    Do you start right after Thanksgiving or later in December?

    We put up the lights on Thanksgiving day, only because we know we won't have any other time to do this. But I don't turn on the lights till about the 10th of Dec (don't want huge electric bills!). Decorating starts Thanksgiving Day also.

    Not really sure if I will even decorate this year. Right now I am not in the mood. I am too busy enjoying our beautiful 70 and 80 degree weather

    I'm trying to convince dh to put up the outdoor lights soon, since we've been having such great weather lately.

    Indoors, we'll decorate the end of November.

    We always put our tree up (fake tree) the day after Thanksgiving. I go shopping in the early morning and when I get back the tree is up and then the kids and I decorate and listen to Christmas music. I love the day after Thanksgiving!

    I usually start the weekend after Thanksgiving when we usually get our tree, but we will be in Indiana until the Tues. after Thanksgiving, so everything will have to wait until the following weekend. I have a ton of stuff I put out and I always dread doing it, but I love having it all up.
