So sorry that I didn't get here yesterday to post a question of the day
Shame on me. To be honest, I got really caught up in decorating the house for the Christmas season. This year will be very different for our house. We will only have 1 of our 3 kids home this year. It should be interesting, but I have a feeling it will be kinda quiet. Since it is going to be different, I decorated a bit differently too. I am putting up fewer trees than normal. But, we are putting up outside lights and bought 2 deer for the yard. We haven't done outside decorating since we moved into this house almost 5 years ago. Okay, enough with my novel..here is my question:

When do you decorate and when do you take down decorations for the holidays?

We always decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving and we always take down the day after Christmas. For me, when it's over..it's over. I'm done.

Well, I got up all my trees over this past weekend, but they are not completely decorated yet. My house is a disaster. We always go on vacation the week after New Years, sometimes the stuff is down before then, sometimes not.

We usually decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving and leave it up until New Years.

We decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving and take it down after New Years. Sometime we do it the week after Christmas.. it just depends on how busy we are.

We have a Ugly Christmas Sweater party every year at our house for all of our friends...and depending on when we schedule it, is when we determine when we will decorate... this weekend is our "decorate" target for the party on the 11th... rarely do I leave the decor up after Christmas... usually take it down the day after!
