BEST AND BRIGHTEST CHRISTMAS HOMES IN LANGLEY
Heather Colpitts | Langley Advance Times • December 26, 2023
Maybe there’s a house on a particular block that shine brightly in the darkest days of winter – the Langley Advance Times and Aldergrove Star want to know about the best and brightest homes throughout the community and so do readers.
People can send over photos, addresses, or all the details including any charity aspects at a particular display. The displays must be in a place where the public can view them.
The Langley Advance Times and Aldergrove Star will be featuring as many decked out dwellings in the newspaper and online to keep readers up to date on where to go for the best sparkling sights all season long.
Email everything Christmas display-related to datebook@langleyadvancetimes.com for the Advance Times and newstips@aldergrovestar.com for the Star, or submit the news tip form on our websites.
The local community newspapers will be creating an interactive online map that allows people to tour the best and brightest of the season.

Brandy is a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a serious love for belly rubs, fetch, and being your constant shadow. She’s sweet, affectionate, and always ready to flop over for tummy time! This big, bouncy girl handles beautifully and is incredibly people-oriented—so much so that being left alone makes her sad. She will not hesitate to vocalize when she feels lonely or may try to find an escape route to get to her people. Because of this, she’d thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time to shower her with attention and keep her company. Brandy is easily excitable and can be jumpy when making new friends with people, so she’s best suited to a home without kids. She knows “sit” and “drop it,” has a cute little auto-sit when she wants something, and will gently place her toys at your feet for fetch (which she LOVES and doesn’t destroy—bonus!). Brandy also insists on being the one and only furry royalty in your life. She doesn’t want to share her humans, her home, or her toys—so no other pets, please! She’s ready to rule her kingdom solo as the Queen Bee she knows she is. If you’ve got a secure yard, a good throwing arm, and room in your heart for a one-dog show, Brandy just might be your perfect match. Check out LAPS here for more adoptables .
