I think our decorations are going away tonight. I love Christmas and decorating, but when it's over I like to pack everything away quickly so that my house looks normal again.

Ladies Christmas season really starts on the 25th , I take my tree down on Jan. 6. What happened to the twelve days of Christmas ?? It seems a lot of people put their trees up early day after Thanksgiving and take it down so quickly.

Gina, we're not ignoring your comment. It's just that many of us did put our trees up early. Ours went up on Dec. 1, and it was a live tree. It just had to go. Even with my watering it faithfully, it was crispy critters.

Don't the 12 days of Christmas start 12 days before Christmas, kinda like a count down???

There is a name for the day you can take the tree down. Is that the 12th day?

I unplugged mine today and will put it back in the closet in it's little box soon.
I think it's lovely though that you carry out the tradition to the fullest.
