I went to Marshall's yesterday and they had all the fall decorations, along with Christmas of course, even though I enjoy decorating for Christmas, Fall takes over, I even have my "Thanksgiving tree" (more like a tall topiary) which is going up this weekend.
As far as shopping for Christmas, I haven't, I think this year I'll buy only for the kids, we have a big family, so on Thanksgiving day,since we are all together, we'll pick names from a bowl, that way we only have to buy for one family member and can spend a bit more on that special- secret person for Christmas.
That does not include Max, but since he is been such a good boy he'll get lost of presents from Santa.
