Pitched Your Christmas Tree Yet?

Here's a topic of conversation that probably comes down to sentimentality: have you tossed out your Christmas tree yet?  I've noticed a lot of trees street-side.  In my family, we always like to put it up the first weekend of December and then take it down on New Year's Day.  I like to enjoy it as long as possible since it's beautiful, but I must admit, when all the decorations are down and the tree is out of the house, I do breathe a small sigh of relief to have my living room back in order with more space.  It does get a bit crowded during the holiday season.
