Christmas in May?

As we drove down our street last week, we noticed that a few of the houses had their lawn covered with some sort of white material. We were then surprised to discover that those houses on our street were to be filmed in part of a new movie, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, starring Emma Watson (yep, the girl from Harry potter). It is based on a book of the same name (probably not something I'll ever read...), written by an author from here in Upper St. Clair. In fact, the house they filmed on our street is the house he grew up in and his parents still reside there.
The scene on our street was to be some sort of car crash on Christmas night, so they had lights on the houses and luminaries lining the street and that white canvas was covered in false snow and the trees were sprayed with some sort of foam. It was so neat to watch the progress daily, and it sure made for some excitement on our otherwise quiet little street!
One night we ventured down before bedtime to catch a close look and I snapped a few photos, getting as close as I could. Here is what we saw:

If you see the movie next summer, watch for our house! :)
