Hanging our Christmas lights (finally)
So this is a little bit late, but on Sunday Mike finally figured out how to hang our lights...beings we were pratically the only ones on the street that didn't have lights hanging.. It was funny cause he called his dad over to help and it took them an hour or more to figure out how to rigg them up there..well that evening we turned them on and a few lights at the highest point weren't working..Mike was a little upset, but said he would get back up there tomorrow to see what happened! We had went to his parents house that evening for supper and when we got home, NONE of the lights were working.. it was kinda funny (although I knew Mike would be mad, so I didn't laugh out loud!) On Monday he wasn't able to check it out, so finally on Tuesday he found a blown fuses and was able to replace it, plus he had a friend tell him that you aren't supposed to connect more then 2 sets of lights to the same outlet or you will get blown fuses ( I think he had 4 sets of lights on one outlet) so he fixed it to where there were less lights per outlights and we now have a pretty lit up house! Only 7 more days till Christmas!!! Merry Christmas!!

It looks great!
If I would have known last night we would have went and looked at them because we were in Quail Ridge checkin everything out. You should take your kids to the house on Robinson Ranch Rd. You tune your radio onto a certain station and the lights blink with the music, we were really quit impressed.
Dave too was supposed to do lights and decorations on our house. You would think that getting laid off he'd have all the time in the world but he's been more busy lately. Your lights look great! Merry Christmas!
Stinkin' lights...too tempermental! I do the inside and R will usually do the outside (with my help). You're lucky, we didn't even get our outside lights up. We got out the totes and the only thing that we put up was a big blow-up train...it was too cold that night and I guess every other night too. Your lights look great!
