I know, most of you have already taken down your decorations but I missed the week after Christmas driving down here. So I put up my ceramic tree, two little ceramic houses and a fiber optic tree!! Let the season commence in spite of the 80 degree temperatures. Forgive the picture it is the first one I've ever taken and posted with my iPad

@BelleStarr Heat heat pump right now don't know what to think as it goes from cooling to heating and back in one day here sometimes. Right now it is muggy and warm out. More seasonable temps are expected by Friday

@Elizaby oh I know, a flick of the switch and we will keep the temps exactly as we like them. I prefer seasonal temps

If I had things my way, we would just do fine with a small table-top Christmas tree. We don't need the huge tree, but my husband insists on it. I like your tree, perfect size in my mind.

It is, I put up two of these at home and I don’t miss the big tree at all. As long as your husband puts it up and takes it down I guess he can insist but if he doesn’t, I would revolt!! Lol

I never take the decorations down before the 6th of January (Epiphany), for the moment the dining room is still fully decorated. I am almost sorry that soon it will be over.

I keep it up until Candlemas February 2, according to my friend the priest, that is when the season ends

@BelleStarr I have never seen people keeping the decorations until February, but if you like why not.

Use a different calendar. Some people don't celebrate Christmas until January 7th, so it's cool! Actually and this was years ago I had a friend who in the hospital during the Christmas season. When he was released he went home and put up his Christmas tree. It was February! He said he had to call somebody to check to do some repair work at his apartment. When the guy came and saw the Christmas tree all lit up, the handyman looked at him like he was crazy! A Christmas tree in February?? He said he didn't care. He missed Christmas because he was in hospital and he was going to enjoy the holiday no matter what time of the year it was!
