200th Day!!!!!

Notice how faded the rings on the mantle are? The chain now goes from the mantle, across the picture window, along the wall, behind the sofa, across the hallway, around the arch of the kitchen and along the top part of the kitchen all the way to the deck door!!!!

Connor putting up the 200th ring!!!!!

Tomorrow we get to start taking them DOWN!!!!! This is the longest the chain will be:) Tomorrow, on Paul's birthday we get to start making it shorter!!!!!!!! We have possibly already been past the halfway point but his orders said, "not to exceed 400 days unless extended" so I was focusing on the 400 and not the "year" they were talking about. I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!
