Busy Day . . .

We had a very productive day on Friday. It started out with James deciding to fix the roof. There was a smallish spot that was starting to leak, so before it started to rain he wanted to fix it. We went to Home Depot and he got all kinds of stuff for it. Meanwhile as I sat in the truck waiting for him there was a weird guy either selling drugs or stolen property. He kept walking around saying "Hey I got a deal for you". Needless to say I immediately locked my door and started planning my escape. LOL
After he was done getting all the supplies we went over to the new house to take a look. The day before we were there and the roof tiles were still not on and there was a roof vent exposed to the outside. James was freaking out, so much so that he took it upon himself to take a piece of plywood upstairs and reached out a window to cover it. So Friday when we went by they started to put the tiles in place. They also had 2 of the 3 columns in front of the house covered in stone, and the stair railings up. It's amazing how quick it is going and how much it really looks like a house. We were over the other night and it was freezing outside, but inside it was nice. The insulation is AWESOME!!! Before we know it we will be moving in.
After our daily check on the house we went to Davis Ranch just outside of Sacramento to get our Christmas tree. We found the perfect one right away. James cut it down and home we went. As soon as we got home to the roof like Santa he went. Later that night since I got the night off we put the tree up and decorated it. All my childhood ornaments, our new wedding ones, and all the ours we have collected went up. After it was done we sat back and just admired the tree and each other. I can't believe it is already Christmas, before we know it it will be Christmas again!
