‘Best Lights’ Listings
We continue to find Providence Christmas on various lists of ‘best lights’ to see during the holidays. I found this one this afternoon and even though it was published last year, find it interesting now that I’ve spent some time visiting the displays in and around Austin (even built a couple of them myself!).

Just a quick shout out to Grayson Sanders of Firehouse Christmas Lighting. Grayson has helped with the Providence Christmas display ever since it’s very first year by installing the roof lights way up there where some of us chickens are afraid to climb!
Firehouse Christmas Lighting specializes in residential holiday lighting – give Grayson a shout the next time you need lighting installation for the holidays or a special event: 940-231-2427 or info@firehousechristmaslighting.com.
Read MoreProvidence HOA Developers Award
Providence Christmas was awarded the December 2010 Developers Award in recognition of our support of the community and the HOPE Food Bank in Aubrey. This recognition and cash gift is humbling and appreciated as it will be added to our donation collections for the HOPE Food Bank and support their efforts to help the less fortunate in our area.
As you may know, we accept donations of food and clothing for the HOPE Food Bank in Aubrey. Often people also leave cash and gift cards etc. that we also pass along to the food bank. We have always appreciated the support that our HOA gives this display each year as it absolutely helps bring awareness to the needs of the less fortunate in our area through the work we support at the HOPE Food Bank.
They will be absolutely thrilled to receive this cash gift! They don’t often receive cash gifts and hence are supporting the infrastructure with the help of local donors and a church in Aubrey. So cash donations go a very long way in helping them with things like paint, shelving, and general maintenance of the small building that they operate out of.
Thank you ALL again for the continued support in our efforts to pay it forward!
Merry Christmas!

Other Local Animated/Synchronized Displays
This year marks the first time that Aubrey area Christmas decorating enthusiasts have created more than one animated/synchronized display for your enjoyment! We are now blessed with the hard work of Steve Olguin and Shawn Tacina.
The Olguin family display is in its first year and Steve definitely shot like a rocket out of the gate with his display. It’s about 3 times the size of the first Providence Christmas (Vaderville back then) display!
The Tacina family display is in it’s second year (I think, correct me if this is wrong Shawn). Shawn takes great pride in the elements he creates for the display including some very cool shooting stars and his famous ‘Marty Fan”.
Make a night of it and go see them all! It takes a lot of hard work, time and money to put on an animated Christmas display – we’re very proud to have these folks as part of our community! If you or someone you know is also doing an animated/synchronized display in the local area, please let me know and we’ll add them here too.
