Too soon for the Christmas tree?

It was just a few days ago, while we were driving home when we heard the first Christmas song being played on the radio. I thought… “Isn’t it too early to be playing Christmas music?” I said to my husband… “It’s just weird, since it was only days ago that we were celebrating the scary, haunted holiday we call Halloween.” Not only that, but many of the stores we enter now have Christmas trees decorated, and the aisles are filling up fast with everything Christmas. So, I had this thought. Is it too early to be putting up our own Christmas tree? In the past few years, I’ve always started displaying the Christmas decorations shortly after Thanksgiving. After all, we are still two weeks away from that day of Thanksgiving. But with the Christmas music being played and the stores executing the ornamentation of the Christmas season, it has me very anxious to begin unpacking the Christmas boxes even earlier this year. Since we have agreed to trim the tree with everything imitating the colors of Boise State, I thought it wouldn’t be such a bad idea, since football season isn’t even over yet. I’m just not sure I want to be the first one to put up the Christmas tree. I’m curious if anybody has any thoughts or opinions. It would be nice to know if anyone else has had these same thoughts.
