In Christianity, Christmas tree is symbolic of birth and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The tree’s branches and shrubs are viewed as an emblem of immortality and are said to symbolize the crown of thorns worn by Christ on the cross. Also, every decoration used to adorn the Christmas tree is believed to have a special significance. And spiritually, our qualities are also said to be ornaments; for instance, peace, love, kindness, joy, goodness, Faithfulness, gentleness, etc. Though, people choose the ornaments for decorating as per their choice. The stated Christmas tree spiritual meaning is followed by all Christians, which is why they give utmost importance and work hard in decorating the Christmas tree. Decorating the tree gives the whole family a cherishable time and every year, all the members come together to adorn the tree with various ornaments and make wishes for a healthy and joyful life.

Commonly, people use a shining star as Christmas tree topper. But why? People are of the opinion that the star guided the wise men to Jesus Child in Bethlem. Angel is also used as tree toppers because it is said it was the angel who announced Christ’s birth.

The bells hanging at the side of the tree branches represent the joy and happiness of this day.
The candy cane-shaped, like shepherd’s crook, represents God’s shepherd.
The wreath is an epitome of true love.

Tailspin Farms

Welcome! Come on in and stay a while. We are a husband-and-wife team with 3 adult kids and 3 grandchildren. Our simple living journey started back in 1998. God blessed us greatly. We brought our two family’s together and was able to purchase our first place together.

We worked hard at our first place making it a working farm.

With the love for horses, I started boarding horses and giving riding lesson. Stace was right by my side every step of the way. Our business grew. We sold that place and moved to a big horse facility that would hold up to 65 horses. It was a lot of hard work. We went from a hand full of horses to the sems busting open. We were at full capacity. Over the years there I showed, trained, and gave lessons.

We moved again to a larger place. Some of my clients moved with us. At our new place it was laid back. we still showed our horses. With the property we were able to go on long rides and enjoy the countryside.

Due to injuries over the years, I started slowing down. We found the place we are now and had to have it.

We picked up and moved again. In 2009 Stace and I started Tailspin Farms in Stockdale Texas.

You can ask us about rabbits, chickens, goats, pigs, cows, horses, honeybees, gardening, home cooking, Bar-B-Q, Canning and just living the simple life.

Stace and I want to share our knowledge and experience of this hard work we do called farming or homesteading. So, come along with us and our family as we go through this journey.

Blessing,

Margarita & Stace
