We prepare for Christmas, personally and as groups. Our family put up lights, a tree, lights on the tree. We prepared food, wrapped presents, readied ourselves for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. It's amazing how much work goes into the holiday. It's a direct result in how much the day means to people.
Not just families prepare, but communities as well. The bigger the population, the bigger the display, usually. It's our first Christmas in a new area so we didn't know what displays were around. My daughter, when driving back and forth to the valley in which we used to live, noticed a large light display near Willard Bay. With a little research we found out what it was and we decided to see if four ourselves.
We're so glad we did.
First, it was a drive-through display. Love that--you don't freeze your tail off. We noticed instantly that many had cars with sunroofs and through those sunroofs, many a child peaked through. In fact some cars had multiple younglings hanging outside the vehicle. Of course, they had the best view. The display was set up at the Willard Bay Campground. They were also able to accommodate a lot of cars--we went the last Monday (Family Night...) before Christmas. We completed the tour quickly.
I took a lot of videos, but I only included one here. There was so much to see. So, if you're in the area--Northern Utah in about eleven months, check out the display. It took a lot of work to set up and we appreciated it. It definitely set the mood. Well done.
