What Are The Advantages To A Live Christmas Tree Vs. Fake Tree?

admin — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 16:03:44 +0000

Me and my mother have only used fake trees on Christmas and take a half hour tops to put up. Other people don’t want anything less than a living tree, but that seems harder to me because you have to get a new tree every year, go out and get it, bring it in the house whole, and water it everyday. That seems like a hassle to me. All we do is bring in the parts, put the parts together and voila! Christmas tree we can use for years. So why would you opt for a live tree?

What Are The Effects On Children Of Not Celebrating Christmas?

admin — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:39:06 +0000

My husband and I don’t celebrate Christmas. He thinks its too commercial, and I think I shouldn’t celebrate a “religious” holiday that I am not affiliated with. I don’t celebrate Hanukkah just because, why Christmas? Anyway, our families are slightly annoyed that we aren’t celebrating, but they have dealt with it. The question we keep getting is “But you are going to celebrate it once you have kids, right?” Do you think it is bad for a child not to celebrate a holiday when everyone around them is? I know that Christmas is becoming very secular, but even taking away the religious aspect, my husband would still not like the gross commercialization. Any thought? Thanks.

admin — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 03:21:03 +0000

I’m starting to prepare a series of Movie Marathon for my organization that will be happening on December 2009. I’m particularly looking for Hollywood movies whose setting happened during Christmas. The themes of the movies do not need to be about Christmas; but the setting should be Christmas Time.

(2) The Family Man (Nicholas Cage, Tea Leoni)
