[MoseyWalker]

2. yep!

enjoy your holiday spirit and thanks for sharing!

3. Nah, my niece and I put up Dad's 3-foot tree today.

Well, she put about 7 ornaments on before she decided to focus on something else. 7 year olds are hard to keep busy. :hi:

5. Haha!! You got that right!

:hi:

4. I have two up.

One is all decorated...the other..not quite. But, I'm getting there! Garland on the staircase and over the mantel, etc. Tomorrow...outside the house!
I'm really getting an early start this year.

[Shell Beau]

8. Yeah, tomorrow, we will do the outside!

The tree took us long enough!

[Deja Q]

6. I did mine 3 weeks ago.

I could still put up the gold garland if I wanted to...

7. Who cares, Shell, if it makes you happy?

I put mine up in the middle of December and keep it up until the Epiphany. :-)

10. I am tellin' you, I saw a tree up in September!

Some people REALLY can't wait! I feel like a kid at Christmas!

9. I actually have some I made when I was little...

but they are too big and heavy for the little 2 ft. artificial tree we are putting up this year. :(

I will hang them from tinsel strung across the fireplace instead. :)

but not till Dec. 1st, at least.

11. Ours is going up tomorrow

We bought a bunch of silk flower leis, took them apart and restrung them into a flower garland. Then we have 250 cocktail umbrellas to stick on the tree. If it turns out ok I'll post a picture of it.

[Shell Beau]

12. It sounds like a fun tree!! Have fun putting it up!

[Generic Brad]

16. And it was cheap just like me

All new holiday decorations for $21.00 :woohoo:

13. I have tried to put some lights and a few ornaments on my Norfolk pine but my young cat delights

in knocking eveything off.

I will but stuff on the walls instead.

14. We put our tree up on Wednesday...my wife and I decorated it while the kids watched "Men in Black"

(not exactly traditional, but what are you going to do?)

15. I never took it down from last year. n/t

[Zomby Woof]

17. It's because you're a stoopid southerner!

;-)

We're waiting until December. Probably a week or two before xmas. It makes it more special for us to keep the holiday limited to just part of the month it takes place.

We don't want to get burned out on xmas before the middle of December. :-)

[Shell Beau]

19. I hear ya!! Usually Thanksgiving is closer to December than

this year, or at it seems that way! But we always do it the day after Thanksgiving! Keep in mind, that my husband and I have only been married(close to) 5 years, so you know... We are trying to make it "tradition". I never get tired of any holiday, but my husband would totally agree with you there.

[Left Is Write]

18. Nope. We put up two of three. The other will have to wait for tomorrow.

I've also got most of the rest of the Christmas decor up, but we still have to clean up the boxes, the tissue paper and plastic bags I had stuff wrapped, and maybe rearrange a few things. I'm too tired to finish it all up tonight, though.

[Shell Beau]

20. Yeah!! We haven't even started with the outside of the house, though I

keep it tasteful and tactful! No blow up or plastic stuff at this house!

21. A lady at Lowe's today really worked hard at trying to get us to buy...

inflatables for our yard.

All we asked for was a timer, LOL. We don't do inflatables for our yard, but she did try to convince us to change our minds.
