Katy: Can we put up Christmas decorations today? Laura: Oof. Maybe? I'm worn out from all the Thanksgiving cooking. Katy: I'll drag the boxes up! And detangle the lights! Adam: Whoa, whoa. It's too early for that. Katy: It's never too early for the Christmas spirit! Adam: But I'm not ready to take my Thanksgiving decorations down yet. Katy: Dad. Little mashed potato sculptures of turkeys aren't decorations. Adam: Shh. You'll hurt Mr. Gobbleneck's feelings. Laura: Sigh. Ordering pizza next year.

For Thanksgiving, our store was selling Turkey shaped butter sculptures about that size for $3.99
.
For Christmas, they’re shaped like little Christmas Trees

Adam should’ve talked to Dagwood about Thanksgiving decorations.

We leave our lights up all year, but only turn them on on the third Sunday in Advent. They stay lit until Epiphany.

Poor Laura. She’s got 4 children on her hands. (Hey, don’t forget about Baby Nick!)

I’m happy that my kids are older now, they put up the tree on their own, I don’t have any outdoor decorations yet but maybe I’ll get something simple.

I would have thought edible decorations only lasted until Adam got hungry again.

As Christmas is slowly enveloping Halloween in freaking October, yes, it is always too early for Christmas “spirit.” Do we really need one holiday to span an entire quarter of the year? After years of this, everyone has grown tired of the Christmas carols, especially by Christmas time. When it finally comes, it’s like the election: everyone just wants it to be over already. A nice 12 days of Christmas would be special, I’m even willing to concede the entire month of December, but the long drawn out spectacle it has now become is just annoyingly blind commercialization.
