Lightning McQueen and Sally


Right before Kelsie's birthday she received a gift certificate to Toys R Us for her birthday. When we took her to use it she decided to get a Lightning McQueen and Sally car. Sounds like an easy request. Unfortunately it wasn't. Apparently over Christmas not only had Toys R Us sold out of Sally cars, but Target, Walmart, Kohl's, Imaginations Toys and Shoes, and every grocery store that usually carries them did too. We checked all of them basically one Saturday afternoon and evening. After our less than fruitful journey we explained that we couldn't find the a Sally and Kelsie seemed OK with that or so we thought. Everyday from that point forward all we heard was "Can we go get my Sally car now?". We continued our search for several days hoping one of the stores would restock without success. So I put out a plea to my mommy friends that if they ran across a Sally please pick one up for me.

Well my friend Dayna's husband Matt went above and beyond what we were expecting. He thought it was so cute that Kelsie wanted a Sally car so badly that he ordered us one online! Kelsie was so excited when she finally had a Lightning McQueen and Sally that she insisted on them coming to bed with her that night! We convinced her to let them sleep on the ottoman instead of in bed with her, so she tucked them and said goodnight! Above is a picture of them all snuggled in for the night!
