Christmas is right around the corner. Are you wondering if it is too early to begin decorating? According to Ethan Connell, a young man who has always been passionate about Christmas, it is never too early.

His passion for Christmas began before he was born while his mother was still carrying him. “Before he was born I always listed to Christmas music and I think that had an effect on him,” said Sandra Connell, Ethan’s mother. Since he was a little boy he has always been fascinated with Christmas lights and Christmas music. When Ethan was younger he was always excited about helping put up Christmas lights. As the years moved forward, Ethan decided each year that his house needed more and more lights. Ethan loves Christmas lights and he wants to have as many lights as possible so that onlookers pass by and have that “wow” reaction.

“This year is the first year that I’ve put up all LED lights with the exception of my reindeer and angel. LED lights are very energy efficient. They attract alot of onlookers because they are very bright compared to incandescent lights,” said Ethan. Ethan’s favorite Christmas music is the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Ethan said that he has seen the Trans-Siberian Orchestra in concert two times and he loves them. Ethan said, “LED lights are the best way to go.” So what are you waiting for? Bring out those decorations and start your Christmas holidays early! You can buy LED lights for your home at your local Home Depot, Walmart, http://www.lowes.com/Lowes and many other stores.
