Were starting this weekend! lol. I finally got DH to agree to do outside lights. He wouldnt do it because of how high our electric bill was, but since I got the bill down he agreed to put them up! LOL!

I don't do the outside, I live in an older house and I don't trust the electrical enough to do outside lights.  I light things up indoors though.  I really work at decorating my living room, and making it look very Christmasy!

Thats last year pic..we'll start decorating this weekend (if the rain lets up) going to set it up differently this year and have different things to add. My yard is a hill and I can only go so far before things are just too close to the sidewalk,so to avoid any problems I try keeping it all as close to the house as possible.

We usually do Thanksgiving weekend, but we are going to do it a bit early this year, because dh works that weekend unfortunately. So, were setting up some things this weekend, dh will hang the lights around the house and in the windows, and Ill be getting all of our fall stuff put away. Ill start the rest of the set up next week inside and finish up the outside. We usually continue to add things up until Christmas, lol...I didnt take any photos last year for some reason, so everyone will have to wait till I post the video to see it all, LOL.....

I normally decorate after Thanksgiving day. Last night brought out the indoor and outdoor decorations, organized & now have (7) stockings hanging on the mantel & wreath outside my door. I am hoping to get my tree this weekend, decorated and outside lights up so I can relax the day after Thanksgiving:)
