We moved into a new apartment about a month ago now. I love it so much more than our last place but won’t get into it. When driving out the other night we came across a neighbor in his garage with a Christmas train set and had to get out to see.
We met Mark Brasseit and learned a bit about him and his train set. The neighbors come by yearly to see and kids will throw fake snow over the village and blow the train whistle. It really is quite a wonderful tradition. And I’m sure we’ll be back to see him again.

You can see more of his set up on youtube here.
What special Christmas decorations do you set up in your home or make sure you go out to see?
Wow that’s a really nice set. Mine is a Christmas Village with ‘snow’, some fir trees and European houses, shops and churches :)
Ooh that’s lovely. We have a small Christmas village too. Buy haven’t figured out where we’re going to set it up this year.
Enjoy setting it up. :)
Thank you 😊

I SEE WHY KIDS AND ADULTS LOOK FORWARD TO THIS! :D
Me too! Im so glad we stumbled upon him.
serendipity :D
I love this set up—including the sign referencing the real reason for Christmas!
It’s so great all around!
Sure is! :D
We go away right after Christmas so my decorations are not too many or too grand just some lights outside the house and the Christmas tree.
That sounds so nice though. We haven’t quite figured out how much were decorating this year. Were settling after a move which seems to make more unboxing feel more complex.
