Getting into the Christmas swing of things...

The other day we set to work putting the lights up on the house! So fun! We started by taking out all our lights, lining them up and seeing what we had to work with. I started by twisting them all over the porch and poles. While I did that our neighbor comes over and says, Hey Steve, do you need some help? Of course! He helped by holidng the ladder and keeping Steve alive for us! Ha! Daniel helped me sort the lights, Matthew carried them all over the place. Then all the neighborhood kids came to watch, then they all got in on a game of intense tag while we were working. There were about 10 kids running around us, it was so fun, they were so excited for our lights to go up. Right now we are the only ones on our block to have them,

so it was quite an event for all the kids to see!

Daniel helping out!

So delighted!


Steve, our neighbor Frank and Kenny, our neighborhood helpers! Kenny is a good boy, he wants to help anytime we are out in the yard, he is 8 and quite the kid! We love our neighborhood, all the neighbors are so great, we all hang out cause our kids hang out! We are truly blessed!
