Pretty much I stopped sequencing in July when I received all my hardware I had ordered in January. From then on it was just building the elements and finalizing my xlights set-up. Then the fall soccer season hit. I am my sons U8 coach. They ended up making it to the state championships so the season went extra long. The week of the final game my 6th child was born. (Samantha Elaine 6lbs 11 oz.). Then thanksgiving...

So as you can see a bit of a while wind finish. I am currently in the final stages of actually putting my light display, well, on display lol.

I am sure once I get all this up and working I will start sequencing again. Not sure what direction I will go in. I generally just work on whatever I am feeling inspired to do. I actually have a lot more I worked on that I haven't put in this thread yet, so I will have to get caught up with that at some point to.

Anyway, happy holidays to all! Looking forward to continuing this work in the near future.

Thought I would post the video for what I ended up with for my 2017 show. I didn't get all the lights up. I never did find a good way that I liked to build icicles for example. And I didn't do any of the dormer lights. Other than that I think my first show turned out pretty well.

I will start sequencing again very soon. Right now I am currently working with the facebook group for singing faces. I think that finishes up here and March and I will begin work on my 2018 show.

Hi Dabil,

I loved watching your show! Just wondering if your interested in helping out a newbie and making some money along the way?

I'm a certified Windows Sysadmin for the DoD ......but xLights and the Christmas Can Can song have been kicking my butt! I just can't seem to get past this first sequence.

I don't have a complicated layout but need help. If your interested, please let me know Sir.

V/R,

I've already built two of the Holidaycoro Singing Trees and plan to build out two more....once I get xLights sequenced. They along with the Mega tree & Starwould be the main attractions with the house outlined in 400 Pixel Bulbs and three arches.
The songs I would like are:

- THX Intro
- Christmas Can Can
- Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas
- Holly Jolly Christmas
- Don't Stop The Santa Man
- Rockin around the Christmas Tree
- Its the most wonderful time of the year
- Jingle Bell Rock
- Trans Siberian
- Mr Heatister
- Thunderstruck

I can purchase and send you the purchased music, singing faces and mega tree sequences that are available for these songs to assist.

John
