Merry Christmas!

Here is our beautiful, Christmas-ie house :)  I LOVE Christmas lights and, luckily, Lance LOVES putting them up ;)  Okay, maybe he doesn't LOVE it. But at least he loves the results (and me :) enough to do it. But this year it was a particularly sacrificing act of love.

He got the first line of blue lights up on a warm day just before Thanksgiving. (The roof line has a line of blue light and then a light of white icicle lights.) Then two days after Thanksgiving, as he went out to finish with the icicle lights, the whole cat-stuck-in-the-drain-and-Lance-sacrificing-his-fingers-to-save-it thing happened. (See most recent bloody post) After enduring those torturous first days after that event, we weren't sure if he was going to be able to finish. But two weeks later, he got out there and (carefully) did it, broken fingers and all!  Thanks, baby, for making our house so beautiful! :) (I should note that the pictures really don't do it justice, but that's to be expected when trying to take pictures of lights.)
