Amen. This year I am moving all my Christmas stuff to a warehouse to store and sort it out. I still have enough lights, garland, ornaments, etc to decorate a dozen trees. Time this year to share the...
The outside is gone with two exceptions. The large lighted wreath above my door (mainly because I do not want to get out a ladder to take it down and redo it yet) and the icicle lights on the roof...
Everything but the inflatables are down. I needed the time for the other items to dry out. The rest come down today while the weather for these next couple are in the upper 30's... :waving:
Since the weather is a little bit warmer today, I have already started removing the outside decorations. It will take a little while for them to totally dry off and then the plans for next year...
Part stays up longer, like the icicle lights on the roof and sometimes the lit garland around the garage. I have been known to fire them up now and then... :reindeer2:
Since January 1st falls on a Friday this next year, I'll probably get the outside ones down beginning on the 4th... :santa2:
I don;t know about taking them down this year, but if this gound freezes any more, it will take a RR spike to be able to put the Christmas ones in... lol :dizzy:
Most of the outside is down just after New Year's Day. Of course the ground is so hard that many of the stakes are still there till Spring. :home:
I hope so too. They are a great way to show your enjoyment of the season. Mine change from year to year as well... :santa1:
Some of mine never come down all the way. Like now for Christmas in July... :elf3:
The first month has nearly come to an end. Still a few lights around the garage and I will wait till I move my daughter up north before I take them down. It does require a bit of room... lol
Nothing on the patio?
A minor change to my last post... the yard stuff came down, but the lights around the door and garage are still up. :gingerhouse:
Mine came down last weekend. Could not resist, temps in the 30's with an expected cold front in the teens to single digits coming in... :home:
I'll be checking on the weather after the 5th... :home:
A bit of both... lol... :merrychristmas:
Last year with visitors occupying much of my home, some stayed up all year long... :home:
Most will come down the 2nd full week of January... :home:
Usually the last weekend in January (depending on the weather here in SD). However, due to frozen ground, some of the stakes wind up in the turf till early Spring...
