I'm going to try and start wrapping the trees in the back with lights this weekend....it backs up to a really busy street so lots of people will be able to see them.

I've been wanting to do that every year for the 6 years I've lived there...but haven't for some reason or another. This year I'm not messing around. :lol

Look at the device slomo showed.

Think of it as a concert. They just sync up the lights to the song. He probably started doing this last christmas to get ready for this christmas.
