Christmas Lights 2010

Our first full Christmas season in our house meant Gary putting up his Christmas lights. We started in November just before Thanksgiving. Chris was over to help Gary the first day of putting out the lights.

When he got on the roof, he scared the poop out of me. I was thankful Matt was at the house in case he did fall off the roof.


Anyone who knows my husband knows that he LOVES Autocad and makes diagrams. This one was color coded and he had done the math to calculate the amps to each socket.

The finished product took several weeks of tinkering. We had to wait and wait on the A&M sticker from College Station to complete the star atop the tree. It is painted maroon with the A&M logo. I believe there are about 17,000 lights outside. The tree inside has a crazy amount as well. Just this weekend we had someone steal a candy cane from the front yard but other than that no big problems.

Merry Christmas!
