    That's veeery possible :) My dad has blue eyes and both of his parents have brown eyes,and his grandfather had blue eyes.Then my mother has brown eyes and so does her father,and the blue eye gene passed to me.

      Yes, it is kind of rare, but extremely possible. I don't know the exact science but it has alot to do with the kid's genes. Wish I could have been of more help. Maybe, I'll do a little research and get back to you. Good luck. (:

        Yep, they can, both my parents have dark brown eyes and dark color hair, my older sister turn out to have bright blue eyes and blonde hair, My middle sister and I both have dark brown eyes and dark brown hair, my older sister got her blue eyes and blonde hair from my aunt.

        Your older sister actually got her blue eyes and blonde hair from BOTH SIDES OF the family as both these traits are recessive. See answer above.

        Blue eyes is a recessive trait. This means that to have blue eyes a child has to inherit the blue gene from BOTH parents . So the blue eyed gene has to be passed on through both parental lines.( Unlike a dominant trait that will show with the gene from one parent only ). So two  brown parents can have a blue eyed child BUT ONLY if both parents are carrying the gene for blue and the ova and sperm which made the said child both  contained the blue allele.//// The mendelian chances for two brown eyed parents ,both carriers for blue is 1 blue eyed out of every 4
