CT, do you know the story behind the Christmas tree and it's tradition. I can remember only that the evergreens were chosen for the first Christmas trees because they symbolized eternal life, what with them not dying in the Winter like decidious trees. I also remember the first Christmas trees were decorated with candles. It kinda makes you wonder if someone had to stay up nights to make sure the tree didn't burn up. Other than that, I don't remember much else. Do you have the rest of the story?
