I know this is a question that many of you will gasp when you read...but here goes...
Should I decorate for Christmas this year?
I know! ANYONE that knows me is probably sprinting out of their house and running to me with a thermometer in hand...worried sick that I must, MUST be dying. It's crazy, I know, but I'm in a bit of a pickle trying to figure out whether or not I should. Let me start by saying that I bought beautiful new decorations this year. Since this is my first Christmas in the new place, my previous color scheme would not do, so I went with a vintage brown/antique gold/pearl color scheme and I do think it will turn out beautifully...IF I do it. You see, Thanksgiving came a week late this year, and I leave the week before Christmas for Park City, so at this point if I put up the tree, I'll only get 2.5 weeks out of it. I know that's 2.5 weeks...but I just can't decide if it's worth it. Plus, real trees are expensive for only 2.5 weeks! What to do, what to do...
On a separate note, I have been quite the travel agent tonight!! I booked 2 hotels and, if I do say so, got some AMAZING deals! I will be staying in the Courtyard Marriott for a short night before I fly out to Utah (rooms start at $199, I got mine for $57!), and the Hyatt Regency in downtown Denver on my way home (going to enjoy a night on the town with my good friend Kayla!!) - also purchased that for a ridiculously cheap price! Now I just have to book 2 nights in Chicago for New Year's and I am done booking hotels for a while! Hopefully there will be some good deals lurking out there for those nights as well.
16 days and I'll be skiing to my heart's content! Can't wait!

You don't have to put up a tree, but you should at least put some winter decorations out that could last through mid-January. Lights, pinecones, etc. Not that you are using pinecones, but you understand what I am trying to say.
if it weren't for my kids i would screw the christmas decorating this year....time is flying and we won't even be here for the holiday....but i just know my daughter will bring it up in 20 years "the year we didn't have a tree".......lol
