Deckard Family Christmas Display
Since 1985, the Deckard family has been celebrating Christmas in Whitehall, Kentucky, with their annual Christmas display. Despite the onset of the flu pandemic, Jesse Deckard has been home, in his grandparents’ old house, to enjoy his childhood holiday traditions. He also recently decided to renovate the old house and re-lit the 75-foot-tall holiday tree. Jesse Deckard has a passion for traditions, and his family’s Christmas display is one of his favorite parts of the season.
The Deckard family’s display used to be two doors from the Johnson County line, but it has expanded into a larger home and front yard, and will continue to light up the streets until January 2022. The display will remain open to the public for free for the next 30 years, and visitors can enjoy the sights and sounds.
The Christmas display at the Deckard family’s home is a spectacular display of Christmas lights. Each piece of art is hand-crafted by Joe Addington and is lit by spotlights. It’s the largest Christmas display in the area, and it is sure to make you smile. Each year, the show grows with new lighting and sound, including new lights above the garage door. These lights spell out short words, such as “Joe,” “Jane,” and “Christmas.”
