I LOVE Christmas lights. Mine have been up since October. But there is deffo a line. I've got like, 4 sets up. But it barely overs 1/8th of my front yard. its just in some trees and along the roofline. But i totally agree there is such a thing as going too far. I don't like the inflatable things or the non-light decorations.

I like the ones where someone has decorated their front yard tree. That looks pretty cool but the ones that have covered the whole house in flashing lights, unless it's sync to rock music, are just an eye sore.

I like the inflatables but if there's also lights and my neighbours left them on at night then I would be aiming darts at the giant jolly Santa.
