Any Day Now....

12.05.2008

**UPDATED TO ADD: If this applies to any of my sweet, darling and precious blogging friends, please just consider this a friendly, gentle reminder. Because I love my blogging friends, even if you do still have little frozen pumpkins on your steps.

To everyone who is still displaying pumpkins, ghosts, goblins, and political signs:

Take them down already.

Halloween is over.

So is Thanksgiving.

And so are all the elections (thank heavens!).

Put up your Christmas decorations so you have something to do in March... when you finally take them down before the azaleas bloom.

Love, me

Pink in a sea of blue :

I think you're the sister I didn't know I have. AMEN to this post!

Mom on the Run :

Guilty as charged (raising hand in the back row). I still have 2 pumpkins and frozen mums on my front porch. Although that's better than this time last year--I had two rotten pumpkins, a witch's broom, a devil's pitchfork, a GT Flag, a Nebraska flag and a Christmas tree in a bucket on my front porch. We called them our "Festivus" decorations. One of my friends did call and ask which school the baby Jesus attended, Georgia Tech or Nebraska.

Well, duh, everybody knows Nebraska is God's country!

I promise to put up my decorations after the Pilgrimage this weekend. I swear.

SaraMelene :

One of my pet peeves is when people have their Christmas decorations out-and pumpkins at the same time! And, that's exactly what I can see across the street when I look out my front door!

clemsongirlandthecoach :

Amen.

And a ditto on the entire post.

Katy :

Ok, everything is down inside my house. I've just got to go out there and throw those gords and pumpkins away. Forgive me please. We're putting up lights this weekend. OK ....thanks for that kick in the rear though.

Paige's Petals :

Guilty!

Just Mom :

Oh, heck yeah!

kmm0305 :

I guess my dh didn't get the hint to throw out the two remaining pumpkins on the front step when I said, "We should throw those away." He was too busy hanging the Christmas wreath. I promise, they will be gone by Tuesday! :) Gotta love pumpkins with a topping of snow--that makes them more Christmas-y, right?

Tonja :

AMEN and AMEN!!!

The 5 Bickies :

Thankfully, we don't fit into this category this week or this year. It's been close some years!

An Iowa Mom :

The Trailer Trash picture at the top of your post .... I have that magnet hanging on my fridge.

HAHAHAHA.

It was a gift from a friend. Hmmmm wonder what she was trying to say to me? My Autumn is down and Christmas is up.

BlondeMomBlog (Jamie) :

You've seen the garden flag by my mailbox haven't you? ;)

Lauren@Baseballs&Bows :

You are so funny! I actually saw a house yesterday that had their Christmas decorations out, AND their pumpkins were still out too. I am sure you would be loving that!

Sandi @the WhistleStop Cafe :

Jill~You are a kind saint for this public service announcement.

Your family photo's are wonderful!

Lauren :

My grandmother's neighbor still has an Obama sign in their yard. It's time to take it down already.

Enjoy your weekend!
