  1. We are not hosting Thanksgiving – so I am putting my Christmas tree up between Sunday & Monday prior to Thanksgiving. 🙂

  3. So excited I just put the tree up and decorated the house. It looks so festive. I just love this time of year!

  4. I’m hoping to put our tree up tomorrow or next weekend. I’m hoping I can get all the indoor stuff done during tomorrow’s big snow storm lol

  5. I’m a volunteer with Operation Christmas Child so I am thinking and talking about Christmas all year. By the time November hits, I’m ready for the tree. But I waited until a week before Thanksgiving

  6. no kids in the family, so we don’t put one up. but I am thinking of getting a smaller table type one and think my cats would enjoy having a real mini tree in the house!

  7. Normally it’s after thanksgiving but we are going on vacation this week and wanted to enjoy it longer this year so we put it up on November 11th!

  8. We put our tree up mid-December. We get a live one and I don’t want it to die by December 20 if we put it up too soon! I also do not believe in decorating before Advemt, although that starts today. So I do little by little. Next weekend I’ll put up all the non-tree decorations.

  9. We always get our up the weekend after Thanksgiving. I got decorations out including the tree and ornaments. It will officially go up tomorrow, 12/1 🙂

  10. Ours is going up tomorrow. My husband had to work this weekend so he wasn’t able to pull everything down from the attic.

  11. Ours is usually up right after thanksgiving, this year is different tho, our family is now separated so this holiday doesn’t seem right.

  12. Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday because of all the beautiful decorations. We love our decorations so much that we put them up the day after we take down the Halloween decorations. I just don’t feel that one month is long enough to enjoy them.

  13. We put our tree up the week after Thanksgiving. We do not have a specific day, depends where it fits in that week. We wait for the day that we are all available to help decorate it. I miss our real tree, we have a pre lite artificial

  14. We went out today and bought a new one! It’s up and we’re hanging ornaments, baking cookies and praying that our Great Dane doesn’t mess with any of the Christmas decor!

  15. We put up the tree last weekend (despite the kids’ protest that it wasn’t even Thanksgiving yet). Usually we wait until the weekend after Thanksgiving but we have so much going on we needed to get to it!

  16. Usually we put our tree up after thanksgiving. This year we put it up the week before because our schedules are crazy the next few weeks.

  17. We chop down our tree the day after Thanksgiving every year. Then we spend the next few days getting lights and decorations put in it.

  18. The Christmas tree will go up this Tuesday. I normally put it up the day after thanksgiving but I have to wait for my daughter this year.

  19. We always put our tree up on the weekend after Thanksgiving. And it ends up staying up until March when I finally get tired of looking at it. My husband would keep it up year round if he could, lol!

  20. We put up a tiny tree with tiny ornaments — and let the presents overwhelm it. Sure it’s different, but it’s also easy! And usually put it up a week before Christmas.

  21. The Christmas tree always goes up the day after Thanksgiving. Maybe, just maybe a day or two before if I’m feeling spontaneous! 🎄

    • We would normally put ours up on black Friday, but since we are moving within a week or two we will wait to get one after we move.

  22. When I can get help getting it down. Its on rafters in the garage and heavy so it requires two people. Hopefully tomorrow though!

  23. Our tradition is to cut down the tree the day after Thanksgiving. We bring it right into the house and over next few days get all the lights and decorations on it. 🎄

  24. Tradition is to cut down our tree the day after Thanksgiving ! We spend the next few days getting the lights and decorations on it.

  25. Put out our Christmas tree yesterday, and it is still not done decorating it cos this mama is too tired and too heavy carrying this baby in my tummy😄 but my toddler would love to see our Christmas tree up. So help me God, trying to finish this.

  26. Usually we put ours up about 2 weeks before Christmas but this year I might be skipping the tree completely because we got a new cat and she gets into everything and it wouldn’t last 5 minutes up with het

  27. I think when a person in Christmas 🎄 mood if you feel like putting up early do it if you feel like putting it after Thanksgiving than do so. I do what makes me happy. I love Christmas so much. My cousin always joke with me I know the day you get married you’re going to have Christmas wedding lol.

  28. We usually put our tree up after our Thanksgiving meal, but this year, we put it up on Halloween night, in honor of my Grandma who passed away in August. It was always her tradition to put it up on Halloween!

  29. My last tradition left from childhood – we put the tree up on Christmas Eve – then it stays up for the 12 days of christmas

  30. I’m not sure if we will get ours tomorrow or next weekend. We go cut our tree down so it just depends on the weather.

  31. My husband had spinal surgery this year so sadly ☹️ I am not sure I will be able to get mine up. But I do love – love Christmas decorating !

  32. My husband started on Wednesday and is finishing decorating the tree today. I get the easy part and put out the menorahs

  33. We went to put our tree up today only to discover that it does not fit with our ceilings since we moved this year. So I will be on the lookout to purchase a new tree very soon!

  34. Our Christmas tree 🎄 will probably get up a week or two before Christmas. I have to wait for my husband as he travels for business and just left this morning.

  35. We will be putting our tree up this weekend. I like to get through Thanksgiving before I start with Christmas. The holidays seem so rushed.

  36. Well ‘ I wanted to bring my tree up last night but things have changed. I also have much to do before putting my tree
    together. First is finishing up my windows, I made homemade washable white chalk paint and made snowflakes all over my windows LOLL love it. Second, I have to change my curtains, I have a set I use for Christmas , have used them for over 20 yrs, those have to be put up first before I can put my tree together and just a few smaller details to get done . Either way’ I am really hoping maybe Sunday at least bringing up the tree from the basement, and doing some cleaning and stuff LOL .

    • We put our Christmas tree up usually as soon after Thanksgiving as the children are all available to do so because we love having the decorations up and That Christmas Feeling plus being together as a family is wonderful

  37. I usually don’t put up a tree anymore but My daughter and 3 grandkids moved in with me a month ago. We are in the process of getting everything for the tree. Next weekend we are going to bake and decorate cookies and put up the Christmas Tree. Yaaaay!

  38. Normally this weekend but we have 2 new kittens 😳 soooooo with that being said it might be closer to Christmas. With homemade ornaments so my good ones don’t get broken.

  39. Typically we do ours today(or day after Thanksgiving), go to a Christmas tree farm and cut down a tree. But our sons, ages 20, 18 both work today at Target/Cabelas, so we can’t do it today, so we hope to tackle it tomorrow if they get off early enough! Fingers crossed!!!

  40. WE will put our tree up at some point this weekend. The weather is supposed to be really nice so I will put up the outdoor decorations and my wife and kids will work on the inside.

  41. Usually it’s around Thanksgiving, however, my husband got a puppy and he’s quite the trouble maker. I don’t think there will be a tree this year unless we can figure out how to keep the two separate. 🤦🏽‍♀️
