Dedicated to Stephanie December 2010

Every December, my house transforms into a red and green winter wonderland as my family prepares for the holidays. This year, as I dealt with Stephanie’s breast cancer and as my involvement with 1in9 grew, PINK was all I could think about! I want pink everything! So of course, I ended up with my first pink Christmas tree…

It’s the first thing you see when you come into my home. The kids LOVE it – and I share the 1in9 story with every one that comes to visit.

The entire tree is decorated with pink – pink breast cancer ribbons, pink ornaments, and my favorite, pink flamingos! It just makes me smile when I look at it, and it has become everyone’s favorite tree! Sometimes in the evenings, I sit in the living room by myself and enjoy its glow.
