    Usually after thanksgiving.

  • Christmas trees:
    1. Do you have one every year? 

    I put one up every year.  I hate my tree and am not putting it up this year :( Part of it is me being a brat because I want a house and not to live in my parents' basement apartment anymore.

    2. Real or Artificial?

    The tree I have an artificial, tabletop tree.  I'm over it and I want a real tree.  My parents got a real tree every year since I was 9.  H's parents also get HUGE real trees.

    3. Colored lights or white?

    I can go either way on a tree, I have white lights though.  Outside, I only like white lights.


    4. When do you put it up?

    I usually put it up around the 10th, or the closest weekend.

    5. When do you take it down?

    Before I got back to work, after New Year's Day.  Sometimes I take it down on New Year's Day.
  • Christmas trees:
    1. Do you have one every year? we have every year we've lived together. When we were in the apartment, our roommate did the big tree, but H and I got mini trees for our bedroom.
    2. Real or Artificial? Real, even the little ones!! (Although we do have 2 artificial mini-trees)
    3. Colored lights or white? I'm a huge fan of colored lights, so we have those on our main tree. The outside and our mini-trees are white lights, which I like as well. 
    4. When do you put it up? We put it up this past weekend!
    5. When do you take it down? We'll see...January sometime.
