Christmas Decorations

Who puts up lots of Christmas decorations and who is on the bah humbug side. I more with the bah humbug, but I did decorate a small tree outside this year and put up two of those white angel thingys with lights because the boss bought them last year and so to keep her happy.

Love Christmas, but I'm not too into decorating. Do you go whole hog?

The neighbors were out this weekend. I used to have a Nativity Scene for the front yard and do lights. Haven't for years though. Guess I'm a baugh humbug guy these days.

I do the lights reluctantly, and I hate the job of doing it, but I got to say.. after a white fluffy snow, it sure does pay off the hard work. Wife does the inside of the house.

Doesn't have lights anymore plus i have no outside outlets and since i have 4 cats having a tree would not be a great idea.

We, meaning me and the wife do more than average. Keep the better half happy as to be able to work on the truck this winter. Lots of plans but short on time.

Well if she wants to make one, why doesn't she? Maybe she is like mine and what she really meant is she wants you to make one for her. I've been getting that on the deer in some folks yard that are made out of trees and branches for antlers. I'll get around to it one of these years.
