Tale of the Village Christmas Tree!

Once upon a time there was a young girl & young boy who met on a beach in Kenosha. They fell in love and got married.


They had a beautiful best lady in their wedding party...but I digress,




They had a little boy...& five years later, a little girl, and they bought a little blue cottage home with an evergreen tree out front.

The tree grew and grew and grew until it was bigger than the little blue cottage!



One day the Village people, that would be the people from the Village, told the young couple that they needed to replace the sewer lateral going up to the little blue cottage. The young couple would have to chop down the evergreen tree and in doing so they would grant the little, big tree wish. They would donate the tree as the Christmas Tree in the Village Square.
The Village people came and gently took the little, big tree...


















Adding the first Christmas bow, the young girl bids her tree farewell.











To it's new home in the Village Square for a Merry Christmas!




And now the people of the neighborhood can see the little blue cottage once again!

This is a wonderful storybook tribute to the little tree! I told Ellen to do this and you did it beautifully!! Seriously, you can upload this to one of those book places like BLURB and make a real book out of it!!

Yes that was a cool tribute! You can even make a book like that at Walgreens for $12.99. Hardcovered and everything. I was thinking about doing that but it would take so long to come up with words. But here is is all done.
