    Starting Christmas decorating this weekend?

    Is anyone else starting to decorate this weekend? I am putting the tree up and starting to get the stuff out. I will start decorating this Saturday.

    I usually do it Black Friday but it's so late this year. I want to look at my tree.

    How about you all?

    I have been sneaking a little bit out for about a week now and will probably do a couple of trees this week. Since I will have about 20 here on T-Day I don't want a bunch of boxes around so my decorating will be selective but look out on Black Friday. I actually have alot of fall/harvest decorating out right now that fits right in with Thanksgiving so there is a conflict of interests - lol

    I usually start the day after Thanksgiving but things are different this year and I am starting it now.
    Don't have the tree up yet but I have a few decorations up and working all this week on getting more up.

    As much as I would love to at least get out all of my Christmas decorations and see what we have (we buy a lot after Christmas during the 50-75% off sales), I know DW doesn't want to see it yet. After all, I just got all of the Halloween decorations put up in the attic last weekend! Ha ha ha :D Maybe she'll let me get things down so we can take a peek though. We start putting things out on Thanksgiving Day and the day after.

    on Thanksgiving day I will start decorating outside. I have 30' of evergreen garland to decorate our front porch. I am looking to buy 4 large red bows to put on the posts or pillars. When I am done with it I will take some pics of it. the inside is complete now and I am ready for the holidays to make there appearances. Loving it!

    Wishing you many hot cocoa mornings and firesky nights throughout the new year!

    I don't remember when I started, but I did put up one of the smaller trees before Halloween. It can't be seen from the front door. I didn't want any little goblins' mothers to know that I'm crazy.



    I'm taking it slow and easy.
