Decorations Xmas

When does Disney start putting up their xmas decorations, specifically the gingerbread house in the grand flor

The gingerbread house inside the Grand Floridian starts to be assembled when?
And when are most christmas decorations up all throughout the Disney World parks?
I'm going November 18th through Novemeber 24th.
will the gingerbread house and other decor be up?
All you people that say after thanksgiving...
Then WHY does Mickey's Christmas party start November 13th?
hmmm
answer me that.

You are going at the perfect time. All the decorations will be up. I went at that time last November. It was gorgeous. The gingerbread house is actually a little store where you can buy delicious cookies, treats, etc. There is so much lights in Mgm that it took us an hour to go through and take pictures. There are many huge, decorated Christmas trees up, and wreaths, etc.

Many people feel that Xmas has become over-commercialised and that we’ve lost sight of the things that make it special, such as spending time with friends, family and loved ones, celebrating, resting and showing compassion and generosity.

In the midst of all the pressure and stress of Xmas it can be difficult for us to remember the things that really matter to us at Xmas and the steps we can take to build more of them into the festive period.  We simply need to remember that we are in control of our lives and can create the Xmases we want – we don’t have to endure the commercialised and rushed version of Xmas that seems to be the modern norm!

Below are some brief ideas on how we can get the Xmas we really want.  For more ideas and tips, visit www.lifesquared.org.uk and download Xmas² - our FREE guide to having a happier, wiser and more meaningful Xmas.

One important aspect of Xmas for many of us is spending time with other people, and there are many things we can do to get the most out of this, including inviting neighbours round for a drink, watching less TV and showing hospitality to friends who don’t have anything arranged for Xmas.  We can also give ourselves the chance to have a more restful Xmas by prioritising our time, only doing essential Xmas tasks and asking other people to help us with those tasks we have to do.

Showing generosity is also important to us at Xmas - but you don't need to buy people lots of stuff to do this!  For example, we could be generous in the amount of time, effort, attention, affection or many other things we could give them.  This could involve visiting someone, making a phone call, helping out with the chores, making gifts or many other things.

Xmas is traditionally a time when people are encouraged to think and act in a compassionate way.  It is an ideal time to start carrying this thinking and behaviour into your day-to-day life on an ongoing basis.  This can cover a range of behaviours – from showing forgiveness to helping someone in need.  Acts of compassion and forgiveness can take bravery, but perhaps there could be opportunities for you to do them in your life – even in situations you previously thought impossible?

It may involve going out of your way to do an unselfish act for someone else, to admit a share of the blame for an argument (even when you feel you were right) or putting yourself in an awkward position for a moment in order to raise a sensitive issue.  Challenge yourself to find the courage to do it where, in your heart of hearts, you think it is needed.

Many of these steps to simplify and take control of our Xmases support another important point – the need to live sustainably.  Xmas can be a time of enormous waste and environmental impact, and this is often driven by our thirst for more material goods and our supply systems importing food, gifts and other goods from around the world.  By seeking a more meaningful and relaxed Xmas, we may find ourselves consuming less and living more sustainably – for example, by making presents, decorations and some Xmas food rather than buying imported products that have high ‘Xmas miles’.

At Life² (www.lifesquared.org.uk), we’ve developed a guide on how to have a happy, wise and meaningful Xmas, called Xmas².  The booklet is packed with ideas and practical tips on how you can have a truly memorable festive experience - one with less consumerism and waste, and with more of the things that make festive celebrations great, including people, fun, relaxation, generosity, compassion and the opportunity to reflect.  This isn’t about restoring more religious meaning to Xmas – it’s about remembering what’s important, in both Xmas and life generally.

It is available as a download from www.lifesquared.org.uk for free until Xmas.  We hope it helps you to have a fabulous festive period!
