OUR CHRISTMAS TREE ADVENTURE 2011






This year we decided to put a live natural and fresh Christmas Tree. Our tradition as a family is to put it up on Thanksgiving Day. I was surprised that they were not as expensive as I thought. On the 24th we went out to eat Thanksgiving lunch with some neighbors. It was 3 families all together in an apartment our size with many children, can you imagine? But the fellowship was so wonderful and more intimate than in a bigger place. The girls played hard after lunch with the other kids as the adults talked for some time. After that, we were so excited to set up our Christmas Tree. I did my tree decoration shopping at the Sharing Shop, Praise God for the ministry, I got everything I needed for our tree. Frank set up the tree and put the lights on it. The girls and I decorated the tree, it was a lot of fun! We did it while Isaac was taking a sweet nap. As I look at my tree, it looks so beautiful. This kind of tree smells so good and looks more alive than an artificial.
