Christmas trees should be put up on Xmas eve. O the 24th.
I was adamant about the X,as eve decorating even, when, for many years, I spent this holdiday in the US, where the trees are put up often many weeks before, and, of course after we came home.
Not weeks, not even days before, but on the 24th.
And we decorate it together.
Now, this last point came up against PJ's thesis, according to which, the "litle Jesus" is the one who brings the Xmas tree, but then we solved it with a bold compromise: The tree was brought to the balcony of our tenth floor flat, undecorated, by the "little Jesus", who is obviously way to busy at Xmas, so he brought the tree undecorated, and we had to decorate it together.
If you look back on the blog, we had a few adventures with the Xmas tree :-)
In the last couple of years we didn't had a tree, so no decorating it either, but if we would do so (and maybe there will be a time, when we'll do it again), we would do so on the 24th.
Ps: This is what it is, an opinion, and my opinion at that. I have nothing against those who think otherwise, everyone should decorate their tree when they want. Only I want to do it on the 24th.
