Have you started putting out any Christmas decorations yet? Have you seen anyone in your town with Christmas decorations out yet? Has your town started putting up their Christmas decorations yet?

I don't put any out until after Thanksgiving. If we get a warm day on a weekend towards the end of the month we'll do the outside ones then to avoid doing it when it's freezing/snowing.

I have no idea if the village has done any yet. I only left the house this week to go to Nathan's class on Tuesday and that was a few towns the other direction from the main part of town (we live on the far side of it).

I couldn't believe it when I was driving down the street, looked up and saw the decorations on the poles. I guess it's a good thing they got them up when it was nice, so they don't have to do it when it's cold. They don't have any of the decorations up on the Courthouse lawn yet, though.

We won't do any Christmas decorating until after Thanksgiving, probably the weekend after Thanksgiving. We don't do any outside decorating, but if we did, we'd probably do it this weekend since it's supposed to be nice.

I've seen 1 house that had about 6 of those big inflatable Christmas statue thingys in their yard, and another house was putting up their lights.

The malls have started to put up their Christmas decorations (just like the stores). I don't go downtown so I don't know about the city. We do not put our decorations out until after T-Day and none of our neighbors do either.

We don't usually start anything until after Thanksgiving. I haven't seen any decorations pop up yet around town, but I'm glad. The stores and malls make me want to vomit since they've been decorated since at least 2 weeks before Halloween.
