Is it just me, or are the holiday decorations sparse around Daybreak this year? Where are all the Christmas lights? Surely not everyone’s lights were strung up by a couple of boys with more enthusiasm than working knowledge of electricity like at my house—the resulting total Christmas light blackout has yet to be sorted out by my husband and I, we’re still working up the motivation. Is it the economy? A stronger desire to conserve electricity? Or are we all just too pressed for time this year? Whatever the reasons, Daybreak just doesn’t seem as brightly lit this year as it has in the past. Nevertheless, if you’re looking for a short free light tour, there are still enough brightly glowing houses in Daybreak to lighten up your holiday and entertain your family for half an hour on a cold evening.

    Last Sunday evening, the kids and I piled into the car for an ooh-and-ahh Christmas light tour around Daybreak. If you decide to take one yourself, make sure you check out our favorite houses (homeowners, I really hope you don’t mind that I’m posting a photo of your house online—take it as a compliment):

 

If you're driving through Founder's Village, you can't pass by this house (and the one next to it) on Zephyr Way without at least a second glance. It was the crowd favorite in our car.

Who says small yards can't make a big impact? This little Paseo Home on Topview in Eastlake Village packs a big punch in holiday decorations. If you like their ultra-festive winter display, you should have seen the fancy pumpkin stacks in the fall!

 

This house on the corner of Otter Brook and Lake Bridge wins the "Most Tasteful Award". Their yard is always immaculate and gorgeous through the warmer months, so it's no surprise to find the house decked out in style for Christmas.

 

Don't forget to check out SoDa Row! With all the lights in the trees and overhead, you feel like you're really visiting a sparkly winter wonderland.
