Right now we've got the door outlined in the fat lights, and one of the two boxwoods, trimmed in the shape of a large sphere, that flank the front door, spiraled with tiny multicolored lights. We ran out of little lights to do the other boxwood, but I think Chris bought some more today. They're on sale now. He called today to ask if I wanted some for the tulip tree, and I hemmed and hawed, but finally said no. But maybe I'll change my mind.

They do lift the spirit, and the spirit needs lifting when the days are so short.
Edit: I talk too much. It's not noticable when others are talking. Where did everyone go?

Oh, I bet you would love our house, then. Because it's Victorian, we just have pine garlands with little white lights swagged across the porch with big red ribbons at each post. There is a white candle and a wreath with a big red ribbon in every window. And the Victorian lamp on the walkway is wrapped in red ribbon with a big red bow.
And in the round little area at the end of the front porch is a tree covered with white lights. It's very old-fashioned looking.

EVeryone in SOuthlake this year seems to be using those lights that are supposed to look like icicles. Most of the houses are really tastefully done.
Probably by a decorator.
Ewwww-
