Holiday Decorations???

Dana and I have established a "tacky scale" when we see yards decorated for Christmas. For instance, if one has a nativity scene with Frosty the Snowman, rudolph and santa in attendance, it would be higher up on the scale than say, just frosty rudolph and santa with some elves and maybe an angel or two.

Some people are very imaginative with their decorations. It is very possible that this Santa is a homicide victim, who might have been shot as he was making his getaway.. Or maybe he just has a hole and wont hold air.

Same yard, view from the front. Is this a Christmas cow and a Christmas pig????

And then, there are the inflatables.. these neighbors of ours must be from Texas because their inflatables are VERY BIG!! Frosty is even taller than their house!
And around the corner, we have another inflatable display, probably a 7 on the scale, until....

we see Santa in the bass boat, and that takes it all the way to a 9!

The grand poobah of all decorated yards that we have seen is just right down the street from us. Its a 10....They even have singing mice.

Western Colorados version of the Griswolds live right across the street from us, but I dont have a picture yet, taking it in the daylight just does not do them justice. They literally light up the whole neighborhood when they throw the switch!!
