    What do I want for Christmas? nothing, have everything I could ever want with the wonderful guy I am lucky enough to call my hubby.
    That is Beautiful :!:

    Hubby and I no longer put a tree up. Just the two of us. We do though decorate our yard with lots of outdoors stuff and lights. We do it mostly for our neighborhood and especially the kids since most do not decorate around here. We live in a very transient community with migrant workers and the military so around holidays like this not many folks decorate.

    No tree here either. First year without one. My neighbor did bring me a poinsetta that brightens up my living room. I thought before that I just had to put up decorations but it just got more difficult dragging out the decorations and then putting it all away after Christmas. I am glad not everyone does as I do because I do enjoy seeing all the lights and decos in the neighborhood and town.

    We are a young couple without kids and don't do any decorating. It's just too much work to put it up and take it down and like others have said, I'd rather spend my free time quilting and he'd rather be playing video games :P
