We decorate when we find the time.  I prefer after Thanksgiving, but if one of the kids wants to tackle bringing up the big tree box, I am ok with that!!

Our daughter put the  tree up yesterday; today I had the 2 year old grandson "help" me string the lights.
there is still some discussion going on as to which decoration style we are going to do this year.

All red and gold glass *bleep* or the Hallmark ornaments I got each kid over the years.....

We will probably start decorating next weekend. We have to drag the stuff out of the attic first!

Usually the last week before Christmas. That way we can save on our electrical bill. I don't really decorate outside the house except to put up the Christmas tree and lights easier to clean up after the holidays too.

I put my decorations and tree up on the 22nd, I like to have the house festive for Thanksgiving dinner and guests.

Today I put my tree up in my bedroom :)

I only put candles in all the windows and I will start around Dec. 1 after I dig them out.  I no longer do anything outside.

I guess we will be doing that in a week or two. I am not really a Christmas person when it comes down to it.

You are wise for not celebrating it.Its tough in this world even when you know its pagan to still NOT be drawn into it...but consider.......

12/25...the date is NOT even mentioned in bible.Yet we know every year the date of Passover.The day Jesus was killed and that he told us to remember.In 2017 it falls on 4/11 after sundown.

Even the Encyclopedia Britanica will give you support of 12/25 being a pagan holiday that is NOT supported biblically.

The bible also says shepards were out with their flocks when the angel announced Jesus birth.On 12/25 in Bethlehem it is a cold rainy season and shepards would not be out then.

Thank you!
