| We gave up on decorating the house with lights years ago. It's just such a fuss! We do well to get a decent-looking tree up.

Country: | Yeah I always enjoyed the Christmas time though. I enjoy decorating the house with my wife and going to the Weinachts Maerkte here in Germany, especially when it is a white christmas.

| I live in the Southern US. The closest thing I've ever had to a White Christmas was one year when we had a morning frost. We are more likely to get snow in March than in December.
