It's starting to look a lot like Christmas~

at my house.  It finally quit raining and so I went out and got a start on my Christmas lights.  I have the pvc trees Steve & I made on Wednesday up that have white LED lights on them and there are 3 of them on my front fence all spaced out.  They are 10' pieces with white lights going up each side and jigging across to create the illusion of trees and we spaced them down the front of our main fence.  Stephanie and I then put colored LED lights in between the trees on the fence and got the icicles on the front of the house.  So far so good, I still have all the wood things to put out, the deer and round trees, and the new items I bought that finally showed up.  My theme is: Santa is in a sleigh with three pink flamingos pulling it.  I have a snowman with a palm tree and a guitar and some elves.  I have four of the white deer of which three heads move and last year I got a small deer at K-Mart for really cheap so now I have a family of them.  I ordered a LED 7' palm tree and 3 LED pink flamingos from HD.com and I still have the gingerbread house to make out of the greenhouse.  I have candy walkway lights, candy canes, and colored icicle lights for around the top.   Oh, and I bought cactus walkway lights which are in a wheelbarrow out front and I still have a set of three packages and a five foot stegosaurus to put out.  But, I'm running out of time for the next few days because tomorrow we:
Go nuts and are taking five kids to Polar Express Train ride in Williams, AZ.  We are driving out motor home and pulling our car.  We will put the laptop in a chair so the little ones can watch movies on the way and the two older ones can read or play games unless they want to pull up a spot on the floor and watch movies.  We already have Hunter tonight because he hasn't spent any time with us so figured we should have him get used to us before we take him out of town.  He is three and so is Karlee so we should have a good time, that leaves, Kassidi at seven, and Jordan at 12, and Stephanie at 17 but more like 12.  Okay, signing off for now~
