It's not as if I won't go to Thanksgiving dinner because my tree is up! I just count the tree as another thing to be thankful for! Check Out These Awesome Christmas Tree Decorations to Make Your Tree Extra Special This Year! I guess it all comes down to #5….having my Christmas tree up makes me happy, so why not do it!! For those of you who say that I am discounting Thanksgiving….I say that I am not! I enjoy Thanksgiving….I love spending the month of November focusing on my blessings.

The bottom line is that putting my tree up before Thanksgiving just MAKES me happy……so why not! It isn't a tradition that hurts anyone…so why not just bring a little more joy and happiness into the season by having longer to enjoy it! I don't always get gifts wrapped really early, but some years I do! It is so nice to just slide them under the tree instead of stacking the gifts in the corner! I know people who don't put their tree up until well into December…where do they put the gifts? 🙂 It is nice to have a place to put gifts as I get them wrapped. I love to sit and look at the lights on the tree in the evenings….so the more evenings I have to enjoy the lights the happier I am! I can sit and look at twinkling lights and just be filled with joy! It is my happy place for sure! There is somewhere to put the gifts I love to sit and look at the lights on the tree

I actually have to work hard the last few days before Christmas to not get SAD that it is almost over! I am just weird like that, lol! My husband has to remind me not to waste my last few days of the season by thinking about it being over!

I just love Christmas and want to stretch it out for as long as I can. I sometimes put up more than one tree around the house and when you add in other Christmas decor…it is a lot of work!! I want to have extra time to enjoy it before I go to all the work to take it down. I spend a lot of time decorating my tree.
