We put up Christmas lights this weekend! A few of our neighbors have them putting them up and we wondered why so soon... then we woke up the next day to snow. Ah ha. So we decided to beat the weather and get them up! And beat it we did.. just barely. It was freezing cold outside and about 15 minutes after we were done is started snowing! It only lasted for a little while but we were sure glad that we got it done. Now that they are up i personally want to turn them on every night, but i think Paul will make us wait until a more "appropriate" time of the season. (we will see... i know where the switch is so there's nothing to stop me) Paul was a champ on the ladder and climbing on our VERY steep roof. I had a few mini heart attacks but we both survived. I was out there every step of the way: doing the really important jobs like feeding lights, giving clips, checking for burnt out bulbs and telling Paul how to get them straighter. They turned out amazing and if i do say so myself, our house looks AWESOME in Christmas lights! It's so fun to be spending our first holiday season with our house! **we may still add a few to the trees, but that's a project for another day.
'Tis the season!
Wow! I can't wait to see your home...someday. And its so wierd to be hearing of snow when it was 75 here yesterday! I don't think we'll have any white for Christmas :(
