Such a shame! We live near the Webers and always enjoy their Christmas decorations. Perhaps it's time to put up a few motion-sensor webcams, with warning signs, like the home up on Hearst has.

This story just breaks my heart. We had decorations stolen from our front yard last year, but thankfully none this year. I am glad to hear that the family will continue to display decorations next year as we did this year. Just keep remembering the ole saying "what goes around comes around" and those ppl who stole your knomes. God Bless and Happy New Year!! :-)

This is sad and unfortunate--a light up santa was taken from out yard last Christmas. My two sons cried when they found out it was gone. Why some people think it is fun to steal is beyond me.
