I dare you not to like it

I was out with Emily today, and she had to run to Michaels for some yarn. While there I checked out the artificial Christmas trees and subsequently purchased one that was on sale. Once back in my apartment I took a couple minutes to assemble said tree while listening to an N*SYNC Christmas.


Yes, I realize that it's only the middle of November, and yes, I know that usually decorations go up sometime around Thanksgiving, if not later. But today it snowed for the first time, and I made hot punch, and it was the perfect day for a Christmas tree. And yes in that blurry photo there are pinecones and berries set into the tree to make it cute and festive even without ornaments (which I will acquire sometime this week).

I dare you not to like this tree. You would have put it up too.

That tree is adorable. I love its little container! Was it pre-lit? Because that would tip the scales to make it so that I HAD to put it up.

That is the exact tree I've been wanting for the front porch! I love it and wholly endorse your early display.

I LOVE your tree! It's adorable. And, I love that you are in the Christmas spirit. Because our Thanksgiving is over, we just waited for Halloween to be over and decorated last week...all we have left are the lights outside. We usually wait until a blizzard and then watch Jason go up on the ladder in his snow suit. Good times!

It's ok, I put my nativities up today. I just couldn't wait anymore. Your tree is so cute! I love it! I can't wait to finish decorating my apartment for Christmas. I am glad to know I'm not the only one.

Your little tree is adorable! I say go with it if you're feeling Christmasy then it's the right time for you. The snow definitely helps set the mood!

That's it. I'm using you as proof for my roommates! They think it's too early for me to put my tree up! Silly roommates.
