Today’s Topic: How long do you keep your Christmas Tree up? (Written By – Ashley Marsh)

Hello Hello!

So this is a tricky one. I personally am a neat freak and I need that tree gone asap. The trouble…I have to actually put it away! I am the person that wants that tree up a week before Thanksgiving (I would like to note that this a point of contention in our home as Mr. Troy does not agree and he has successfully talked our boys into siding with him – but I digress)

The Christmas Tree is a a symbol of joy and happiness. I love the lights and reminiscing over each ornament as we put it up is a wonderful family tradition. That is until Christmas if over and I have to keep looking at the needles all over the floor (umm I still don’t get this as our tree is fake) the tiny bits of paper that just keep reappearing underneath the tree and the complete and utter anxiety I get over all the knick-knacks everywhere. Let me just add that I am the one that bought the knick-knacks and I am the one that puts them out every…single…year.

Ok so now I am ready to put it all away. (cue the dramatic insta story I posted last week) Sigh – Argh – OMG! After the intial drama it takes about an hour to get it all tucked away for the year and then comes the OHMMM

Clean – Decluttered – Fresh Start to the New Year!!!!

Ok now that you all know my personal process; I would love to hear when you all put your tree away and why. How many trees do you have? When do you put them up? And…Go!

Have a great Day!!
