When do you put your Christmas tree up? Wait until December at least, or any time after Thanksgiving? My wife is kinda ridiculous with Christmas (she listens to Christmas music starting November 1) so ours goes up right after Thanksgiving.

I don't put one up.

Also, I couldn't open the thread at all until I logged in.

Ahh, thought I had fixed that issue. Thanks for the heads up, I'll have that fixed at some point today.

Ok, the thread thing is fixed now.

So no tree. How about a Festivus Pole?

Maybe I'll get one of those Charlie Brown trees.

I usually put mine up somewhere between the weekend after Thanksgiving and the next one after that. No set date. Just whenever I have the time. Hoping to do it tomorrow.

I put ours up tonight. The rest of the Christmas decorations have been up since Thanksgiving Day, because I worked and my wife was off.

The Muffy tree is up before Thanksgiving, the family room tree goes up after Thanksgiving and the formal living room tree is not going up this year... Three trees is to much now.

Yes, there is an issue I'm trying to fix but haven't found a good way yet. Apologies.

My fake Christmas tree is somewhere in the garage.   Unfortunately the effort necessary to find it, along with setting it up is colossal.    I'm sure it won't happen.

No Christmas tree for us this year. Still in the transition to NKY.

Living in boxes sucks.

Usually about 2 to 2 1/2weeks prior to Christmas.  Always like to thoroughly enjoy the entire Thanksgiving weekend before embarking on the Christmas season.

We got ours up on Sunday. Haven't been able to have one the past 2 years because of the cats. Never bothered it until Christmas 2015 and we didn't even try one last year. We got a pencil style tree this year and so far so good.

I have to put ours in a room that's off limits to the cats. Years ago they broke their "record" and took the tree down in 15 minutes. Came crashing down on me and my laptop.

Haha we woke up one morning and one then had obviously been laying inside close to the trunk. All the branches were bent and pointing down to the ground. There was no way to fix it. Luckily, they don't bother the ornaments too much.
