Noticed a neighbor already has theirs lit up in the front window.

Sheer insanity. For the people who put them up right after Halloween, that's 54 days to Christmas.

A person on my street had theirs up on November 1st. House was completely lit up as well. We're putting ours up the weekend before Thanksgiving.

No tree or decorations. Lights are up on the house only because brother in law has a lights service and we're the first house on his list for the year.

Unfortunate part is we're the last house he takes down after the holidays.

Nope, but hopefully soon.

I am ready for Christmas to barf all over my house. I love it! Ready for the rib to give the green light so my inner Clark Giswald can take over.

I see both sides. My wife wants to do early November cause she thinks Christmas gets screwed. Which it kinda does. We decorate for fall on 9/1. So it gets 3 full months out while Christmas would only get 1 if we waited until after thanksgiving (especially this year with it being on the 28th).

I agree! I'm thinking of wrapping all my Live Oaks in red lights, house in white lights, and a big ass Nutcracker out front. All before Thanksgiving.

Ho Ho Ho!

Day after Thanksgiving.

Take decorations down while watching New Years Day bowl games.

Christmas decorations should stay up until Epiphany.

I agree that Christmas is awesome. But Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving are a travesty.

What's the point of having a Christmas season if decorations are going to be up for almost a whole month before it really starts?

How many Christmas parties do y'all have planned before Thanksgiving?

It's just wrong. Christmas is no longer special if you have decorations up on November 1.

And I feel the same about people who put Halloween decorations up in August.

Earliest I've ever done Christmas decorations is the weekend after Thanksgiving, but usually not until December. This year is "why not both" protected.

This year I will accept a week before Thanksgiving to give it a full month

We put up Christmas decorations based on work schedules. I have weekends off and my wife works in a hospital where days off vary from week to week. She's the female Clark Griswold, we have 7 Christmas trees in our house, and it takes 3 days to get everything done. We usually try to put up decorations the last weekend in November she has off. It may be Thanksgiving weekend, it may be 2-3 weeks before. Every year is different.

Having said that, people who take down decorations on December 26 are equally wrong, if not more so.

No it's not up. Honestly haven't felt much like it the last few years. Last year my daughter and mother-in-law put it up. We will see if they want to again this year.

No tea, though last time I saw them Bruce engaged in a sword duel with a giant samurai Eddie during Senjutsu.

Is "christmas tree" a euphemism for something?

I've never seen anything that has captured my feelings so perfectly

And to those who say that it's only a month long…become Catholic, and you can celebrate Christmas another 12 days

We bought a new tree that arrived today. Put it up because it made more sense than dragging it to the attic and pulling it back down in 3 weeks. We'll wait until Thanksgiving to decorate it though. Integrated LEDs are the greatest thing to happen to Christmas trees ever
