PICKING OUT

THE RIGHT CHRISTMAS TREE

This is the weekend

when most families are out

selecting their holiday tree.

Mostly fresh cut 

(they smell soooo good.)

Picking the best tree 

is usually a family decision --

the right shape, not too tall,

no funny limbs hanging out.

And with room for the ornaments

and tinsel back home.

Then tie it to the car,

and getting it through the front door.

Putting the star on top 

is a great "first thing to do."

Then we can put on the lights,

and hang the family ornaments.

It's a great tradition.

And I'm happy to learn

buying and recycling a natural tree

is better for the environment

than an artificial tree!

How would you decorate a tree

for the holidays?
