When do you take down tree?

[DogsRule]

I'm taking mine down today, it takes up a lot of room. I'm never one to leave it up for months after Christmas.

[kuietgrl (got lost)]

I usually leave it up until January...but I'm feeling a little bah humbug-ish so it's coming down right now.

[BrAt]

After the new year. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

[blueeyedgirl]

I take mine down anywhere between the 26th to the 30th.

[Intangible]

Mine has been up since Dec. 1, so it is coming down tomorrow. I am tired of looking at it. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

[AngelOnHigh]

I would love to take mine down today... but I think my husband would KILL me... so I will leave it up maybe until the weekend then down it goes!

[katste11]

Mine comes down anytime after January 1st. It's not in the way at all and it looks so purdy.

[Evangeline]

first week of january whenever I have time.

I Love Love Love mine, and it's not in the way so I'm in no hurry.

It does look a little empty without presents under it now though.

[SusyQ]

Well if I go away for New Years its coming down before if I don't go away it'll be after New Years. Still not sure yet the girls dad wants too stay here and my daughter wants me there. OH THE HUMANITY LOL!

[General Lee]

mine is down

[KRP]

Normally I leave mine up until after New Years but after having my son, my nephew and 2 of his cousin's play with his new kitchen set that we bought him that was sitting not too far from the tree and they kept running into it.... it came down last night after we put them to bed.

We took the rest of the decorations down today while they were down for a nap.

[DarkAssassin]

My tree came down yesterday morning about an hour after all the present where opened. I have a 16.5 month old that WOULD NOT STOP play with the tree and a cat that would try to play with everything that was on the tree. I couldn't wait to take it down.... So ya i had mine down and put away by 10 am Christmas day.

[GRUMPY]

I never put one up as it confuses the dog. lol

[Kittie]

With his arthritis?

[Babzz]

I am ready to take mine down. maybe tommorrow

[heintzman]

I didn't get mine up until four days before Christmas, so i'm good until at least February~~~!!!!

Thats one of the joys of having a geriatric dog, mind you she has been a great one so I'll help her out in her old age.

[Macs II]

a bullet would take care of any problems a dog is having

[heintzman]

I thought about that, too. My 200 lbs Dane is scared of the lights on the tree. He spent the last 2 weeks sleeping in our hallway and pacing around whining.

My tree came down yesterday afternoon. There is not one shred of evidence Christmas ever happened in my house...other than the stacks of toys in every corner /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/whistle.gif

[sniderscott2]

i didnt put up a tree. bah humbug.

[LIKETOWIN]

mine is coming down sat.

[goodasgold]

Mine will come down probably my next weekend. Unless I get really bored and annoyed at it. There are still unwrapped gifts under the tree, so it can't go down yet.

[Maryms]

Mine stays up all year long, it is planted outside.

[Peety]

[cybolynx]

[crazymamma]

[NativeMomma]

[AngelOnHigh]

I haven't been sick in years, no colds ,no flu no nothing...knock on wood.

[1337]

I love christmas, but i hate the tree. My new kitten loves it, and OWNS it.

I took it down as soon as the last present was opened!

[AngelOnHigh]

lol T-pot... gotta love kittens... lol.

[geogett]

[Cher]

[tippikitty]

"When do you take down tree?"

As soon as someone comes over and does it for me. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

[Chaotic Chick]

I took mine down last December.

[tippikitty]

/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif

[Peety]

I am glad I put everthing away, I think I will leave the blow-up snowman and wreaths out.

[mandala]

took mine down this morning. my husband pouted for an hour when he got home and everything was put away. lol

[katste11]

The house looks so bare after you take everything down..its depressing! So far so good for us with regards to the pets leaving the tree alone *knocks on wood* Only two small incidences..one of the Danes got too close with their tail wagging and swiped everything off that part of the tree lol and Penny grabbed one bulb but when it hit the floor it scared her and she hasn't touched the tree since.

How can that be when everyone always says how their animals don't run freely in the house /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif .....just proofs what I've seen is right

I never said that my pooches don't have free run of the house...the exact opposite is true actually...and I wouldn't have it any other way. /ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

and I'm pretty sure that goes for other pet owners too ..what I've seen anyway. They can all say otherwise here but I know better.

[mandala]

if you own a pet, where else would it be but in your house??
unless it's a horse or something..lol
