This weekend my in-laws brought me my Christmas tree!
I have officially upgraded from a 4.5 foot tree to a 7.5 foot tree, wahoo.
The tree was looking awfully lonely just sitting in the box, I couldn’t help myself.
So, I decided I would ONLY put it together.
Once is was up, my urge to put the lights on was too strong.
And then I needed to take an inventory of my decorations, so I thought I would put 50% of them on, logical right?
Before I knew it my tree was 75% decorated. Yes, I need help.
I did save the rest of the decorations to up as a family.
I made a cute little video of our festivities.
I got this idea from YHL, expect theirs is way cooler 🙂

I need to buy a couple more decorations to finish it off but it is almost there.
And even though I know it is super early, I can’t help but smile every time I look at it.
There is something so magical about a Christmas tree.
Are you fighting the urge to get your tree up?
Or am I the only crazy one?
Ah super cute video! I haven’t put up my tree yet but I’m really excited about this mini one I am doing in my kitchen (full of cooking things) and I’m half tempted to get that up this week.
Such a cute family!
Love your tree. Gorgeous! I can’t wait to put mine up – you definately aren’t the only one.

Love love love your video!!! And I love your tree. I am totally fighting the urge…
Very cute! I love the music too – I am already thinking about a tree and buying a new one or real one but it is a TAD early! Not even Thanksgiving, so I think I’ll wait!! ;-0
Too funny, yes, a bit early but who cares!! Enjoy! Janell
Early, but I love it! I’ll bust out all of my stuff right after Tgiving.
We always get a real tree so we can’t put ours up quite yet – but our visit to the tree farm is scheduled for Nov 26/27 … won’t be long now!
And I thought I was the only one getting a Christmas tree up this early! We are actually getting our today! ..i’m so glad i won’t be the only one…great video and music by the way.
the first laugh of the week! loved your video! and yes.. I am dying to arrange mine.. waiting for thanksgiving..
I won’t be putting up a tree for a couple of weeks, but I say “go for it”! Great video!!
I totally put up my little tree this weekend, too! I just didn’t make such a cute video to go along with it 🙂

Haha…I love it! I would definitely be doing the same thing, I love to get stuff done, except we are getting a real one again this year and in AZ that means I have to wait too long! Anyway…looks like fun!
Danielle, I am totally laughing because my post on my blog today is also about putting up my tree this weekend! We always put our tree up before Thanksgiving! I just love Christmas! Super fun video!

We won’t be getting ours up til after Thanksgiving. But, ONLY because we have a tradition to go cut one down in the mountains with some of our best friends. Considering I am already listening to Christmas carols, I think this tradition is the only thing keeping me from enjoying mine right now!
I’m fully in the crazy boat with you! I don’t have a tree yet, but I can’t wait to put my decorations up…just have to convince the husband first haha
What a cute video! I would love to have mine up because I feel like the season is too short but we too have a tradition to go cut ours down with family friends right after Thanksgiving! I have busted out some Christmas CDs and my daughter begged me for eggnog!
I’ve been wanting to put mine up all month! My husband said not until the day after Thanksgiving but I think he is about to give in! YAY! Christmas tree might be up sometime this week!
I put two of ours up this weekend. The third is on it’s way soon!!!
We are actually deciding if we are even going to have a tree this year…I am leaving early to go visit family for x-mas and my husband doesn’t see the need to buy a tree for like 10 days. But, If I put ours up early like you…there will still be time to enjoy it!
Love your video and I’m curious to see all of your cute ornaments up close! (I need ideas 🙂
Such a cute video! Totally got me in the mood! Ours will go up on Thanksgiving Day! Have a great week!!
omg so cute! love the dance at the end! and my fav music for christmas 😀
LOVE the video! I put up my “little” tree tonight and started on my Christmas mantle:)
Aw, you guys put a big smile on my face, you are too cute!! I’m patiently waiting only because I’m hosting Thanksgiving!
wow thats a big tree Danielle.
That is the cutest video ever! What a precious family. I have put up one of my trees already (I have two), so you’re not alone. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, so we might as well enjoy it as long as possible!!
OMG, precious. Y’all are adorable. Watching you do that little dance at the end proves to me that we could be great friends 🙂
Adorbs! I started cleaning out my Christmas decor yesterday—- it’s only a matter of time now. 😉
Too cute! Never too early to get xmas decor up!
Loved the video! Totally puts you on the x-mas spirit, can’t wait for thanksgiving to put up my tree!
I’ve started putting up our Christmas decorations… I feel crazy, like I have to make excuses to get them up, so I totally laughed at your post today! Love it. Embrace the Christmas!
