After getting to Target and ordering a delicious lunch (popcorn!) we headed to the
Christmas sorry I mean Holiday area we finally found the
Christmas Holiday lights aisle and spending ten minutes going through all the lights we found not a single box of the brand I was looking for. Then we had the best idea ever to use one of the apps on Kevin's phone to scan the bar-code and find out where these lights are sold. After spending about five minutes trying to get the app to work Kevin noticed the 'Big Lots' sticker on it. So off to Big Lots we went to yet again not find a single box. We did find some motion lights made by the same brand so in one last effort we went to the Big Lots in New Haven. There we found tons of the lights I wanted! After spending three hours trying to find my lights we finally made it home and I started to put them on my tree. That was a major fail! I blew a fuse. How was I supposed to know you can't hook up eight strands of lights together? I had to take all the lights off the tree and Kevin had to find and fix the strand with the now broken fuse. Did I mention when the lights went out we had no idea what had happened and had to call my mom for help? Yeah that happened. It took
forever but all the lights (17 strands) are on the tree and it is waiting for me to start adding ornaments. That I will start tonight and hopefully finish by Thanksgiving.
