LOL.... when I was cleaning Friday, I took some stuff down to storage in the basement and I was half a second from lugging the tree upstairs for the fun of it. I figured the kids and hubby would have teased me mercilessly (not to mention my parents when they come here for Thanskgiving dinner! )

No ... if you go to the supermarket there's TONS of Thanksgiving stuff ... FOOD!!! hehe, Thanksgiving isn't forgotten ... ever. People remember it because they get to pig out! There's just not many decorations for Thanksgiving. We've never decorated for it. Actually I don't know anyone who does.

I BET my sister has hers up too! I am not putting mine up this year since I will be working and not at home. I see nothing wrong with it anymore.. That is a lot of work just for a month of looking at it.

After Christmas, I re-decorate mine for Mardi Gras when I am off.

[finn's mom]

My mom decorates with really beautiful Thanksgiving items...cornucopias and the like...we don't put our tree up til at the earliest, the day after Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving, thankfully, isn't as commercialized as Halloween and Christmas. The malls are the last places I want to be around this time of year, people really get ugly. It's supposed to be a beautiful time of year, but, ugh, it's all so over commercialized, it's not even about that anymore. I try to have all my shopping done early for that reason.

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

Let me ask a question - what's the earliest acceptable date to put up the tree?

[dukedogsmom]

I've only gotten as far as having a tree in my bathroom. We put ours up after Thanksgiving. I love listening to Christmas music, too. It's all I listen to at this time of year. I think your mom has the Christmas spirit early.

lol we had thankgiving ages ago in canada, but not to many people around here start putting up christmas trees till december. outdoor decorations however go up around september/october just because, it gets incredably cold(-50*C) and very snowy in the winter so everyone puts up their decorations before we step outside when its -32*C and start commenting on how warm it is
