Michigan Christmas Light Displays

The Best Christmas Light Displays in Michigan

One of my families new favorite holiday traditions is to venture out and see the holiday light displays. Some homes are decorated in all white lights that sparkle and light up the night. Others homes and businesses are adorned in reds, greens, blues along with the traditional golds and silver.
