I've been wanting to do this for years. The lights are programmed to come on throughout Advent n=2^(kt) such that the last light comes on midnight on Christmas eve. I am trying to build anticipation in my kids instead of just being tired of all the decorations by Christmas.

I have decided to be miserable today. Just realized that I will be the only one of my parent's ten kids that won't be with them playing football today, since my wife and I drew hosting Thanksgiving for her family. Only two of our kids came down sick yesterday, so my wife is taking the food and the rest of the kids to her parents house, while I watch the recovering patients. Thankful to have family to miss!
