OMG! I'd forgotten about the silver tree with the spinning colored light. We had one of those. We also had the pink tree one year that my mother had to have. It got voted down the second year. Hmmmm . . . she seemed to really like pink. I wonder why she never let me wear it and made me wear blue (that I don't especially like) instead?
