Reader Submissions: Christmas Trees - Pictures and Stories

The Christmas tree is the best-known of all Christmas traditions. While Catholics traditionally put up their Christmas trees on Christmas Eve and took down their Christmas trees after Epiphany, cultural pressures have led most Catholics (at least in the United States) to put up their Christmas trees earlier.

Please share a picture of your Christmas tree with your fellow readers of the About.com GuideSite to Catholicism. And if you have a special ornament or other feature of your Christmas tree, or if you have a story associated with your Christmas tree, please share that as well!
