It's Begining To Look A Lot Like Christmas

At least at our house it is.  Tonight Park put lights in all of the windows of the house that face the street.  He wanted to put lights on the roof, but because he is still recovering from knee surgery, that was out of the question.  While Park was lighting the windows, I was a cleaning machine...vacuuming, dusting, doing laundry, cleaning bathrooms, mopping floors, doing dishes...you get the picture.  When the house was finally clean, I broke out the Christmas tree and decorations.  We just have a small fake tree this year.  We celebrate Christmas at Park's parent's house every year, and my mom and Mary and Ramsey will all be out of town for Christmas.  Maybe next year we will have a big, real Christmas tree, since it will be Baby's first Christmas.  What a great feeling it is to have a clean house decorated for Christmas.  Ahhhhhh.  

Pretty lights and tree.
