Outdoor Christmas tree


This school year I stumbled upon this book called The Christmas Tree Farm.  The story tells about a little boy who helps his Grandparents on their Christmas Tree Farm.  They cut down the trees, Grandma makes cookies for the customers, and it's a family business.  At the end of the story they have one tree in the backyard they don't cut down because it was the first Christmas tree they planted.  Instead they use food to decorate this tree for wildlife.  It inspired me to start a new tradition with the boys.  We rolled pinecones in peanut butter then birdseed and strung fresh cranberries on strings. Next we took them over to Beaver Creek Park by our house and decorated the trees.  There were birds flying into the trees as we were finishing up.  It was pretty cool.







Eat up wild animals!  Merry Christmas!
