Anyone else putting up their tree this weekend?

[Deleted]

I am! So excited!

[Deleted]

Normally we would be, but my ILs are in town. They are Jewish and don't like that we celebrate Christmas (even though we are atheists) so I think we will leave it till next weekend.

[greekypie]

Yup! Today!

[IrishBelle]

My DDs have been so excited to put up the tree. It will either be tonight or Sunday afternoon.

[vtdiamond]

We put ours up last weekend!

[Deleted]

I will probably put it up today even though I don't want to. I get sick of putting it up/decorating and then undecorating/taking down by myself every year.

[whitemerlot]

We're planning to put it up today. My son is so excited.

[my4girls]

We're going out later today to get one, we'll decorate it tomorrow. I'm excited to decorate the house today and tomorrow!

[sporky]

It's tradition in my family. The Christmas decor always goes up the weekend after Thanksgiving.

[krystee]

We usually do it this weekend, but we're going on vacation a week before Christmas, so we did it last weekend to enjoy the tree longer.

[mellymel]

We are going to go get one today. So excited!

[Deleted]

We might get to it on Sunday. It depends on what else we get done cleaning and decorating, and what is going on with my dad. The tree usually is the last of our decorations to go up.

[wanderlustfoodie]

I would love to buy ours today but the nursery from where I've purchased it the last seven years isn't getting them delivered until Sunday or Monday. Sunday I will get out all the non-tree decorations and also unpack all the ornaments so that as soon as the tree is delivered I can start decorating. We are leaving for our end of year travel earlier than most years so I'm sad I will hardly get to enjoy the tree this year.

[cajunmom]

We usually would be, but we aren't getting a tree this year.

[protozoa]

Me! We're cutting one down today.

[tripleshot]

We are going to do ours today.

[winnied]

We're cutting down our first real one today. So excited!

[RoxMonster]

Mine is already up! We decorated last weekend.

[Deleted]

I'll probably get ours next weekend. Dh is leaving on a trip Sunday and tomorrow is busy. So I'll wait until he gets back.

[msmerymac]

We normally do, but we're moving on December 14. I'll put it up in the new house the week before we move. Floors will be done by December 6.

[zarapipe]

Yep, went up after din yesterday.

[Deleted]

Yep. H has had a bee in his bonnet to decorate the damn house since Sunday. I held him off because I hosted Bible study on Monday, and my mom stayed with us on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. I didn't want the residual mess after we got the decorations half set up!

[dragonfly08]

Technically not this weekend, since it went up yesterday.

That's part of our Thanksgiving tradition...we eat, then DH and the kids haul up the boxes from downstairs while I clean up in peace and I join them to decorate the tree when I'm done.

[rubytue]

Normally I would be doing it, but we won't be in town for Christmas. So we aren't bothering with the tree this year

[ellipses84]

Yes, we are and I'm so excited to decorate tonight. I got the kids each a little ornament when I was shopping this morning. DS loves trains and MIL got us a train set last year so we are putting it around the tree.

[BeagleMama]

Not doing a tree this year but I put up the rest of my decorations, Christmas carols are playing and scented candles are lit. I've already watched The Family Stone and Elf is up next.

Hooray! I love Christmas!

[mollybrown]

I would love to...I'm so ready. However, DS has a December birthday so we never put up the tree until after his birthday. We want to keep those 2 events as distinct and separate as possible for him.
