Sunset Hills

Monday, December 29, 2014 -  Tonight we decided to go see the Sunset Hills Neighborhood we have heard about in recent years.  The neighborhood is covered in "Christmas tree balls".  The neighborhood gathered together to make 300 of them this year.  The story is that is 1996 Jonathan Smith's daughter, Alison, saw a ball of Christmas lights hanging in a tree.  After she designed one on paper, her and her dad made an actual one.  They are made from manipulating chicken wire to form a sphere and then wrapped in lights.  Our church made some this year as a fund raiser for the Appalachian Service Project.  We bought some and hung them in our tree.  So pretty!
