Last year's tree:

Nobody under 60 worked to put it up or decorate it.
Yes, YOU can keep the dream alive!:swingstocking:
And we did stockings too.

Your tree is beautiful! How long does it take to put up?

My wife has one like that plus 400 Santas and a Christmas Village. It takes about 4 days to set everything up and another 2 or 3 to take it all down. I have a shed full of Christmas stuff. I'm already dreading it.

Finally realized Santa lives here on the forum.
Such a good kind-hearted soul. No wonder he loves Christmas so much.

A week. (with teamwork)
Her OCD means that every possible place has something hanging in it before it is finished.
And that is only after they are moved around so no 2 that are the same are next to each other.
The MIL can work on it 8 hours a day, day after day, in a total trance.
And every single ornament is individually wrapped in bubble-wrap before being put back into the correctly labeled box when it is taken down.

We have now dropped below 90 days
89 days

Our tree last year , yep she has a lifetime collected Santa's village, can't see it .

Then just how much we enjoy Christmas.
Our 50th anniversary in Pigeon Forge TN.

Wife was in heaven.

I have a tree skirt like that, Phideaux.
That's a cute tree!
We had junipers growing in our yard years ago, we could snip off big branches and stick them in a big bucket for our tree. Smelled so good.

Dreaming of a simple christmas...

O.K. This is a groaner for sure, but what better place to put it. Bare with me.

Everybody knows that Santa had eight reindeer. Everybody knows that the ninth reindeer was Rudolph, but did you know who the tenth reindeer was?

Olive

Just like in the song "Olive the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names."

 

[phideaux]

We will be in the 70s then 60s before you know it...

Sounds like a good year to resume Christmas celebrations.Last time was in 1984 except the tree I put up for mama in 1988. But we would have to buy all those decorartions again,well maybe just a few. Also good thing we have web for music.
I may order online a few lights and ornaments.We have trees ,lol.
I can't wait for the spirit to come along when people act nicer.
