Christmas 2016
With serious family issues right at Christmas, I was unable to take photos either before or during the holidays,
so decided to let my dolls celebrate Christmas afterwards, in January.

Flowers for Mom
Nyssa and Eric chipped in together, and bought their Mom two beautiful poinsettia plants...

Their Mom loved the flowers, and gathered Nyssa and Eric in close, for a big 'thank you' hug.....
a Gift for Holly
Holly's Dad had a special Christmas gift for her, and her brothers gathered around to see.....
"My own tools! Now I can help you make stuff!"
"This is a really great saw!"
Chloe's Toys

Holly's Project
Holly was eager to use her new tools, so her Dad took her out to the back woodlot to help him saw firewood.
He figured that was simple enough, and a great way to learn how to saw properly....

"This is hard work!" But she kept right at it....

"Can I take this piece? I want to make something out of it."
Inside, Holly got busy working on her secret project, being careful to watch her fingers....

After considerable hammering, drilling, and gluing, Holly's Yule Log was finished...
So she took it to her Mom...
"I made this for you!"
Leona lit the candles....
.....and they sat and reminisced as the Christmas season finally came to an end.....
