One of my earliest and nicest Christmas memories was when I saw Christmas lights on our front porch for the very first time. Our home was kinda dark in general, so it was something really special to look out the front window and see a nice, bright warm glow enveloping the whole front of the house. My dad showed us how to put up the lights.
My bedroom window faced the front of the house, and I still distinctly remember how nice it was to doze off to sleep under the glow of those big, colorful C9 lights.
