Welcome to the Downs Family Christmas Light Ministry
We're officially open for the 2017 season as of November 23rd! We hope it's been worth the wait.
As of Saturday, December 23rd we are OPEN! Be careful in the field, there's a few mushy spots.
Follow us on our Facebook fan page. We'll be updating it throughout the year with pictures and comments.
The song list for 2017 contains eleven songs, plus our usual funky intermission. We don't list our songs for the new year before the show starts, so you'll just have to wait for the next years playlist. Here is the playlist for 2017:
Song | Artist |
---|---|
Christmas With a Capital C | Go Fish |
Wizards in Winter | Trans Siberian Orchestra |
Christmas Eve Sarajevo | Trans Siberian Orchestra |
Joy to the World | Go Fish |
Let It Snow | Brian Setzer |
Jingle Bells | Cast of Glee |
Run Run Rudolph | Hanson |
Do You Hear What I Hear? | Spiraling |
Dueling Jingle Bells | US Navy Band |
O Holy Night | David Phelps |
12 Days of Christmas | Relient K |
The intermission song is a jazzy Christmas Comes but Once a Year by the great BB King.
The background of the introduction is the first minute of Christmas Canon by Trans Siberian Orchestra.
As always, every song we use can be downloaded from iTunes. We hope you buy the music and help support these awesome artists.
In 2011, we received a visit by the Ugandan Orphans Choir, an amazing group of kids from Uganda that travel the US singing and dancing, in hopes of raising awareness about the problems back home in their native Uganda. We hated to get them out on a cold night, but couldn't resist a picture.
We thought everybody might enjoy this video we made in 2010 while setting up one of the two giant trees. This is a time-lapse video that compresses two hours of work into two minutes. Enjoy!
