No Christmas Village would be complete with out Santa, as we didn’t have an “official” Santa, I put one together, I’ve nicknamed him “Mall Santa.” Mall Santa wears a pirate hat, a wizard beard, a costume borrowed from knights, and white “gloves” from a waiter. Mall Santa needs elves, so I found some mid-90s forest folk (think Robin Hood), confiscated their bows and arrows and set them to work as elves.
Winter Villages often have a gimmicky element, so Gavin built a Renaissance Carousel — it actually spins.
Very, very nice… I’ll be thinking of you when I am with Oma. Hugs and Love to all.
