Christmas - already?

I went to Ace Hardware today (super exciting, I know you're jealous). 

They had Christmas decorations and Christmas Tree Stands on display. It isn't even close to Thanksgiving yet! 
I haven't even made any Autumn wreaths (okay, I'm a teensy bit behind schedule on this one). Seriously though, can we please wait a couple more weeks? I can't keep up! 




I am guilty of starting my Christmas shopping early, mostly because I love buying gifts, not because it is appropriate to shop this early. 

When do you think Christmas celebrations should start? Do you listen to Christmas Carols year-round?

Do you have any fun gift ideas this year? I'm thinking of starting a weekly series of gift ideas (after Thanksgiving of course). We will see!

  1. I think it should start the last week in November, I love Christmas but loathe the depression of January.

  2. January absolutely depresses me, but February attacks my soul with its dreary gray.

  3. Girl, I could go on forever about this. (I actually have a blog post planned about it for next week!).

    I used to work in retail. We started decorating trees the end of AUGUST. AUGUST! Terrible. Every holiday deserves its time. That includes Thanksgiving! I think buying presents early is fine but decorating and listening to Christmas music before Black Friday? That's a big no in my book!

    Wooh. End rant! 8)
