It's my sons birthday on the 18th and ever since he was small we've always put the decorations up on the 19th so he has his day first. Always used to put them up through the night when the kids were little so they woke up in the morning to a surprise.

My daughters birthday is the 18th Dec too, so decs will be going up on the night of the 18th when the kids have gone to bed.

Aww! I seem to remember me and the boyfriend doing that on our first Christmas last year.

I shall put up a few lights and things in the bedroom on December 1st, but I don't think we'll put up the tree and main decorations until December 11 weekend. Cannot waaaaaait.

They're already down from the loft, and sitting in a big pile in the corner, taunting me.

i remember my first crimbo with my hubby.

we had got engaged in the september, bought a flat and moved in , in the nov. so swept along, by first xmas together, first home together, planning a wedding etc. didn't even think about a tree. left it till xmas eve, and someone locally was selling a 3ft tree with 20 lights, lol.

oh how times have changed now a 7ft tree with 400 lights,lol 3 kids and 3 cats etc .

but i remember sitting in lounge with just the xmas lights on, being together in our first home. i didn't care how small the tree was it was perfect. i'll always treasure those memories.
