Nan,

It sounds like an adventure! I'm sure you will make it special!

My DH put lights up this year outside -- for years we didn't do and the kids would just beg us (remember, I'm into simplicity). It's amazing how something so simple as putting lights outside can make a kid happy. LOL. Now I think DH does it to make HIM happy!

Last year we bought a HUGE pre-lit Christmas tree. Can't wait to get it up...and I hope all the lights work!

When does everyone put up their trees?
