Many families honor the time-held tradition of selecting a live Christmas tree. I look forward to it every year! Choosing my own tree got me thinking about the history of the Christmas tree and its origins as part of the holiday season in the United States.
We have 16th-century Christians from Germany to thank for bringing their custom of indoor decorated trees to the United States.
