YOU'RE INVITED TO VIEW

Now and then you come along a story that you just have to share. Debra Breeden and her family have been having a Christmas Display every year since 1983.  This wasn't always the address, and the old homestead may have not been quite as elaborate as it's getting today, but the tradition was going strong even back then; now it's been 40 years of holiday lights.

"Every year we seem to add more. I think we are running out of room," said Debra.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET THE DISPLAY READY?

How long does it take the Breeden's to set up this holiday display? Debra says they get started way back in September to get ready each year. Then, on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, the lights go on from 5 pm to 8 pm each night through Christmas.
