Stuff That Makes Us Hillarys: 28 of 30: Yes honey

...in the beginning...

We are the Hillary family. I can't actually claim all of us to be Hillarys, we've meshed with the Stimpsons, the Doxstaders, the Merrimans, and the Lowreys - but the more you hang around us the more we kind of rub off on you, and poof - you become a Hillary. Which, after reading some of the things that we do might sound like a pretty frightening thing. The disclaimer is that I cannot embarrass any of my children, and I promised. Then I uncrossed my fingers. We love the following people in our family.... Del & Nicole, Matt & Bethany & Drew, Em, and the Noahman Ashley & Mike and Baby Mackadamia and soon to be..., Mandy & Ryan, J-man and Dimples, and Ryan and Katie - yes we own two Ryans! Not pictured: Zoey the German Shephard, Opi the newly adopted puppy, BG & Baby Red the Macaws (the latter two Zoey would eat if put in the same picture). Welcome to our Blog. Don't take us too seriously.... life is meant to have a never ending, bottomless tub of buttered popcorn and laughter.

28 of 30: Yes honey - those will work nicely

Ok - so it's been a couple of years since my (handsome, sweet, intelligent) husband has put the Christmas lights up for me. So I laid the guilt trip on him and said that this would be Ryan's last Christmas home for 2 years and he wanted to have the Christmas lights up this year. He was really nice about it and proceeded to put up the lights. Upon arrival home in the dark I see the 1 inch little teeny tiny itsy bitsy lights strung up around the house and standing next to them proudly flipping the switch to ON to show me his great job was my (handsome, sweet, intelligent) husband! Next to him - was the $100.00 box of beautiful icicle lights I've waited several years to see put up again - still in the box. Gotta love him - won't tell him - love my lights! Please feel free to drive by and enjoy them - if you can see them.....and there you go!
