When do u usually put up your x-mas tree?
Moderator: S2k Moderators
Growing up in New Jersey and then living in Michigan we always put it up the weekend before Thanksgiving, because we always had a houseful. Now that we live in Florida, I usually put it up either the weekend right after thanksgiving or the following weekend. The real trees don't seem to last as long here. Up north we used to go cut them down.

Around Thanksgiving, ususally the day after, we put it up and it must come down on New Years Day. My mama has this tradition or rule or phobia whatever that it has to come down on New Years Day. You had better feel good at 7AM on New Years Day, party or no party, to take down all the decorations.

Mama, do you have the PVC pipe slit so it fits around the stalk?? Now I can send you some real snow from up here if you need it??
These crepe myrtles have 5 thin stalks so i anchor it in the middle of them. I will take some snow, that'd be real nice!
