    It's all fun and games until you gotta take that $h!+ down when it is -10°F and there's a foot of snow on the ground and on the roof!

    Here an agreed (for many years) approach- (scope and depth have changed since kids moved out).  You aka SWMBO can put up as many outside lights and  decorations (I used to do the lights hanging off the gutters...not in a few decades) as you desire.  I will take it all down on the first decent weather day post 12/25.  
    As you all know, the setup takes way longer than the tear down.  But never a certified Bi-ch complaint.  So, I am good with that.
    BTW- I have no responsibility for the cleaning and storage for the next go-round.
    But not nearly as elaborate as the above save the "DITTO" sign.   B)

    Love it. Christmas is my second favorite season save Quail season (some overlap). When the kids were little we went all out. Now they are 15 and 17 and we do what we have time for. The most important part is spending time with each other. Instead of putting up lights the boy and I are hunting. The girl and I are playing/watching soccer. 

    We still go cut down a tree. Did that before thanksgiving. It's up w lights but no decorations yet. That's cause we've been running and gunning with all the kids activities. @loco_engr enjoy the view and the season. Great post. 
    Fish, Hunt, Cook....anything else?

    You all still have snow on the ground in July?

    Turns out this 1 horse town with their Christmas lighting contest doesn't have a category for humorous decorations  :o
