dave here,,,, michelle always wants to start decorating in mid november,,, i feel that is WAY too early,,, we were dairy farmers when i was growing up,, so time off was precious and far between,,, i always like decorating later in december and then leaving things up for a while in january,,, that was my mothers idea,, and i kind of got attached to it. I did give in this year and let michelle put it up early,,, it is fun to take a lifetimes worth of family heirloom ornaments and see if you can pack them all on one tree.. but we always do have a lot of fun getting the house all decked out for the holiday!!!
I guess Christmas for me is a time of memories of family members that are no longer with us,,, my dad,.,, my uncles that are no longer here on this earth,, but have the joy of spending Christmas in heaven.
I think of the less fortunate than me that don't have the things that i do,, of the members of the military that are protecting my freedom,, so that i can celebrate.
