My husband and I went out last Friday evening and upon our arrival home we were welcomed by a very beautiful Christmas tree that our daughter (18) had lovingly dragged up from the basement...piece by piece...and put together. It truly was a labour of love.
Now......
She won't stop...there are decorations EVERYWHERE!! Garland all the way up and around the staircase with twinkling lights ...nodding santas....reindeer.....Christmas carols on my computer NON-STOP....you name it......it's out!! I'm going crazy!
I do love Christmas...and we are going to WDW on December 21st so she wants it to last as long as possible before we leave.....BUT!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't even bought one gift yet?!
I miss having real ones, Laurie. Kinda. They're messy and I usually stab myself on them (can't keep my hands to myself around them, they're so pretty ).
Janette, of course that counts. My ds would love you.
Jason, it's not like I'm singing Christmas songs yet. I did see Santa Claus in Walmart a couple of weeks ago though.
Dana, that's usually when I put ours up.
Lea Ann. Lea Ann. Lea Ann. And yet, you have that THING in your siggy.
Not yet, but this weekend we'll put the tree up. We'll put the lights on the next week and the ornaments the week of Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is so late this year that there isn't much time to enjoy it until Christmas!
I'm not savvy enough to know how to post a picture of my tree and I can't really ask the only daughter who would know how to do it as I have 'dissed' her here a 'bit'....so bear with me for a day or so...and I'll see who else can help me out! It really is pretty.....I just feel like I'm coming home to The Griswolds house!!!!!!
the first thing the new congress should do is pass a bill making it illegal for any private residence, or private or public business or agency to engage in any actitivity related to Christmas until after Thanksgiving.

Therefore she has been listening to Christmas music since right before Halloween and our house has been decorated this weekend!
We'll probably put ours up on the 30th. I can't wait. I'd like to get 2 this year... one for the dining room and one for the living room. I've been listening to Christmas music for a while now- I should start dragging some of my decorations down......
