00:00This is very controversial, so answer carefully.
00:03Do you decorate for Christmas before or after Thanksgiving?
00:06It is very controversial.
00:13I would decorate in July if I could.
00:16Same.
00:17I love Christmas.
00:18Our house is, my wife is a little more like,
00:21give the respect that Thanksgiving needs.
00:25But if it was up to me, the tree would go up November 1st.
00:29I feel like what used to be acceptable the day after Thanksgiving
00:32has become acceptable after Halloween.
00:34I decorate for Halloween in August,
00:36and I decorate for Christmas right after Halloween.
00:39I brought the trees down already.
00:41We're probably going to make the girls wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate.
00:44So they're sitting there like semi-naked with just lights on them right now.
00:47But I like the feel of a tree in the house.
00:50As long as the ghosts and the witches are down,
00:53I feel like it's acceptable to put a tree up.
00:56Just don't mix them.
00:57Yeah, no, no, no, that would be a little bit unique, yeah.
01:00Nothing with Santas yet, but like the lights and like the holiday vibes.
01:04Right.
01:04Santa comes after Thanksgiving.
01:06He eases into it.
01:07Yeah, we're gone so much.
01:08So for me, I just calculate how many days I'm actually going to get to be home with my decorations.
01:12And I tell my neighbors, I don't care.
01:15Oh, the tree is up.
01:16The tree's been up.
01:16Okay, I figured.
01:18I feel like I could have told him.
01:20Yeah.
01:22Not like that wasn't entirely the plan, but the tree has been up.
01:25He came home and was like, wait, wait, wait, what happened?
01:28The holiday spirit gets you.
01:29What are we doing?
01:30It went like Halloween.
01:31And he's like, why is the tree up?
01:33I'm like, oh my gosh, who did that?
01:34Do you decorate for Christmas before or after Thanksgiving?
01:38So lately I have been.
01:39I did this time because I'm going to be gone so much.
01:42We have a Christmas tour.
01:42We're going to be in New York for the parade.
01:45So I, yes, I did decorate.
01:47You know, you've got to have it up as long as you can, I think.
01:49You do?
01:50Directly after Thanksgiving.
01:51Oh, you're the first to say that.
01:52Okay, you're the first.
01:53Yes, you are finally breaking the mold.
01:55Everyone's doing before.
01:56Yeah, I mean, I'm fine with it.
01:58You know, I don't have any problem with Christmas music going on, but I'm just kind of lazy.
02:03So, yeah, decorations are not, yeah, it's hard for me to prioritize decorations.
02:08But, yeah, I don't know.
02:10It kind of varies.
02:11Okay.
02:11Yeah.
02:12Period.
02:12Do you decorate before or after Thanksgiving?
02:14I like to have my Thanksgiving, y'all.
02:17I think Thanksgiving is important.
02:19Right.
02:20I like to keep the pumpkins out.
02:22I like a turkey to, you know, like little salt and pepper shakers.
02:27I like to have that out for my grandbabies.
02:29And then after Thanksgiving, I'll put a tree up.
02:32Oh, so you do Thanksgiving decor.
02:34I like decor for Thanksgiving.
02:36Okay.
02:36I do.
02:37And I think we need to have more attention to Thanksgiving and be thankful.
02:42Do you host?
02:43Do you host Thanksgiving?
