It's going to be a Blue Christmas?

Earlier, I did a post on how my daughter wanted a "pink Christmas Tree" for Christmas this year.  That is what she told her Grandmother every time she asked what she wanted and so she got one.  It is still a magical tree since Ava has only had one night that she has slipped and come to our room in the middle of the night. . . which is a huge miracle.  :)
However, ever since the moment  Christian saw that PINK tree, he immediately decided he NEEDED a BLUE one.  This was a tad bit harder to find and who would think a Blue tree to be pretty.  I warned him they didn't have blue ones and we might have to buy a green one and put blue lights on but he was not deterred.  His faith in having a Blue Christmas Tree in his room was set in stone. . . .solid.

So out to town we went, Grandma, Ava, Christian and Mommy.  We knew what we were in search of and after a long day of shopping and hungry bellies, we decided to settle on a tree that was green and we would have to convince him that the lights could be blue.  Then, low and behold, across the way, on the bottom shelf, there it stood.  A BLUE Christmas Tree.  Were our eyes playing tricks on us?  There was no such thing, right?  But, yes, Ava had indeed found her brother his desired dreamt up tree.  I am not actually sure who was most excited, the Grandma and Mommy that were basically dancing in the aisle with excitement and slight disbelief or the little boy who's dreams were coming true right before his eyes.  What child like faith can do for a person.  There was only one blue one left and it was so cute.  Then we found a tree topper and blue tree skirt that matched.  We could hardly wait to get home and set up the tree.  Christmas for Little Man had finally arrived. :)



The fun was truly had decorating the tree.  We found some little orange basket ball ornaments that matched his room great and of course a few Toy Story ornaments.  The part that simply melted my heart was when I walked back to check on him and he was staring at his tree.  Here he had taken some of his trains and placed them around the tree.  So sweet.  It was perfect to scale.  :)
