I took mine down the first week of January. Everyone pitched in and it took about a half hour. There are people in my complex that still have decorations up.

Me!  We normally take it down on January 6th (Little Christmas/Epiphany) but this year it just hasn't gotten done. We keep talking about it, but not doing it. The kids love looking at the lights, and they're not pulling all the ornaments off like they did last year, so there's no motivation there either.

One of my trees never came down last year. Both are still up and probably won't come down until April.

I took our tree and things down last weekend in the house. It is to cold to take the outside decorations down.
Katie you have easter stuff up already. You are way ahead of me.

I put all the Christmas decorations up in the attic last weekend, but the bare tree was still sitting in the living room until today. My dh finally got that taken down this afternoon. I thought it was funny to find this post right after he took it down, lol.

I took mine down on the 27th and that was late for me! I usually do it the 26th....DH took the outside stuff down new years weekend! My house still looks empty, but I was glad to have everything put away...I love christmas, but i've had my things up since mid November.

We leave ours up (undecorated, of course) all year. Its one of the tall skinny artificial trees that look natural and for some reason, it looks great in our front room in the corner tucked behind the two couches. Apparently (according to guests) it gives our house a "rustic, Colorado look". No complaints here, since I am NOT an interior decorator by any means, so anything in our house looks good. :-)
On the plus side, "Christmas decorating" involves simply plugging in the tree.

The tree and outside decorations are down. DH took down the stockings today because he got tired of looking at them  Everything is still out. I just haven't been in the mood to put everything back up.

yup...guilty as charged...most of the decorations have been taken off and put away, but there are still some on it. I keep telling myself that it has to be taken down soon, but alas, there it still stands.
