We don't let a silly little thing like having a small house stand in the way of our Christmas Spirit! We even made the stoop of our one-bedroom apartment glow. So, 700-square-feet? We can do a lot with that. About six-thousand lights worth of a lot!
We added these snowflake lights this year. They're the only lights that "move", and they twinkle down like falling snowflakes. 
There's my Charlie Brown, every year.
This year we made a wreath with lighted peppermint candies. I had these lights on our tree last year but they didn't quite look right. They are PERFECT on this wreath on our front door.
We also added an outdoor Christmas tree this year. This was our inside tree last year, but when we inherited my Mom's tree, we decided to move this one outside. We bought a ton of red ball ornaments in various sizes about a month after Christmas. I think we paid about $0.50 a box? So no more than a few dollars total. I'm really happy with the way it turned out!
I'd love to see your Christmas lights! Leave me a link in the comments if you've blogged about them!

I love your festiveness! Very cool!
Beautiful! I still haven't taken pics of our outside lights ... but I did a ton of blog posts on the inside decorations. Hopefully the outside pics will be done this week!!
Wow, very festive! I haven't decorated outside this year, but I love to look at the lights and see what others have put up.
Love the peppermint lights!! really festive! :)
Beautiful display!
WOW! I love it. I bet it looks even better in person!
WOW you guys went all-out! That looks frickin' awesome!
Outside decorations are not my forte. Maybe it's the arctic temps here (ha, not really an excuse!) But I love your enthusiasm! Maybe I'll feel inspired for next year.
Ooooh! I like the lighted peppermints! I've never seen those before.
Oh my gosh, you house looks so fun! I love it! My 3 year old is standing here and she wants to get into the car and come see your lights! LOL, it's a long drive from Nevada. We don't have much for outside lights and so far all we have inside is the Christmas tree, I guess maybe next year will be better for us!!
