So, Rusty took a photo of our Christmas lights, then started messing around on Photoshop.
What do you think- Festive? Reflective? Creepy? Just kidding.
I made that wreath. All by myself. It wasn't supposed to be nearly that BIG. It was fun- made out of bush trimmings, coat hangers, and zip ties. But I don't think I'll make one again- it took forever!
Since September, I've been trying to find a lot of "sit-down" projects like that wreath. Something that doesn't involve walking, turning, bending, etc. I've become an official wimp- I'm winded and need a nap after walking around the yard once (granted, it's a big yard). I can't go up and down the stairs more than three times. If I do, I will need a day and a half to regain my strength. I am NOT exaggerating!! Very frustrating. Fortunately, this should be a temporary condition. The baby's due in April. It's a girl. Hannah is very, very excited for a sister. Once I kick the exhaustion and nausea, I'll be excited, too! Sorry, guys- I'm usually not a whiner when I'm pregnant. I get very frustrated with women who whine about such a huge blessing. But this pregnancy is kicking my tail.
We're excited for Christmas, though! Love this time of year. My sister and I have been working on a project for our family, it's one I've put off for years and years. Good thing I decided to ask her to help- having someone waiting for me to finish something is very motivating! Should be done this week. Maybe I'll upload a "snippet" after Christmas- that would be fun!
Hope you all are well!

So excited for you guys!!! And I LOVE your wreath. VERY crafty Michelle, I am so proud of you. And seriously stairs make me winded and I'm not pregnant. Stupid stairs.
