I am already thinking how I will decorate this year, but the family has a fit if I start before the Thanksgiving weekend.  It is a lot of work for such a short time.

I love to decorate outside.

I do what I can, I don't climb up the roof, neither does my husband  :(

But I do decorate my trees, plants, sidewalk, fence and my porch with lots of lights.

I do the trees with my broom, LOL! It works  ;D

I normally don't.  My sister wants to but it's too much of a hassle for me.

Too fast and too soon for me.  Let's celebrate Thanksgiving first and be thankful for just being alive today,  We don't even know id we will be around for Christmas. It is so sad. :( :bad:

Haven't really put any decorations out this year. Not sure if I will. Have a little bit up inside the house though. Would like to have more out inside and would really like to put a lot outside too but that's not an option.  :(

I don't anymore cuz it's to costly to waste electricity & x-mas has become too commerciallized to take seriously.

We are thinking of decorating this year since this is our first Christmas in our new house. Don't know if we will do lights on the house but we at least want to hang lights on the trees and hang a wreath. Just got the xmas tree out of storage today. Will conquer the ornaments tomorrow.

We love to decorate, but being in retail we will have to do it when we get the time.  Friday after Thanksgiving we get everything out and start decorating, we have a couple of parties, so it is nice to get the decorations up and enjoy them.  Then all I have to do is plan the cooking for the parties.  I love this time of year.   :heart: :star: :present: :heart:

We start decorating the Friday after Thanksgiving.  We don't shop this weekend, to big of a hassle.  We  do several parties this month, so it is nice to have the decorating done and just have to plan the food.  The Christmas season is so short that it is nice to get the decorations up to enjoy.  I :heart: the Christmas season.  :heart: :star: :present:

I noticed earlier that two houses on my block was decorated as well, but I haven't done anything as yet.
