A Unique Tradition...

Ever since I was a little kid I have ventured out to the house on Falmouth Street in Mission, KS. Cars line the streets to park as families with firstborns in strollers or 5 kids in tow, teenagers dating holding hands or newlywed couples walk up to the house. You peek into the windows and doors of this now old mans house. Its decorated with all vintage toys. The garage is a working toyshop with elves, a manger sets on the side of the garage, the roof is lined with figurines, Santa in the front bay window. This year we noticed he has added on and even Santa was there live in a sleigh to take pictures for free with the kiddos. All the while the family inside is living life, even a teenage boy was asleep on the couch in the living room. This year the neighbors/city tried to shut him down. He has been doing this way before my time. Ba-humbug to them! As you can see they didn't stand a chance at ruining little kid dreams :)
