We Put Our Christmas Tree Up!

Call me crazy, but we put our Christmas tree up and decorated the inside of the house Sunday night. It is so pretty!

Anyone else jump the gun and decorate before Thanksgiving like we did?

no....we find ourselves overcome with the temptation to bow down and worship the devil-tree. JK.

Our family does this on Thanksgiving night.

The tree and decorations on the fireplace and entryway will wait until T'giving w/end when my daughter and her husband are in for the holidays so both daughters and sons-in-law will be here. I plan to decorate in the dining room some this week. I'm adding some new stuff in there this year. I love it! Can't wait to get it all done.

Tamor! I just went out to the shop and dragged in five tubs of Christmas decorations. I was looking for ribbon to tie around our gift basket sets at the store. Isn't it fun to see what you forgot about last year? I found a gorgeous 50 yard roll of wired gold embossed and cream ribbon - perfect for two gift boxes. I also found burgundy and gold mess ribbon for the others! Saved me a trip to town. Well, maybe not - still need green, red ribbon and a few more shrink wrap bags. Drat!

Forgot about my gold glitter feathers and my burgundy beaded tassels - tons of them. Don't know what I'm going to do with them, but I'll think of something! LOL!

My husband said, "NO tree up until after Thanksgiving!!" Wutever!!

I have to remove a huge floral arrangement in the corner where I put my tree. I walked in, looked at it and decided to wait until after Thanksgiving. LOL!

LOL! I'm listening to Lionel Richie, Vince Gill and Point of Grace Christmas CD's today! I have a Sinatra CD, not in the mood for him today. LOL!

I love Sinatra Christmas music too! I went to the Dollar Tree last year and bought seven or eight Christmas CD's of all varieties. Swing music, jazz, reggae, etc. Love it, love it!!

Uh, oh - a RED Christmas apron. Am I posting this on the wrong thread?

What is up with that little yellow bow on the side?

We always do it just after Thanksgiving. I will be doing my outside lights this weekend.

I wonder how many will call us Pagan's?

Let's keep this thread going and post pictures of our Tree's and lights.

When they are up...
