Re: Lets see those TREES !!!!!!!

Here is mine. I'm HACKED because my husband didn't want to put up a big tree this year so I compromised and only put up the top two sections of our 9 ft tree. Even though my kids are grown I could tell they were MEGA disappointed and told me that they were going to have a talk with their dad! LOL

Re: Lets see those TREES !!!!!!!

Nice trees! I can't wait to get ours up now.

Ok, well, maybe I CAN wait. Maybe I'm really not in that big of a hurry. It's probably just all the Christmas movies I've been watching today on Hallmark. The feeling will pass soon, I'm sure..............

Re: Lets see those TREES !!!!!!!

Years ago I fellowshipped with an organization called The Church of Jesus Christ Pentecostal Faith. Later I was licensed by them for a year or two. I dropped out of that organization when we started going to an ALJC church in 1963 or 64 or thereabout.

The Presiding Bishop was very much against Christmas trees. One pastor and his family lived in Corbin, KY. The Dad was a pastor and one son was also a preacher with that group. One year the son decided he was going to go ahead and have a Christmas tree. So, as the custom was there they went out into the woods, cut a tree, and brought it home. The Dad railed on about them being a bunch of heathens (he probably pronounced it 'heatherns') and going against the Word. The son, who was also a preacher, was able to justify what they had done. He said, "We didn't disobey the Word. The Bible says, 'one cutteth a tree out of the forest.' Just one person didn't go cut it. A whole bunch of us went out there together."

I am really looking forward to the white and blue one. I love the blue lights and ornaments at Christmas time. I think it was because when I was little, 3 yrs old, we had a blue tree that year. It was the last tree my father allowed my mother to put up. My brother had died that fall in a car accident and I think he decided anything fun or enjoyable was a sin because of my brothers death. So we went cold turkey, no trees, no tv, no jewelry, no sports, no shorts, no breathing, no....... =)

Jax, you made me cry.

Did your father ever get over your brother's death? How very sad
