I believe this theme of the truck with the Christmas tree in the bed came out last year around this time of year. If it started before that I do not remember it much until then and this year it has gotten even bigger. I went into a Kirkland's (having a huge sell by the way) over the weekend and there were paintings, pillows, blankets, coffee mugs, and much more with this small truck and tree on it and I Absolutely Love It!
I love trucks in general, especially the older models. I grew up in trucks. Learned how to drive in one. My future truck as a kid was my dads red stick shift dually. We drove it everywhere. I knew I wanted it to be mine one day, but of course as I got older I did not think I could drive a stick shift through out a little city back and forth to school and work and other places so my dream truck to have was no more until my dad found a 95 white ford step side pick up. It was incredible.
An older couple had it before me and had placed pink pinstripes on it with blue checkered stickers along with a pink word on each side, "Sassy". We immediately removed sassy knowing that did not fit me at all but left the pink and blue stripes and boxes. I drove it the rest of my high school life into the beginning of college until it started breaking down on me more and more and becoming unreliable for the trips between college classes and work etc...so the truck had to go, but I always miss my truck. The way it drove, the ride, the style. May be one day I will have one like it again, but back to the point, this new theme reminds me of it and I adore this picture.
What do you think of this truck tree holiday theme? Are you a truck person?
