Hey everyone, we've had to make the tough decision not to do a show this year.

The simple explanation is that, as a family, we’ve just had to put our priorities in other areas this year. As the season approached, we had to face reality on where sacrifices had to be made. The amount of time the show takes to put on, doesn’t allow for you to “squeeze it in”. It’s a substantial commitment on many different fronts – technical programming, networking, manual labor setup, design, and financial. We just hope there’s understanding that we didn’t make the decision in haste, or lightly.

I think the main question will likely be is this for good? Speaking frankly, we don’t know. It wouldn’t be productive to speculate right now. There’s a lot of things we need to consider and we’re just not at a place, right now, to objectively evaluate them all.

All we can say, for sure, is thank you. All the pictures of the little ones in front of the display, the messages of family memories/traditions you’ve told us about, the kids hanging outside of car windows dancing to “raining tacos”….ya’ll are why we do/did this. We hope you all have a fantastic and safe holiday season.

Hey friends! Anyone have any 10ft sections of tower laying around? 😅 I know it's a long shot, but we've got to re-think our support system for our 30ft tree this year.

If you, or anyone you know, is willing to part with some we'd be greatly appreciate the help.

See ya next year! If you've got feedback, suggestions, or stories we'd love to hear it - post it below. Have a great 2023!

We’re off to enjoy family! Have a Merry Christmas everyone. 🎄

So tonight running is questionable currently. I got out to the field to find it’s one of our main computers that controls the left side of the show. Blowing winds find every crack and just enough snow managed through a bad seal. ❄️ +⚡️ = 💥

We’ve got backups, etc. but on a time crunch with it being Dec 24th - family get together and all.

Pretty gutted at this point but I’ll see what I can do. Stay tuned.

12/23/2022

SHOW IS CANCELLED FOR TONIGHT - Friday December 23rd. Wind has caused a few issues that we’ll need some time to look into. Just too cold today to dig in further. Sorry for any inconvenience.

12/21/2022

‼️ FYI - We'll be keeping an eye on Friday and just the general weather. We don't want to jump the gun but be sure to check the page for updates before you drive out this weekend.

Hope y’all had a great thanksgiving! We’re so thankful for all of you who come out and enjoy the show every year. Thanks for letting us be apart of your family traditions.

Thanks to Thomas Township for giving us a “home” at Roberts Park!

Thanks to all of our family and friends who help us setup.

Thanks to my Dad who is my rock through the many-many hours of setup. If I’m on field, he’s on field.

Thanks to my mom for keeping me sane with our crazy October-December schedules and keeping the family fueled up.

Thanks to my wife for burning the candle at both ends with me. 😅 The long nights scripting all of the shows music and being as much of a stickler as i am for quality. Without you the magic wouldn’t happen.

Last but not least, thank you to my boys, for being such a positive motivation to keep this going. They love seeing it be a family tradition not for us as much as for all the people that come and see it. Annnnd….for putting up with dad wanting them to do new voice overs every year 🤪 Love you guys.

This is an entire family affair and we hope it inspires other families to find their joy in the community. If it’s not there? Maybe start it. You never know where you’ll end up.

See you in a few weeks!

Thanks for all your feedback in the surveys! (If you haven't taken it yet: https://tinyurl.com/3janxr9w) We've got a wide variation of opinions and I just want to address the song choices because people do elaborate more on it on in the surveys long form feedback areas.

We aim to strike a balance based on the data we receive from the surveys (and what songs we're willing to listen to 200-300 times while we script each song😅 - seriously). Based on the feedback, I think we do a fairly good job on that balance, but nothing is ever perfect. We appreciate people being passionate about their responses. To us it means you care about the show. Thank you. To those of you worried about being harsh - we don't take it personally. We wouldn't put the survey out if we only wanted our own echo chamber.

UPDATE: We've got everything working on the light show side and are running through December 31st 5:30pm - 10pm, daily.

The show is an entire family endeavor, and is something we're all honored to be able to put on for you!

A huge thank you to Thomas Township Parks and Recreation and Thomas Township for giving us a place to continue to grow and putting trust in us to just "do our thing" 😅.

A heartfelt and emotional thank you to everyone who help with supplies, setup, and tear down every year - we really couldn't do it without you. We grew a lot this year! Thanks for helping us!

We just wanna put up lights...and we're blessed to be able to do that for y'all. Thanks to everyone who considers packing up in their vehicle to come see us. We put a crazy amount of thought, planning, and care to make sure the experience is worth the drive. Thanks for making us apart of your Christmas memories. Merry Christmas everyone! We're excited for you to see the show!!!! Almost there!
