Christmas Countdown #7
And the christmas countdown continues. Christmas countdown #7 is decorating the christmas tree. One of my favorite trees is the one in Rockefeller center. The lighting of this famous tree is something that screams christmas. You know that the tradition began in the depression-era. Workers actually decorated a small fir tree with strands of cranberries and tin cans. Alot has changed, considering the tree is now typically around 100 ft tall, adorns 30,000 lights, with five miles of wiring, and is topped with a 550lb Swarovski crystal star. Are you liking this history lesson. Apart from entertaining, I like educating my readers on fun facts that you probably never need to know.
If you haven't, go put up your tree. It will put you in the christmas spirit. We put it up last week and we played christmas music and turned on a christmas movie. So much fun!!!!!!!

I have always wondered if that tree is real. I have always assumed so, but it is SO HUGE!

We have a tradition of putting ours up the weekend after Thanksgiving. It really does put you in the spirit to have it up with all the lights twinkling. And, this weather is really helping too!
