My Dad always loved Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  The first year we did the decorations outside the house was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Dad, Me (Dee) and Dennis were totally into it!!!!!!!!!!  We had the statues but what were we going to put them in.......... AAAHA we built a manger but alas we were freezing our asses off!!!!!!!!!!  So out came the backyard BBQ coals and all!!  Hot dogs and chestnuts too!!!  It was so great, people driving by saying looks amazing, good job!!!!!  That was another reason for moving on with freezing fingers and feet!!!!  The outcome was phenomal!!!!!!!!!   The house was lit up in its glory and the spirit of Christmas was there with Mary, Joseph, the sheep (all bolted down) and baby Jesus brought out at Midnight!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Couldn't ask for a better memory!!!   Also engraved with DDD (Dad, Dee, Dennis)!!!!!!!!!!!!  With all my love Dad, Dee
