homeowners

There's just nothing like owning a home. Even if it melts in the rain and doesn't have a door that opens.

This beloved Christmas tradition left us with a deliciously jolly home, a snowman with a toupee, and our own pool.

The Lansgings, on the other hand, were ready to take a baseball bat to theirs. Of the two kits, it would appear Doug and I ended up with the good one, and Joy and Ted got the definitively lame one. Notice the can inside the house trying to hold the walls up. Sorry guys!

And speaking of homeowners... we also checked out some houses along Richmond's Tacky Lights Tour. There's festive, and then there's these people. Way to go above and beyond! May the rows of cars driving slowly past your house in disbelief make the electric bill all worth it.

I love your house, you are so lucky to be a home owner now! I hope it keeps you warm. The Tacky light tour is awesome, we did that too and now we are going to have to go back everynight for Whit.

Love the house and love the sweater. Very cute on you. I wore it ALLLLLL the time. Almost bought it in black too. The joy of comfortable clothes is so very important while pregnant.
