In the midst of the holiday rush, we’re taking time to appreciate the little things. What better way to slow down and savor the spirit of the season than to celebrate trees? Trees are joy makers! To prove our point, we’ve gathered some of our favorite tree moments from holiday movies.

The Grinch may have stolen all of Whoville’s decorations and presents, but he didn’t steal their spirit! Nothing could stop the Whos from gathering around a tree and celebrating the most important part of the holidays: community.

Charlie Brown Christmas

“I never thought it was such a bad little tree. It’s not bad at all, really. Maybe it just needs a little love.” – Linus Van Pelt, “A Charlie Brown Christmas”
