Selecting a Tree!

This afternoon my host parents and I went and picked out a Christmas tree. Here are some pictures from our tree hunt.


You can get cut trees to put in a tree stand or trees in a pot. My host family always buys the potted tree and after the holidays they plant it in my host grandparents yard.

Tied up trees waiting to be sold.


Wheeling our tree to the car.

We had to drive with the trunk open. It was only a short drive home though.

And here is our Christmas Tree!

It is a Croatian tradition to decorate the tree Christmas Eve, not before. So this little tree will receive the trimmings then.
