Default Christmas tree

I know that most of you probably have put your Christmas trees up right after TG, but I just finished decorating mine. I put up 2 trees each year since I have a 2 story home and our family room is up stairs. I put the big 7 1/2 feet in the formal living room along with the bulk of my decorations and then I have a 4 foot tree that I put upstairs so that we can enjoy it when we spend time as a family. So, how about the rest of you? What kind of tree do you have? How many do you decorate? Do you like to decorate?

We haven't put ours up yet and won't be for a few more weeks. And one tree is enough for us lol.

Hey Laura.... Mines been up since the 17th cause people seem to start right after the Santa Clause Parade and my neibour started it with lights out side so a warm day last week was my opportunity and I have an out doors tree that I put light on and then have an enclosed porch so I have a decorated one there .... small. Am going to my brother's on the Dec. 22nd so still want to decorate here... even if it's just me and the cats. Actually I have the neibours.in one night.

I have to put the tree in the porch area cause when I had it in the house the cats pull it down.... Too many times I would hear this crashing noise in the middle of the night and sure enough the tree was down.

Ours came out of a box with the lights already on it. It is about three and a half feet tall and mostly got put up because of my grandson.

So far, no more broken ornaments on the floor, and I haven't seen a cat go near it. If you want, I'll get the name brand for you so you can bring your tree back inside.
