Mine will go up sometime in the next two weeks - before Thanksgiving. I love to decorate.

I decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving. My hubby goes to the mountains with his friends on Fri and comes back Mon night for deer hunting. Other than not having help to move things around, I like having no one around to interrupt me or to worry about feeding etc.

We'll start it probably the week before Thanksgiving because we are going to Florida for the first part of December. I want to have it done and enjoy it a little before we leave for vacation.

Probably the weekend after Thanksgiving. It is such a bother now days, no little ones live here. I use to decorate the house when the kids were still here and then when Grands were little. We have Christmas Eve here and I will decorate my pre-lit tree and take it down Christmas Morning, just Hubby and I will be here by ourselves.

We put our tree up the Saturday before my sister's birthday (Dec. 20) and take it down the day after my husband's birthday (Jan. 3). Works great for us. Edie

Last year I had all 5 trees up by now ( stupid I know ) because it took so mch time.This year I feel Hum-Bug and am only going to decorate the one tree on Thanksgiving weekend. I may get it out and fluffed today but keep it in a spare bedroom....This year, with the economy so bad for so many people, it feels wrong to go overboard....
