Have you got your christmas tree and decorations up yet?  

I don't have a Christmas tree in my apartment. I actually never had one for my whole 18 years of life! My parents never bought one.. until last year they found this really nice artificial tree AFTER Christmas for only 5 dollars. AND it came with nice decorations and lights! So I'm excited to see that tree when I go home for winter break from college. :)

We put ours up the Monday after Thanksgiving. We have an artificial tree. It's about 6 ft. I think. The only other decorations we have are some stockings I've made for everyone, a wreath on the wall and a big red bow and lighted star on the front door.

I don't put up any decorations nor do I have a tree, I haven't done it in years, christmas is just another day for me, like any other. I may go out for Christmas dinner or I cook if I am not sick, but that is it. I always spend it with my boyfriend who always buys me a gift even though he is jewish cause he loves me.

Hi marina321,


That is a beautiful and a gorgous house there, is that your house? and why would you want to leave that house, I wouldn't move from there, its fantastic. I have a 6ft artifical christmas tree and it got all the decorations and light on and I also got streamers on my ceiling and tinsels everywhere, I done mine on the 5th December. I hope you will be very happy in your new home and it would be your first Christmas there so Merry Christmas to you and a Bright New year.

me and my children put up the three last december one. with all the lights and the decorations around the house. it was a yearly event for us to put up the tree and the decorations together. we really make it a point a certain date were we are not busy and we are all at home. we always have fun doing it. we have some old decorations and some are quite new. i didnt buy any new decors for this christmas.

I put my decorations up the first of December. I love to have them up as long as possible!! I bought one of those new trees this year that have the lights already attached to it. It looks wonderful I think.

I haven't put any decorations up yet. I'm way behind this year.

I used to have a big tree when the children were small. Never a real tree because I hate the thought of live young trees being cut just for a few days decoration. That has always seemed wicked to me. I now have a small but very pretty fibre optic tree.

I was reminded to do something this morning though. When I went outside I found the cockatoos had ripped off a branch from one of our large pine trees. Nice shape and it looks like a little Christmas tree. It even has a tiny little pine cone on it. I have it indoors now and the smell is wonderful.

Were not putting a tree up this year or decorating. It's just the two of us here and alot of work so we decided not to do it. We didn't do it last yr either. It's no big deal tho its a pain to put up the tree then take it back down just not into it.

I haven't done anything yet either We put up an artificial tree every year because we live in Florida but I do really miss the real ones!

We don't have ours up yet, our basement flooded last spring and we lost our tree. I had to borrow one from my mom because I refuse to pay retail Since it was stored in her barn it is currently in my truck so any creepy crawlers die out there and don't pop out of the box. I'm thinking by tomorrows 12 degree weather they will be dead if there is any in there.
