history
It is known that the day of Christmas, December 25th, was the day that Jesus was born. We celebrate this day every year in remembrance of his birth. Christmas is a time when families come together to celebrate such a beautiful time. Waking up on Christmas morning is what all kids dream about, knowing that Santa came the night before, and getting all those amazing presents. It is really a time to celebrate family!

Types of flowers
Poinsettias- With its long, velvety red leaves, the poinsettia is the definitive Christmas bloom.The Aztecs once believed that red was the color of wholesomeness, so they often included poinsettias in their religious rituals.
Mistletoe- The story of mistletoe has been wrapped in romance. Beginning in the Victorian era, mistletoe was decorated with ribbons and hung during Christmastime. Young single girls couldn’t turn down a kiss when they were standing beneath this pretty little sprout, and young men would take a berry from the sprig after each kiss
