Is it still Christmas?

Just wondering, but are there any houses in and around your neighborhood that still have their Christmas decorations up? Or is your house one of them?! :eek:

I know for a fact that there are a couple houses with their decorations still up. Geesh. Anyway, there is also a second part to this thread. And mine isn't one of them.

How long does it take your family (or you) to take down the Christmas decoration? Do you take it down immediately after Christmas, wait a week or so after Christmas, or whenever you feel like it?

Just so you know, my family took down the decorations a couple days after Christmas, so no sign of Christmas around my house. :D

I have no idea, I haven't noticed people with them up. We take ours down when we're arsed.

*looks out window*

Nope.

My people take down christmas paraphernalias on the eve of the Celebration for The Three King's, which is January 12th.
Or sometimes February 14.

My house has refused to acknowledge the end of christmas. I will take down my tree by March 24, the day I leave college.
I simply am very lazy.

funny enough, we took down our tree tonight

THE JACKEL

My parents have the habit of taking down decorations after Christmas dinner, which is kind of depressing, but this past year they waited at least a day, I think.

I haven't seen any leftovers yet, but less than a handful of houses were decorated in my neighborhood anyway, which is also kind of depressing.

Not any decorations outside, no. But we still do have our tree up. It's not down cause I have to do that and I'm a lazy bum.

All my Christmas junk was down a few days after Christmas, and so was everybody that lives around me... Because I kill those who keep them up and destroy their Christmas decorations.

=]

I don't believe so. I find it depressing when someone still has all this Christmas stuff up in January. Makes me want Christmas to come again. :-/

We took ours down a week after Christmas, but our neighbors never take down the lights. They stop turning them on, but they don't bother taking them down.

I once saw a house with Merry Christmas ingraved on thier mailbox
They obviously didnt think it through properly :p

We dont put up lights... So I guess we dont have to take them down either. How convienient :D

Why bother, just put it there till the next one comes. :bigsmile:

the decorations were out this year about two weeks after Christmas. it appears that the decorations were taken down earlier this year, which is quite a relief. my parents put them up, so it's up to them to take them down...

We do still have some houses that have some lights on, but Ukranian Christmas isn't celebrated until January 7th and it's only the 13th now. :)

I didn't decorate or put a tree up this year,except for some garland on my fireplace and that is still up. It's pretty with the lights on and I'm too lazy to take it down. :)

The only people I know of in my family to put up decorations are my grandparents. And I believe they hold a record for taking down their decorations after three straight years. It was Christmas for 1095 days give or take. I think they finally decided the weather worn Santa needed a break. xD
