Re: Ok- who else still has the christmas tree up?
We do!
I'm still at home with my parents (I'm almost 22, a grad student, and not allowed to live w/ FH til we're married).
We have a gorgeous artifical tree, same one for 21 years! It stays up and decorated until Jan 6th every year, it's Little Christmas. (or Russian Orthodox Christmas) - we're neither Russian, nor Orthodox...we're just lazy.

Ours is still up and in pretty good condition too!
We cut it down so we get alot more life out of it, but we always went by the little christmas rule too growing up!
Also, we're having a Holiday get together this Saturday so it all stays til thats over at least...

I can use the excuse that its not even Little Christmas yet

I actually took mine down this year..but two years agoo..we had it up through St pattys day..it was pathetic..by the time we dragged that thing out of here..the needles were dry and dead and it was a real mess.

I still have my tree up...it's holding up well...not many needles coming off yet. I feel so bad taking it down before Little Christmas...which I think is today...it's definitely coming down by Saturday. I did take all the ornaments off it though...

Re: Ok- who else still has the christmas tree up?
I broke down and took it down on Monday - couldn't take it any more!!! The needles were all over the floor and it was so dry - really a fire hazard at that point....so then i had to spend another 2 hours taking down all of the Christmas decorations also......lots of work! now the cats are mad at me because they were sleeping under the tree at night and now it's gone....

Re: Ok- who else still has the christmas tree up?
Danielle and I started boxing up some of the christmas decorations on monday but the tree is still up. We are dreading taking all the ornaments off and putting the tree back in storage...That is going to be a nightmare, but we are going to do it this weekend. We also still have our two Menorahs up and our Happy Chanukah banner...and our christmas cards....I like it up....So festive. But I cannot wait to get the apartment back to what it use to look like, less cluttered.
I took pictures of the apartment and how it looks decorated, and I will take pictures after we clean so everyone can see what it looks like. I havent been able to upload any of my pictures because my camera dock wasnt working, but I finally got it working. Scott

We still have ours up too. I was told though this morning that my project for today is to take the ornaments off of it. I just hate who naked the house looks once its gone.

We do! I keep bugging FH that we need to go buy a box so we can store our tree since we had to throw the other box away. I hope we can get it down this weekend but I don't know...I'll just tell people we're really in the Christmas spirit this year.

Re: Ok- who else still has the christmas tree up?
Ok forgive my ignorance here. But most of the roman catholics I grew up with took their tree down on the day of the epiphany - is this the little christmas all of you are referring to?

Ours is still up.
We will probably take it down this weekend.
Our moms always kept it up until Jan 6th for the Three Kings.

Still up here ... smelling and looking good!!! (and I stopped watering it on Monday so when we do take it down we don't end up spilling water all over the LR).
