It was an exciting day here at our house earlier this week. Dh's grandparents gave us a US quarter map back in 1999, and I have been diligently filling it up ever since. I've had a hard time finding Hawaii, but Dh came home with 4 of them in his change this week! Now, the collection is complete. Some of the coins are a little tarnished now, so I'll have to clean them up. Eventually, this will get framed and displayed, but for now it lives on the floor under a dresser in our guest bedroom. We certainly know how to treat our important stuff! :)
Our tree is up and all of the lights are on. I can't remember how many lights we have on there, but about 3/4 of the way done, Dh said there was 1800. It's 10.5 feet tall. Hopefully we'll get to actually putting ornaments on it tonight. This is the first time we've had this up in 2 or 3 years, so either way it's nice to look at.
It's been raining here for most of the morning and now the temperature has dropped to 14 degrees last I checked. That makes for some great times outside. I was going to watch my nephew's Christmas program at church and then go to brunch with some friends, but had to cancel because I didn't want to get stuck in this. Hopefully it will be better by tomorrow. I don't want to try to go to work on ice!
