Our Tree



I just wanted to share this picture of our Christmas tree. A lot of people don't know why we have them, but this is what I heard.

The Evergreen tree symbolizes His everlasting love.
The star or angel on the top is the north star or angel the wise men followed.
Our presents to each other symbolizes the gifts for baby Jesus.

I also have to tell you about Ethan's day at church. They had their Christmas show (which was absolutely awesome!). When Ethan heard someone say Jesus, He immediately said "Jesus, I like Jesus!" How precious? The actors had little lights with them and he shouted "LIGHTS! For me?" Ryan's sister danced and her boyfriend and her sang and he said. "Kristin, Vinnie, I go up there?" He wanted to be by them. He also kept copying everyone. Keep in mind that it is totally quiet in there, except the actors and Ethan. He got a couple of laughs. He is so cute! Oh, he saw a picture of santa on a shopping bag an actor had and he said "Hi Santa, I'm Ethan". He is the best!
