We have a ribbon on top. It's a tradition that started when my wife and I had our first christmas on our own and couldn't afford an angel or star. We had to borrow money from my parents just to get a tree. What ever we didn't already have, we had to make due. Now the ribbon reminds us of everything we have and not to take it for granted.

I am partial to a couple of weeks prior to Christmas myself... If you wait for the week before it is just too short a time to have the tree up... In other words why go to all the trouble of putting it up if you are just going to take it down in a couple of weeks. Add to this the fact that trees are cool and the kids really like it.

I haven't put up a tree since I moved out of my Dad's house, but then we used a star. My Mom uses a bow usually, but she tends to do a theme thing, so whatever the theme of the year is. I prefer a star.

This year we have an angel, my daughter likes them. We used to have a star. I have no preference, I just like to make my daughter smile,to me that is what Christmas is all about.

I always use a large bow...but if I had to choose between star or angel, star all the way. If I ever find a star I like I may even get one.

Not worth fighting over. I'd put a rubber penis up there if it made everyone happy.

Well, there is a star on top of our tree because it was the prettiest thing I could find at the store when I was buying tree-ings. Had I found a prettier angel, I would have bought that.
Actually, I would love to put the Death Star on top of the tree. Or the Milennuim Falcon. But I have neither of those. And I am pretty sure there were three wise men. I will look it up and get back to you.
