Love Asheville.
Same here. We live about 45 minutes from there and spend as much time in the area as we can!

1st December is the date they go up in our house. Doesnt feel "Christmassy" if they have been up for 8 weeks by the time 25th December arrives.

Plus the wife wants to get all the presents under the tree straight away.....and the dog wants to remove them to her crate....

As an FYI the annual passes are on sale for $100 off through the end of this week. But the annual pass doesn’t include the Downton Abbey Exhibition. Also, you may already know, but reserving a time in advance to tour the house is recommended. It was pretty packed today. Have a great trip!
Thanks for the input Rick. Greatly appreciate it.

I just can't eat and enjoy my Thanksgiving turkey with the next holiday's decorations staring at me.

One holiday at a time in my house. Friday after though...good bye Autumn leaves and hello sparkly Christmas stuff!

How do you keep the cats out of all that fun stuff inside?

My wife ignores them when they get into mischief, but I'm so OCD about something being out of place I would drive myself crazy!!!

funny...they don't climb any of the trees but they do like to sleep under it when the lights are on. Nayla tho like to nip at a lot of the Christmas stuff. but so far they've been good not to ruin anything.

Today I learned that there are really no outdoor/waterproof usb Connections for Christmas fairy lights. So I'm going with a solar powered 66ft set to wrap my front tree. I'll have pictures Wednesday after the lights arrive

Finally finished the lights today. Thought I was done until I kept overloading one of the fuses...my wife wished me good luck and said don't stay out too late Clark! (Xmas vacation reference for those unaware...and if you don't know that movie shame shame shame)

Then we got some snow so that delayed me another couple days. But went out in the 30 degree weather and got it done!

I have a feeling that you don't only have one tree that lives in the foyer of your beautiful home.

How many really?

Thank you!
Haha!! Well, that's where the Big One is. We have a couple more tiny ones:
By the Fire Place and upstairs.

Nice!!

It threw me for a moment as I thought I could see a figure in the glass of the door until I figured out it was the reflections of the lights from the tree and entryway.

I LOVE inflatables! And happen to own a 12tf Santa and Frosty. Unfortunately, even with the anchors, wind gusts can be brutal. Last year I tried putting them up only to have them blown down multiple times.

I have Santa and penguins on a sled as my inflatable. I hate it, but it's been up every year we've had this house. I have to put up my other fairy lights outside tonight.

No... I am pretty sure there is a ninja turtle at his door. Probably bringing some pizza over or something, hard to tell.
