I know it's too early, but I don't know if I can wait

I know Halloween was just last weekend, but I am getting so excited to put up my Christmas decorations.  I always try to wait until the Friday after Thanksgiving, but we are going to be on vacation for that whole week.  DH is out of town for the weekend.  I wonder what he'd do if he came home to a Christmas tree!?!

i think that is too cute. i can never get into the christmas spirit... by the time we actually get around to decorating and what not, christmas is almost over and it flies by so fast. so i say go for it. goodness knows the department stores have already started!

I say go for it!!!  I was actually thinking of putting up mine sometime in the next couple weeks.

I am the same way.  I have the house decorated for Thanksgiving right now, but there's just nothing like Christmas decorating!!  DH and I put up our lights yesterday but we won't turn them on until after Thanksgiving.

DH would kill me he is getting his store ready for Christmas he does not want that in the house yet, it will make him think of work

IMO it is morally wrong to put up x-mas decorations until the after Thanksgiving. *getting off soapbox*

I had these little sculptures of Santa and Mrs Claus that I kept up all year in an homage to my mom who always forgets to take something down. But then the cat broke BOTH of them. I loooove decorating for Christmas, and to stop myself from doing it too early I just tell myself that if i put it up before Thanksgiving it'll all just become part of the background and will lose some of its... specialness.

Yea I would like to put my Christmas decorations up so that they can be up longer... but I also like my Thanksgiving decorations... so I'm always torn between having to take the Thanksgiving decor down to put the Christmas decor up.

I love the holiday season!

I understand it's too early, but I don't really know how morals come into play with it...

If she's going with morals, then put an "x" infront of mas is actually wrong....

There are Christmas movies on today, so I say it's not too early to decorate.  We are putting ours up and watching Christmas vacation!

I was looking at my Christmas decorations today and thinking "I can't wait to put up my tree!!"  But I will wait until after Thanksgiving b/c DH despises Christmas decorations.
