How John hangs outdoor Christmas lights:
1. Measure the house.
2. Count the number of snowflake/lights.
3. Calculate the proper spacing between snowflakes in inches.
4. Mark the intervals with masking tape.
5. Hang the light clips on the tape marks.
6. Attach the snowflakes in a beautiful array--
perfectly symmetrical, mathematically correct, and aesthetically pleasing.
How Sarah hangs outdoor Christmas lights:
1. Pull them out of the box and (sort of) untangle the cords.
2. Talk to the neighbors while clipping them onto the house haphazardly.
3. Tug them into a generally even-spaced placement.
4. Ask the neighbor's opinion...Do you think they're spaced okay?
(He told me that a little imperfection makes it look more charming. Thanks, Mike!)
5. Plug those puppies in. They look pretty in the dark, anyway!

How Cory hangs lights? He goes to Home Depot and buys $100 of new lights to motivate him to put up lights so he doesn't have to deal with the same problems as last year. Then he lets the girls on the roof with him, so that I can have a heart attack early in life...
Sounds good to me...it is a lot like how I hang pictures in our house. Thank God for touch up paint!:)
