Just wondering how many people put up outdoor Christmas/Holiday decorations??
My hubby and I have TONS of outdoor decorations but have not yet put them up. :o We're planning on doing it this Saturday and the HIGH for Saturday is only going to be 33 degrees!! :eek:
Yep, their up! And I love them! We even have our tree all decorated, and the inside of the house looks GREAT! (Thanks to mom!) ;)
We have all of our inside decorations up and the tree is up. My job is to put the outside Christmas lights up, the deer's up, but the porch lights arn't up yet. :p My first day off in weeks.
We got the inside decorations up last weekend, but we ran out of time and didn't get the outside lights up. We hope to get them up this weekend.
I put the outside lights up yesterday. On The Weather Channel, that was the last day in the future cast which was going to approach 50. TIMING!
The inside decoartions are up, but not the tree. We get a live cut one and this is a bit too early; even though they are selling them, the tree will ry out too soon.
I am hoping to get our decorations and tree out and up this weekend.
We have a fake tree, and having grown up with only real live trees, I actually like the fake one better. Lights are already on it. It doesn't dry out and drop needles all over the place. I don't have to keep water in it. It's just much nicer to me. People always say...but you don't get the fresh pine smell. Eh, that's okay, I don't mind. :) I can light candles if I really want to smell pine.
yes always have..they'll go up in a few days. :)
Because for the almost 20 years I went down to Florida for two weeks during Christmas, I never decorated. But all of that changed last year. So last year I got some things to decorate inside (artificial tree, garland, nativity set), this year I guess I should look into getting some outdoor decorations.
Yes and they're up already! It's my tradition to decorate outside Thanksgiving morning, no matter what the weather. :D
polled no decorations...not yet. we always move around, never a steady home for more than 6 months :rolleyes: so didn't had a chance to get something to celebrate. but in the spirit of christmas for five years this year now, the lights are on my car. I turn them on whenever traffic and weather both are decent.
I hope someday I will, for myself, get a fake tree (plenty of young goofballs here) - I love how the colorful the tree glows at nights - and have gifts under it for once! they always have been in the closet. or in the bags in back of my trunk lol. well, at least I've been over at someone else's house, with a christmas tree, fireplace and stockings every year.. always a miracle.
I dont decorate outside, we live out in the boonies, and the only people to see them would be us. So we dont bother. But I go nuts inside!! he he he!! But I have yet to start my decorating, will be doing that soon tho!!:D
Hubby used to put up outside lights years ago but has gotten somewhat lazy. :rolleyes: For the past few years we have only had candles in the window which look OK I guess.
As far as decorations, I only have two snowmen sitting on my entertainment center. I really haven't had time to go through all of my Christmas stuff yet, and we can't set up a tree because of the cats. :rolleyes: Hope to get some more stuff out this weekend and get the candles in the windows. :)
As the bartender would say..."Done!" We did it all last Saturday...tree up, banister draped, house lit....and Santa is hiding behind a tree!
Our lighted yule star is on the top window of our house year-round. The rest of the lights go up on the house after thanksgiving. No decorations inside yet. Not until December.
I don't like cold, and I don't like ladders. Therefore, inside decorations only.
