The Harliens of Berry Creek are celebrating their 24th Christmas decoration celebration. Each year they decorate their home to bring joy to neighborhood kids and families. Inspired by a dear friend’s son and a neighbor who insisted the light show goes on, the Harlien family, Santa, and their supporters are embarking on their 4th Annual Make-A-Wish light show benefiting Central Texas.
With community support, they have raised nearly $70,000 in the past three holiday seasons, enabling them to sponsor 14 children on wish trips.
This year the goal is $20,000 to send four more children on a trip of a lifetime. The Harliens started an annual tradition 24 years ago, sharing the joy of Christmas with others by decorating their house with lights and Christmas decor. As each year we passed they added more lights to the home. As the family grew with two children, Coleson now age 20 and Chamberlain age 18, it became a family tradition.
You can see their Griswold-esque display every night at 400 Liscio Cove in Berry Creek. This year they have added a TapSnap booth night to accompany the cookies, cocoa, sing-alongs and story time. Search HarlienFamilyChristmas for updates.
“We appreciate your continued support and look forward to making more wishes come true for Central Texas families this Holiday Season!”
~Russell, Leslie, Coleson, and Chamberlain
