    My tree is away but I still have all the snowmen out that don't have something to do with Christmas! So about half of my 'Christmas' decorations are still up!

    I still have my snowflake lights & green garland on the mantle. I will keep those up until Blessing of the Plow; then I will take them down.

    Everything is packed, organized, labeled and ready for next year 'cept the two bare Christmas trees.. The 4ft in the foyer still has its tree skirt- whoops, my bad.. and the big tree still has the angel on top, I cant reach it.. Hubby has to take them down and box them up, however Just like the trash every Monday he forgets.. So now its just a waiting game..

    I leave my town up on my mantel until sometime in Feb. because it is wintery, not just Christmasy. I also have a winter wonder land (thats what I call it) on my Hoosier that I leave up until I take down my town. I have one Christmas tree in a guest bedroom that I keep up all year, and I have a tree in my sewing room that I redecorate each month. I love Christmas, I hate foe it to end.

    I still have all my Christmas decorations up. We love having the tree lit in the living room in the evening. Many years I have left everything displayed through February.
    I don't see a thing wrong with it. The gals I work with think I am crazy!!

    Everything is down, because we never put it up. Makes it a lot easier. We went to see my daughter on Christmas so it just didn't seem necessary this year.

    Mine are basicly down but still in boxes and bags or just around -- maybe this afternoon someone will put them in the attic -- I thought that having the stuff in the way might get it up sooner but we just walk around it -- June is the latest that the stuff hung around downstairs -- lol

    Every time DH sits down to watch tv, he spies one more. But I think we have them all now. But he still has lights outside- the snow and ice have 4 sets of net lights frozen to the small boxwoods and the ground out front. More snow is on the way- we're hoping to bring the Christmas lights in by Easter!
