...And the Lights are On! (Deck the Halls Part 3)



When I came home from a meeting after church tonight Marty and Heather already had many of the lights up outside. I've mentioned before how much I love pulling into the driveway when all the Christmas lights are on.
This is the view that met me tonight:
Marty and Heather working on putting up the lights.

Heather got the job of driving the stakes into the ground for the lower lights. Bet she's glad we live in the sand hills!





Ho Ho Ho...who wouldn't go...Up on the house top....




Marty attempting to make his windmill look like a Christmas tree.






He finally got most of the lights working on the cross he made me a couple of years ago.




Almost through!








For someone who was never a big fan of Christmas early in our marriage...

he sure does get into the spirit of things now!

Thanks, Babe!

Oh I love your outside lights. Your Santas are wonderful, and your last photo of your finished tree is spectacular.

I too am a christian mum, with a (new) camera never far away.

Merry Christmas to you and yours from Northern Ireland.
