Good night John Boy.
A week ago tomorrow we put the tree up in its stand.
(Because my college son was here and I knew Hubs and I couldn’t lift the tree by ourselves.)
Here stands the tree at 7 p.m. tonight.
Don’t judge. It’s been a busy week.
Our little burg of Madison is hosting its Christmas Tour of Homes tomorrow and Saturday.
I promise to post pictures of my neighbors’ beautifully appointed home on the Tour tomorrow.
As for my decorations, I’ve got a tree in a stand.
But I like my house to look festive for the Tour. So today I asked myself.
Jamie. You are busy. What can you do to decorate the outside?
I usually put white lights on the boxwoods around our porch.
Nope. Bored of that.
So it came to me today. The garden.
You can decorate the garden fence.
So that is what I did.
I was so excited.
I loved it.
It was my little garden all tricked out for the holidays.
My collards by Christmas light.
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the garden,
Not a veggie was stirring, not even a collard.
I was so happy I decorated.
When my husband came home I asked, “What did you think of my lights? The garden. Isn’t it awesome?”
His reply, “It looks like Christmas on Walton’s Mountain. Like when they made the ornaments out of paper.”
Good grief Jim Bob.
I don’t care.
Well, maybe I do. And I’ll get the tree done tomorrow (maybe) and post photos from my very clever friends home.
Have you decorated outdoors?
