So I woke up and went for my morning jog and saw my neighbor replacing his plastic Dracula with a plastic baby jesus. I was appalled. I have not started decorating for christmas as Thanksgiving is a very important Holiday in my family. What about yall?

Yep. Wife started this past weekend since we'll be out of town the week of Thanksgiving. She wants it decorated when we get home that Sunday, so we'll finish everything except the tree this weekend, then go buy the tree when we get back from Thanksgiving.

No. It's bad luck to put your tree up before Thanksgiving, and you must take it down before New Years Day.

Mine probably won't go up till the first weekend in December.

We have indeed. We are leaving next Friday for my sister-in-law's wedding and will be gone until after Thanksgiving so my wife wanted to go ahead and get at least our tree up and decorated. So I got home Monday from work and pulled all her stuff out of the attic and helped her put all that up and on that night.

Now comes the fun part of decorating the rest of the house. I'm trying to figure out if I want to put lights up outside. If so then I have to get some wire and stuff from work and run some plugs on the front of the house. There is only one plug on the front side of the house and it's in the garage (house was built in '79 so it's not a new one). I need some plugs on the front anyways so I'm going to put one hidden in each flower bed.

I agree with the no pre-thanksgiving decorations rule.

Yep... My wife is obsessed with xmas... I was up in the attic this past weekend getting boxes of decorations down... She took inventory and then went to Target and spent a bunch of $ on more Christmas shite we dont really need... She's had her Pandora on the ipad on the same God Damn Christmas Station since early October... Playing it loudly at times... I'll never get it.

I refuse to begin decorating for Christmas before Thanksgiving. It really pissed me off this year to see Christmas tv commercials a week before Halloween - the earliest I've ever seen them. I enjoy decorating, outside and in, for Autumn & Thanksgiving, and consider it a very special and important holiday. It sickens me how commercialized Christmas has become, and seems to get worse each year, while Thanksgiving is completely skipped over. Damn, whatever happened to the Butterball commercials?
I'll begin decorating for Christmas the week after Thanksgiving, and the decorations will stay up until after New Year's.
