elena_398 Posted October 30, 2005 Author Posted October 30, 2005 yes they do. Love the variety of food items. Kettle corn is so yummy!
Jean Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I started two weeks ago... I have 3 treees up so far...
Gporter34 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 This could be very bad. All of this tree talk is making me want to put it up NOW!!! But I am trying to be more self disciplined this year and not lose my mind.lol I said that I was putting it up next weekend and I am. My hubby calls it "the first step to recovery", admitting that I have a problem.lol I do, there's no denying that. Last year the kids came home from school on Nov. 1st and the tree was up, wreaths were up, and I was putting lights on the house. They were horrified!lol
erh12275 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Ours usually goes up the day after Thanksgiving...but this year it will have to be Saturday.
ChrisKsAngel Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 We always put ours up Thanksgiving weekend. We get the tree up and the lights on on Saturday. Sunday is spent putting the rest of the decorations on the tree. We make it into a big thing every year. We put on the Christmas music and spend all day decorating the tree and the house. My daughter looks forward to it every year. I never tackle this on BF, as I am so tired afterwards!
Momto32003 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I am with all or you early birds. Wish mine was going up NOW!! Hubby would freak out. LOL. Since he has a drill next weekend it will probably be the following weekend. Kids have there Christmas pics shceduled for that day and then we will come home and take there Christmas card PICs in front of a lit fireplace with there stockings above and decorate afterwards.
kulkel Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 The day before Thanksgiving. I use to put it up Thanksgiving evening but since I fould my love of BF I have to put it up before! Nothing can interfer with my BF shopping! LOL
avsfan Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 We tend to do it gradually... between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Guest all2tired Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 First Saturday in December is when everything goes up except for the outside decorations. They go up on BF when it isn't bitter cold out yet
mama2ella Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I will try and get stuff from the attic the week of Thanksgiving and I may start that week since I am off of work
launaenix Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 I take down my Holloween decorations o Novemeber 1 and the Christmas follows that same week. I have a 200 peice Christmas Village that takes 2.5 weeks to put up alone. Then the tree goes along with the theam so as soon as the Village is complete the tree goes up too.
Kygal2003 Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 We put ours up the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Postal Phil Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Usually Thanksgiving after dinner but I hope to get a earlier start this year
melissainmi Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Xmas stuff usually comes out about a week before thanksgiving but the tree doesnt go up till that weekend. I bought new stocking hangers and took them out of the box today(bought them last year) and put them on a shelf, now I want to decorate it all... I try to do the outside lights as soon as I can due to weather here in MI.
eve Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Sometime Thanksgiving weekend! Whenever i find the energy
provresgrp Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Always the week after Thanksgiving. No particular day, just sometime that following week.
srace Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I always do mine the weekend after Thanksgiving.
t_mulkey Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 We usually have a outside lights up by now. We are a little behind. We just recently moved and have to have more outlets installed outside. My DH goes overboard with outside lights. We don't turn them on until Thanksgiving night. We usually put the tree up BF night. Can't wait.
Gporter34 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Well, I went ahead and got the 61/2 ft. pre-lit white tree at WM tonight.lol I couldn't wait because they only had two left. So, I am still hoping I can wait til next weekend, but now I'm not sure. All of the BIG snowmen that sit around the bottom of the tree came out today, and I "found" a whole box of decorations I bought last year after Christmas and forgot about. So I am even more anxious now.
elena_398 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Posted November 1, 2005 Well, I've pulled and put together my tree and boxes of decorations in the garage. I think I'll start next weekend! Im so excited
ebony0421 Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Dh and DD put the tree up on bf or that Saturday. If I had my way, the tree would already be up. :yay: :yay:
