Still Christmas

We are officially the last house in the neighborhood with christmas lights still up. As pretty as they are and as much as I absolutely love Christmas, they've gotta go. I'm somewhat embarrassed to be that family. The past couple of nights I've almost been tempted to just not turn on our outdoor lights since they're all connected. And yet, I don't think my mom and stepdad are all that bothered by it. It'll probably be February before we finally take them down. Then again, I don't know why I'm surprised - my mom never took down the fake mini-tree we put up in our living room at all last year. Christmas all year round here! Candles still in the window, lights still all lit up outside, christmas tree in the living room, garland on the stair railing, christmas decor all over the house... Yep, we're that family.
