When Christmas time came I noticed how mistletoe was clumped together in the trees around. One day when I walked to town I found the perfect tree but it belonged to someone I didn't know who was working outside. The mistletoe was hanging low in this tree and I thought I could get a ladder and come back and get it down. Instead I got "Little lady you'll have to get a shot-gun to get this stuff down, whatcha want it for anyway?" I passed on that one.<br /><br />A shotgun? I thanked him and told my hubby when he came home, and he shook his head and said he'd get some. Steve brought me some mistletoe a few days later, with moss attached. I sent some to Michigan, where it doesn't grow to my Mother and Dad, and we hung a nice small ball size in our entry way for a church party we were having. Like gathering pine cones and spraying them gold for a basket next to our fireplace, Natural things add decor. I'll never forget how naive I was and happy to have mistletoe growing in trees nearby.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09274086723105922122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8844605571269638041.post-91098122913564290932013-10-10T20:53:33.535-04:002013-10-10T20:53:33.535-04:00forget to say I have no mistletoe memories of my o...forget to say I have no mistletoe memories of my own, but look forward to making some this year. :)Debbie Lynne and Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279557718652564583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8844605571269638041.post-70659843548980649152013-10-10T20:52:12.561-04:002013-10-10T20:52:12.561-04:00what a gorgeous giveaway opportunity!

He would jump up, get a kiss and dance her around the room......such joy they had with each other. So of course when I married my special husband, we had to have mistletoe over the door going into our kitchen. And yes, Ron hops up for his kiss and a dance around the room. As long as my parents lived they would kiss under the mistletoe! We will keep the sweet memory alive.....I can still see my parents doing this in mind and am so thankful to them for the way they showed me what a good marriage should be.....filled with love, joy and God in the center.Becky Glaze Poundnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8844605571269638041.post-13296676940883140172013-10-10T15:37:21.990-04:002013-10-10T15:37:21.990-04:00We have mistletoe that grows in the trees overhead...We have mistletoe that grows in the trees overhead, here in my neighborhood. This isn't your standard mistletoe memory but I was so tickled when my then-90 year old neighbor told me they used to shoot them out of the trees on Christmas. That was funny to imagine people blasting away so they could have their mistletoe!Carrie Fancett Pagelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096954464239963966noreply@blogger.com
