Light up the Holidays
Jill, Kelly & I judged the houses lit up for Christmas last night. 
Here are some shots of the best.
Best business display: Decades of Beauty
Detail
Whimsical: Jenn & Rich
Victorian: Pat & Ray
Green Christmas (LED lights)
Most Christmas Spirit
An org that I'm secretary of bought new decorations for Main Street. We've taken 2-3 years to make this decision. I'm glad it's done and the lights are cute. They're smaller than I had hoped but the next option was $1100 each instead of $325ish.

Zombie warning
I'm helping jill wrap presents. Santa got Shane a bleeding zombie target. And Liam is getting a remote controlled flying clown fish. Who knew such things existed?? (at the same time, I'm grateful for my non consumerist life)
Chairs
We got guest chairs! Also from buffalo business interiors. I took a couple shots of the desk that the PartnerTBNL likes. We also got internet connectivity. It took about five hours total - an hour or so on Saturday and then four hours today. That's not including time on the phone with various parts of Verizon. However, I'm thrilled the office is set up and ready to work in.
Brunch at betty's
Office chair & plants
We still need chairs for guests and a coat hook rack.
Our desks have these strange cord keepers with brushes. They meet in the center and then also have little brushes along the window side of the desks. A very strange innovation.

Desks!
We got two beautiful solid wood desks and returns from Buffalo Business Interiors. The warehouse is HUGE - just ridiculous numbers of identical chairs and desks. Each new giant room was another laugh. It was pretty overwhelming but we waded thru two floors of stuff and found three sets we liked. Well, two sets we both liked and one that I liked. We went with the nicest looking of the two. PartnerTBNL fell in love with a custom $12,000 desk that had been used and refinished and is now selling for $2,500. Oi. Of course, my dream desk is an antique oak one which I'm sure will cost a pretty penny as well.
We're waiting for internet connectivity. And the PartnerTBNL needs a chair.
