Yep, you’re reading it right. Next Friday through Sunday, the house that lit the neighborhood, 4059 Latona Ave NE, will be selling off its lights and more.
Here’s what Christmas looked like on Latona. Pour one out.
(Thanks for the tip, Madi Carlson!)

It looks like they’re having a yard sale. Any idea if this is really the “end of an era” or just a purging of some inventory?
Dunno, but I’ll pour out an eggnog just in case.
This family has made a lot of kids (and maybe a few grownups) happy a few times every year with that over-the-top display! I hope they know how much many kids’ eyes have lit up at that uniquely American kitschy Christmas-ness.
Do you know this for certain? The sign just says they are having a big sale, nothing about getting rid of all of the decorations.
Interesting. I’m sure their neighbors will be happy not to have all that out, months and months after a given holiday. There’s nothing uglier than plastic inflatable Xmas decorations on a bright Feb morning.
False alarm!!! I talked to Patty and Joe, who are the home’s owners. They are just having a sale and plan on continuing to decorate for the holidays:)
To all of our wonderful neighbors and visitors.
The End of an Era is not, I repeat not, here yet. We hope to continue the decorations for many more years, should the Good Lord be willing.
Thank you to the person who left us picture postcards of our house decorations from last December. There was no name or telephone number to say thank you to, but we love the pictures.
Thank you to the person who left a flower vase to replace the ours that someone had broken, and a big thank you to Zach our neighbor who discovered the breakage, went home, got a broom and cleaned it all up before we even knew it was broken. Thank you to Tilda for the beautiful picture she drew and gave to us.
We leave the Christmas decorations up until after January 8th, but not until February.
A big thank you to Bette Jingling for making the block party happen and for all of her work, that was a big undertaking.
Thank you to all who attended our garage/yard sale this weekend.
We will have more free cucumbers and when the tomatoes ripen we will set them out for our neighbors too, I have way too much tomato sauce in the freezer. 🙂
