Christmas Traditions

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!
