Here’s this year’s collection of Christmas yard decorations in my neighborhood.
Nativity




From inflatables to cut-outs to full figurines, the Lord was well represented this year.
Snowmen

















I love seeing snowmen in Florida. Ironically, they wear hats, scarves, and gloves, as if snowmen could get cold.
Santa








I believe Santa’s popularity has waned in recent years. He’s still a mainstay, but has to share lawn space with a lot of other characters.
The Grinch


Candy Canes





I walked by many “candy cane farms” this year. For a season they replace driveway and landscape lights.
Lights












Of course there are plenty of lights. New designs include dripping icicles, programmable strings of LEDs, and red and green floodlights.
Miscellaneous















Anything with a Santa hat is now part of the Christmas landscape. From turtles to flamingoes, pigs to dinosaurs, all are welcome to join the cast. As long as you have a storage unit for the other ten months of the year.
