Rolling into the Christmas season

With only 18 days until the Christmas lights are switched on, I have updated The Lights On Townley website. I'll be updating it one more time this year once everything is set up in order to post new photos, videos, and trivia details about the show. We look forward to you visiting us. The show begins Thanksgiving night, November 25th and continues through the Sunday following New Years Day, January 2nd.

2009 Christmas light show is coming to a close

This has been a wonderful 2009 Christmas season with The Lights On Townley! It is a new year, and we're in the last few minutes of the final show at the time I'm writing this. This has been a very fun way for us to meet other people in our neighborhood. Pray that God will continue to help us reach out and be a blessing to those around us.

We have been thinking of several ideas to incorporate into the Christmas 2010 show: Expanding existing elements, Adding more lights, Adding more channels, Changing the song play list, etc.

2010 will be a terrific year for us in several ways: We are starting a new growth project with McGinnis Mall; We want to increase our donations to the causes/people we currently support; We'll be taking more trips up to the property (after it warms up a bit, of course!); and unbelievably, Hannah will be starting High School in less than a year!
