I was putting up lights on the house yesterday and found myself wanting to stay up there longer than usual. When it’s roughly 40° outside (and windy) and you’re putting Christmas lights up on the house your instinct is to put them up quickly and get inside. But when it’s 75° and sunny, getting off the roof is not first in your mind.

Another thing that was far from my mind was Christmas. Although it was November 18th, the weather made it feel more like September 18th. So as much work as I was doing to get prepared for Christmas, it was hard to think Santa was coming in about a month.

I also meant to take some photos from on top of the house while I was up there. From on top, we have quite a sweet view of the back of Target, the front of the new Office Depot (off in the distance) and miles and miles of rooftops. If I think of of it before it drops to 40° on Wednesday, I’ll climb back off and snap a few shots to share.
