Christmas Lights!


We decided to hang Christmas lights outside this year after all! Tim did all the work on the ladder (I'm a little afraid of ladders actually), and I told him when the icicles got tangled or if things needed to be moved. By the time we were done, Tim informed me that we were not going to be hanging Christmas lights together again. For once I was more of a perfectionist than Tim!





I think the perfectionism paid
off in the end, though Tim might tell you a different story. ;) It's not much, but it does brighten up the house and make me feel more festive!

Christmas Tree!!






We finally got around to decorating for Christmas!! Today has been a good breathing day for me, so Tim and I went out to Strautman Tree Farm about 10 minutes from Ames and cut down our own tree. We decorated it quickly before his class tonight too! I'll let the pictures tell you the rest. :)
