We started a tradition about two years ago, the boys go and find a tree and the girls decorate! Our son loves the fact that its just the boys who go, and he's not too fussed about not decorating! (Although he does add 1 or 2 decorations and then gets tired!).
They went out last Saturday hunting for a tree. After going to about 4 different places they finally found one at a Christmas tree farm, all the others they had seen were not 'good enough' for Mummy! They cut it down and dragged it to the owner, who then measured it and informed my husband of the price - probably the most expensive tree we will ever get! But it is beautiful, straight, tall, compact and wonderfully green!
The next day at church our son proudly went and told everybody about our ENORMOUS Christmas tree!
Whenever I think about Christmas trees I am reminded of Colin Buchanan's song King of Christmas.
Let the Christmas tree remind you of
the one who trusts the Lord
who walks the path of godliness
and loves to hear God's word.
Pray that as you grow up
that's just how you will be
Standing tall for Jesus
like the Christmas tree.
