Other accounts credit Charles Follen a German immigrant to Boston for being the first Family Christmas Gifts introduce to America the custom of decorating a Christmas tree. August Imgard a German immigrant living Family Christmas Gifts Wooster Ohio is the first to popularise the practice of decorating a tree with candy canes. So I expect my government representatives to send me a card that says Seasons Greetings not Merry Christmas. In fact I dont think religious holidays should ever be statutory holidays. There are even readily made lanterns that are made out of plastics or clay. Ya its Freak-opher! Costumes can be Family Christmas Gifts for theme parties or fancy dress competitions. People love dressing up like their favorite scary characters during Family Christmas Gifts time of the season.
