Muhammad Ali The People’s Champ Shirt

My parents were married on December 19th, so we always put the Christmas tree up on their anniversary. Most of the Muhammad Ali The People’s Champ Shirt we used store bought decorations on the tree, but one year my mother wanted a natural tree. So my brothers and I spent hours drawing and gluing and cutting out paper decorations. We also strung popcorn and cranberries that year. The only thing that wasn’t homemade was the lights and the icycles. It was a wonderful tree, and my mom still has those old paper decorations. Both of my brothers are gone from us now, so each year I put two of the paper decorations on the tree in honor of them. On Christmas Eve, we got to open one gift, and it was always pajamas. When bedtime came, we would put on our new pj’s and put a glass of milk and some homemade cookies on a little tray and put it in the living room for Santa. During the night “Santa” left gifts wrapped up in colorful paper and ribbons, and he always ate the cookies and drank the milk. We were always told to get to bed on time, because Santa couldn’t come if we were still awake.

The Northern Protestant German tradition is supposed to come from a Muhammad Ali The People’s Champ Shirt in 1536. Of course the tradition is really pre-Christian. Yule trees were dedicated to Odin at solstice and decorated with fruit and candles. But the story goes that Luther was walking through a pine forest near his home in Wittenberg when he suddenly looked up and saw thousands of stars glinting jewel-like among the branches of the trees. This wondrous sight inspired him to set up a candle-lit fir tree in his house that Christmas to remind his children of the starry heavens from whence their Saviour came. It really started spreading in popularity in the late 1700s with the rise of German Romanticism and German Nationalism. upper middle class Protestant families in Prussia wanted to express what the thought of as folk and country traditions. The early descriptions of German trees in the 1600s do not mention stars or angels. They say that people in Strasbourg “set up fir trees in the parlors … and hang thereon roses cut out of many-colored paper, apples, wafers, gold-foil, sweets, etc.
