They are wheeling in a Christmas tree here at work.

Meanwhile co-workers are still trying to tempt me with fresh halloween candy


Very funny!

    The day after Thanksgiving. All Christmas goes away New Year's Day - except the manger scene on the mantel. It stays until the Epiphany.

    My household decorations go up whenever I feel like it. One year I had everything up the weekend before Thanksgiving, another year I didn't get my tree up until the weekend before Christmas and last year I didn't even put up the tree. With my Christmas clothing though, I always wait until the Friday after Thanksgiving before wearing it.

    I find it so annoying when I see Christmas stuff before Halloween is even over. I don't do anything Christmas related until Thanksgiving is underway. No Christmas music, decorations, nothing until the turkey is eaten. lol

    Christmas music is allowed and encouraged around me from 12:01am day after Thanksgiving until 11:59pm December 25th :-) Decorations usually come out the weekend after Thanksgiving weekend (or roughly Dec. 1st).

    The outdoor lights go up soon - likely next weekend, however they do not get switched on until December. It's just too cold trying to manipulate lights outdoors in December up here in Canadia.

    The first weekend in December we'll start to decorate. We make it a 2 week process. We like to make snowflakes and other decorations for the house.

    The tree goes up 2 weeks before Christmas. I have too many kids and dogs for it to go up sooner. lol

    I don't really celebrate Christmas anymore so I don't decorate for it.

    Dad?

    My dad would, without fail, haul the tree out to the curb the morning of the 26th.
