So hands up all those with their Christmas Decs up?

I don't yet - it's a bit early for me. I like to wait till maybe 10 days before Christmas Day.
Noone in our street has any decorations up yet - don't want to be the first!!

I put mine up last Friday, I was just too excited to wait any longer. Just waiting for DH to put the lights up outside.

Mine went up on the saturday just gone- tree, lights and Mickey/Minnie stockings from the DD Christmas shop too! There are some 'bright' houses decorated with lights nearby- you could feel like you're in Blackpool, or better still MGM with the Osbourne lights.

That last one takes a little more imagination.

Had mine up for over a week now. We were away last Christmas and New Year at Disney so thought I would make an extra special effort this year with the tree, loads of lights and lighted decorations in all the windows downstairs, thought as a single mum, I had done a spectacular job and who really needs a man about the house!!! until................ last night when there was one almighty bang and the whole house was plunged into darkness. Had to swallow my pride and ask my next door neighbour to help. When he looked at how many plugs I had going he was not the least bit suprised I had blown the fuse box, he spent about an hour fixing it while I spent an hour taking half off them back down again. Oh well, still got the tree!!

We put ours up last weekend. I usually wait until at least 2 weeks before Christmas, but we'll be at WDW then! Thanksgiving weekend was the only logical time for me to do it as this weekend I'll be preparing for our trip and there's only 6 days after we get home until it would have to be done.

Its my baby's first Christmas...and I'm very sad I couldn't do a real, live tree this year....but we planned this before we knew she'd be coming. I've had a huge live tree for each of my other kids' first Christmases. And this one is also our first in our house! Ah, well, there's always next year.

Whoops, just realized I'm on the wrong board....well, hello from the states anyway!

I have got my tree up and some small deccies around the house. DH and I are going to put up the other lights outside tomorrow morning, we also have a blow up Tigger, and a seperate sleigh being pulled by eeyore and pooh and tigger are riding on it! How cool! We bought that from Super Target last week!

I bought a lovely rooted tree in a gold pot today for outside our front door. That will be decorated and lit tomorrow in readiness for Advent when we'll also put the door wreath out. We have a HUGE artificial tree that everyone thinks is real, for the sitting room and smaller ones for the conservatory and family rooms. I shan't put those up for at least another week or so. I think if the decorations are up for too long it spoils the special magic of Christmas....but I might just give in..it's happened before!

Our tree and decs have been up since last Sunday Hubby's such a kid - he wanted everything up as the 1st fell midweek. Mind you, I wasn't complaining We'll be leaving it up even though we'll be going away over the holiday period.
