Re: Another Christmas Tree Question...

Goes on when I get home from work and off when I go to bed.

On the weekends I put it on earlier in the day, and it goes on first thing in the morning on Christmas day.

Pretty much the same for us. And it is on all day and night for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

If I'm home, they're on. And if they were on display in front of a window, I'd probably keep them on even when I wasn't home! Chat Icon

Re: Another Christmas Tree Question...

Pretty much sunset to bedtime. Sometimes, DC will turn some of the lights on before I get home, but they usually forget, so it's usually when I get home from work.

Re: Another Christmas Tree Question...

It's off all day while we're at work, then when we're home for the night it's on until bed. Really just a few hours. On the weekend maybe a little more than that, if we stay home.

The entire day, then off before bed. Right back on in the morning.

My kids wouldn't have it any other way.
