I usually get it all down before New Years because like you I get tired of looking at it. Especially this year as we will be leaving for New Jersey and then our cruise on January 5th. So I need to have a clear head and have everything put away and the lights down as we won&#39;t be back till after our cruise which January 20th. But then we are staying in NJ for our grandaughtes 17th birthday on the 22nd. so we probably won&#39;t arrive back home till the 24 or so.
