Umm... huh? Just a tad early, don't you think?

We generally put up the day after Thanksgiving, but sometimes we'll put up the Saturday/Sunday before if it's our turn to host things for Thanksgiving.

frick him he never mailed me his Christmas book. He promised that to me three years ago. It was going to be a holiday staple on our coffee table.
I got my copy the old-fashioned way: Amazon.

Possibly you might also try this Holiday Tradition!

Why is your arbitrary day any less arbitrary than mine?

Friend,

Wins, I mailed one to the address you provided last year. If you need another copy, please let me know.

And Cosmo is right. Wait until the first Sunday of Advent. But I will not hold it against you. There is so much joy in the house because for the first time this year, Mother breathed the words Front Day. She has not called it yet, but 11 days from now there may be a big celebration at our home.

Yours,
TulaneLSU

Who in the takes their tree down? What kind of a barbarian are you? Mine stays up 365. In December it is a Christmas tree, then it becomes a Mardi Gras tree, then a Easter tree and then 4th of July tree, then a LSU football Tree then back to a Christmas tree.

No Christmas tree in my house until we eat thanksgiving dinner. Otherwise it’s just a fake houseplant.


Yep. Skip the Black Friday shopping and get a live tree and decorate. Make a gumbo and feast when the tree is done.

Number one question: Do y'all enjoy having y'alls tree up now? If so, then do it. That's all that really matters.

I mean, you are wrong for doing it, but if you enjoy it, then continue.

I’m guessing prices will be going up with the damage in North Carolina.

We’re putting up our 2025 tree now, next to the 2024 tree.

We lapped a year already, so for a time, we have 2 trees.
