I am so excited for the holidays. Saturday I decided that since Christmas was only one month and ten days away, we should put up our lights. Chris promised me he would do it this year since we now have a one story house. I was the one who always put them up at the other house. So, anyway, Chris got them up and turned them on and realized that five of the strands did not work. So, he took them all down and took out each individual light bulb and sanded off each wire. I told him he was crazy, but he said he refused to pay forty dollars to buy new ones. Well, it actually worked! So, he put them all back up again, then one of them was not working again. So, once again he took those down and fixed them again. They look awesome!!!
Then I decided to put up the Christmas tree in the living room. Last year because we had just moved here, and had to have the piano upstairs, because we were finishing the basement, we only had a little two foot tree sitting on the piano. I didn't realize how much not having one last year affected the little kids. When I got the tree out, they where going crazy they were so excited that we were going to have one this year.
Here is a coupleof picture of our house. It is kind of hard to see what it really looks like, but it is cool. You also can't see that we have lights on the six trees on the south side of our house.
