A new Christmas favorite for the kids this year...

...Holiday Specs!
I found these little 3D type glasses at Lowes a few nights ago and decided to grab a couple for the kids. This is what the label read...

A SURPRISE FOR THE EYES! Holiday Specs holographic lenses mysteriously transform ordinary Christmas lights or any bright point of light into six different magical messages delighting people of all ages.

I didn't actually think they would work that great but decided to give them a try.
Once home we tried them on and this is what we saw....
Here's looking at the tree with the star glasses on...
Looking at the tree with the Snowman glasses on...
These photos were taken by holding the glasses up to the lens of the camera and hoping it would work. Pretty cool huh?!

After trying them out we rushed back to the store to buy them in all 6 kinds.

The real trippy part of using these specks is when you put them on while driving down the road and EVERY tail light, headlight, sign on the buildings, lamppost, or anything else lit up, looks like Santa, Snowmen, Stars, candy canes or some other weird shape. Really cool.

Definitely a family favorite!
