It's December 1st tomorrow and still very few people decorated their lawn with Christmas lights and decoration. I remember last year much much more people decorated their homes. What's going on?!

DECORATE YOUR HOME SO IT LOOKS NICE!

It's still pretty early. I don't get a tree or put up wreaths until about Dec. 10. You'll have to stare at my bare door/windows awhile longer.

I usually put up outdoor lights and will again, but not this early! Yes, I know, some people see Thanksgiving as the cue to start decorating for Christmas, and I even saw some people driving around with Christmas trees on their cars already last weekend.

I grew up in the traditional home where you put the tree up on Christmas Eve. While I now do it earlier, it's only a week or so earlier, not the month before.

I think because it's so hot out and now it's even raining. Doesn't feel too much like the Holidays yet, maybe that's why???

Different strokes for different folks I guess, I saw a few people who decorated this past weekend and I couldn't help but roll my eyes, it's so friggin early!!!

I'm decorating this weekend but only because I have a little one and I want him bask in the magic of the holiday for a while, if it weren't for him I'd probably wait until at least the middle of the month or even the weekend before x-mas.

Christmas is celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ.
It has nothing to do with children - it's for everybody and all Christians.
