With my strand of outdoor colored bulbs showing quite a bit of wear and tear from the passing years, I abandoned them and returned to using white lights this year. I strung a single strand of white lights across the front of the house and, just as we did at our prior home, I wrapped the pillars in lights as well. The effect was lovely. That was Sunday.
I didn’t get around to decorating the tree until Monday night. The furniture moving task required was just a little overwhelming for me to do alone. I did my best, but I’m still not pleased with how things ended up. Since YaYa was itching to decorate tree, I knew that I could not hold him off any longer.
