December Dilemma

Issue of the week #4 "A couple has agreed upon marriage to raise the children according to one faith (for argument sake, let's say Judaism). The non-Jewish spouse is trying to "get with the program" and is contemplating conversion - but hasn't quite reconciled all the issues. The end of the year is upon them and the old "December Dilemma" has reared its face. George, the non-Jewish spouse wants a Christmas tree, and Deborah wants nothing of it. If they approached you, how would you advise them? (Remember, they made a child-rearing agreement, and George is considering conversion).
