. Im glad we didnt put too much up outside this year because it was really cold last weekend and I didnt want to be outside tearing it all down. Getting it all done in time for the association really puts a damper on things.
My tree and most of my decorations are still up. I have taken my village down and packed it up though. It's a start.
However this is not the longest I've ever waited to take things down. One year it almost Valentine's Day before they came down. The joke was we were going to hang hearts on the tree...lol. Since we bought our house we now never exactly take our tree down. We take the breakable ornaments off, put a sheet around the tree, and carry it downstairs to storage until next year. Ok I guess I better get the storage boxes moved so we can walk through the living room.
DW has been working a bit each evening on getting the lights and ornaments off the tree, but the fake tree is still up. We don't have outdoor lights, but we have outdoor decor which will come down this weekend.
