2005 Display
This year's display was featured in the local newspaper, the News-Register, on December 27, 2005. Click here to read the article.
The display has once again been expanded with over 30% more lights than last year, including several new homemade items and a few bought items.
As the display grows each year, the time required for the design, computerization, and setup increases dramatically. A minimum of 1-2 hours was spent each night since Labor Day working on the computerization, building new display items, and on setup.
New Items
The following items were made by us for the display this year:
 | Toy car for Train |
|
More smoke puffs for Train |

| 3-D Laying Deer |
Music
The music for this year's show was chosen based on the responses to last year's survey. This year includes four brand new songs along with two songs from previous years. The first song is a combination of two songs from "A Charlie Brown Christmas".
