It's still a bit early, but my family already has our Christmas tree up. A fresh one, too. My mom has a firm belief that Christmas trees only look good if they have three or less colors. So ours has: red, gold, and white.
So, do YOU have your Christmas tree up? Do you even put a Christmas tree up? Do you even celebrate Christmas?
No.
I don’t have one up, and I’m not putting one up.
I'm too lazy to celebrate Christmas with all the trees and the lights and the confetti and the crazytalk.
Your mother is several different kinds of wrong.
When I put my tree up in three weeks or so, you'll see what a real bitchin' Christmas tree looks like.
In the past my family would go with my grandparents and aunt and uncle to a tree farm that's out in the country near my city. We'd go on the first weekend of December and hunt and kill the perfect tree. :)
This year is the first year where my parents split, so I think my dad and I are just getting some crummy fake tree for the apartment. :cry:
I have a fiber optic tree. I don't have to string lights because i'm uber lazy.
If it wasn't for me and my dad both working and neither of us having time to be home to decorate, we would have had all the decorations up today or Yesterday. Before my parents got divorced we had a tradition to get a live tree on my dad's Birthday (Dec. 5th) but put all the decorations up the weekend of Thanksgiving, and this will be the first year in 8 years that we're going to get the tree on my dad's b-day again, plus It's been a while since I've had a real one! :heart:
I'm still debating whether or not I'll put up a tree this year. I'll have to do it myself, and the only people who'll see it is myself and my husband anyway.
Yeah, it would be a waste on my part since only my brother and myself would see it. Save the trees!
We put our tree up when its closer to Xmas.
Since I have parents who wake up at 4am every day, I just wake up one morning and it is there. Then I help my mom decorate it, and go back to sleep.
I am so over Christmas trees.
I find a normal tree far prettier than a Christmas tree. A Christmas tree is far too pointy to hug as well.
So no
I can't even remember the last time my family has had a Christmas tree. My parents tell me that when I was younger we had them but I'm not really buying that. Christmas for my family has always been a strictly religious thing, no trees involved.
Anyway, this year I wanna have a little miniature tree with my boyfriend. :)
I love Christmas trees! We're going next Saturday to pick up one. I hope we get a big tree. It's not Christmas without one. What else can you sit in front of on Christmas Eve? Where else can you put presents?
