Getting Ready

I just got home from a very long day. Tonight is the first evening I have gotten home before midnight in three nights. With HiHo's Holiday Open House only a day away( it begins Friday at noon and continues through the weekend) I have really been pushing myself. I always look to top the previous years displays and this year is know exception. On this past Monday at 6pm a team of fun loving ladies joined me, in my quest for the perfect HiHo Christmas. They listened to holiday music, wired trees with lights, hung ornaments, had a little wine with pizza and got me started towards Christmas 2008.
