When it needs to get done...ya getta done!!

Since Jimmy is crippled at this moment, I took it upon myself to finally show that we have some Christmas Spirit! Last year around the same time, Jimmy was on crutches and so we never got to put up our Christmas lights. That was not going to happen this year! I braved my roof and my roofing ( That stuff cuts up your hands like you wouldn't believe, maybe I should use gloves next time.) I'm not afraid of heights but there was one point when I thought maybe this was a dumb idea. But its done and I am totally proud of myself! Good thing we don't have a two story!

Way to go Mandy! You are the woman! I AM afraid of heights, and therefore, would never brave the treacherous roof-they look great, jobe well done!

Lesley said...

Very impressive, Mandy! We'll have to drive by and see the finished product sometime. Those pictures of you on the roof are great!

Texas Harveys said...

I'm impressed. At least there wasn't any ice or snow on the roof with you right?

Stephanie said...

Are you for hire? Good work. I want to see them all lit up. Will you guys be in Nevada at all over Christmas?

Tara said...

I am impressed! I AM afraid of heights and sooo I will never do that, but WoW way to be festive.

How funny I didn't read Rachael's comment before I wrote mine, but we basically said the same thing!!!

Dawn said...

You are SUPER WOMAN! I love it! Glad you have pictures to prove it :)

simple mom/wife said...

That's a great picture and very inspiring! Our house is lacking christmas spirit (atleast on the outside) too. I might have to be the brave woman and get out there cause Justin can't either. Love it!

Brandon and Jenn said...

Good for you! Brandon has made 2 attempts to put ours up, but both times he discovered roof issues. After the builder fixed the issues it rained one day and snowed the next. I'm begining to think we aren't getting lights up this year...

woman power!
Doesn't it always take a woman to get things done around here? :)

I want a night shot of the house!

Heather said...

Wow, I am totally impressed. We have yet to put up any Christmas lights our entire married life!! Daniel isn't a fan of heights and neither am I. Hmmm, I wonder if next year we can bribe Liam. hehe

Kim said...
