Chiaretta 0 Posted November 17, 2009 i usually decorated my house with my mom on the 8th of december, it was kind a tradition for my mum. but in this way we could "live" the decoration for no more than 2 weeks, since we usually go to the mountain after xmas! so this year i want to decoarate as soon as possible, this weekend possibly!!

Kiki Lolo 0 Posted November 20, 2009 Well, for my family, it's a bit later than what I've been reading so far...LOL! We usually go out into the forest, behind our house, the week-end before Christmas to pick out a tree. Then it sits out in the cold till Christmas Eve. That's when we bring it in to decorate it. The little kids do the bottom half of the tree and the two older ones do the top half. The Christmas decorations go down on the 6th of January (The Three Kings Day). We do put out the advent candles on the first of the four Sundays before Christmas and light one candle each Sunday after mass. The baking of the Christmas cookies start about a week before Christmas. I make about 2000. Around 5-6 different types. They are used as gifts for our neighbours and friends. I end up making another 1000 just before New Year's cause we run out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
