12 days of Christmas, day 3

Our lights. Robert always puts up our Christmas lights, I am just the inspector. ;) The tree in the front with the white lights was done at Thanksgiving. He put up the rest the first weekend in December. It is a long job and he takes it seriously. He also does the lights over at his mom's house. What I wanted to highlight the most is our palm tree. Our home was built in the 1950s. What could be more Californian than a palm tree? I have had a love-hate relationship with that darn tree. For the longest time, it was on the way out. I don't know what made me change my mind, maybe it was Robert's refusal to get rid of it. I am glad that he was firm in his decision. I love that tree now. I especially love to see it at Christmas time all lit up.
