across your front porch with a strong black light highlighting them at night! B|B|B|

I think, y'all did a great job! Showing both the Christmas and Texas spirit. I do believe, y'all are gonna fit real good here. Hope, your first Texas Christmas is bigger and better than ever.
Hadn't heard a squeak here outa Sunny. The snowman was thoughtful.

You know, I gave away 5 live scorpions a few weeks ago to the wife/kids of the DZO here. I wonder if I could get them back now?

Yeah...I'm sure that would go over REALLY well. NOT!!!

Um...er....well...it wasn't y'all that decorated. 1/2 of the "y'all" was NOT enthused. Said it was nice, as long as it was on someone ELSE'S house...not his.

Good thing he's in Kosovo right now, huh? ;) >:( And by the time he comes home in late January, they will be nothing more than a fond memory and a great thread on dz.com! :P

NO, No, No...I think that in Texas fashion you have to keep them alive. Like, in a glass ornament.:P
