'Tis The Season....




Visitors and Gifts....

A Wonderfully familiar looking package arrived on my front porch last week, Dear Readers, this time in a very timely manner! It only took five days to cross the Oceans and travel to this little Town! (Last year it took more like five weeks to arrive on these shores!) It only took me a few more minutes to open the box to see what Birgit had sent! As anybody who has ever received one of Birgit's boxes knows, they are filled with wonderful seasonal treats! And this year's box is no exception!

Here is a beautiful Made-by-Birgit card......

With a Lovely picture inside of the Blog-Bearies Fluby and Rosey
 standing with Birgit's Christmas Cupboard
 that she made last year!
 Now I have my own picture of this Enchanting Mini-mini project!

There was also an envelope filled with tiny Christmas treasures....
all of them showing the trade-mark Birgit magic details!
The (still wrapped!) package is going under the Christmas Tree
 to be opened on Christmas morning....
but the Marzipan which was visible in the second picture
 has already been put to good use!
Thank you Birgit for your Generous Gifts!
And even more, Thank you for your friendship!
 
And because we are on the subject of gifts...
I also had the gift of a Visit from my Sister, Dear Readers,
 and while it was brief, it was Wonderful!

And look who came along with her.... 
Marmalade and Buttercup!

Riding on their own North Pole Christmas Express Train!

It was already quite late when they finally made it to the Cloud Palace....
 They were so eager to visit with their Fairy Beary cousins!

But they wanted to surprise them.....

"Surprise....!!!" said Buttercup as she jumped into the Palace....
"We're Here....!" said Marmalade as she followed Buttercup.

"And we brought you a gift..." said Buttercup
 as a Silver Mist Pine Tree appeared beside her.

All the Bearys were very excited to have Visitors.....
 and in almost no time, Buttercup and Marmalade
 were drinking Tea with Blue and Lady Lavender and Sweet Pea.

While Brother Beorn came to have a better look 
at this Silver Mist Pine Tree....

"It is clearly a different variety than the Silver Tinsel Tree..."
 he said as Sweet Pea Joined him.


"It looks like a very young specimen..." she said.

"We might need to shelter it.... 
especially since it comes from the South..." she added.

And while the other Bearys were occupied inside.... 
Hamish Harry and sir Orion had wandered over to the Guard Tower....

Where the North Pole Christmas Express was
 pulled up beside the Enchanted Cloud Cycle.....

They had to admit.... neither one
 had ever seen Anything Quite like it!

"I wonder how this thing goes..." said Hamish Harry as he climbed aboard....

Sir Orion jumped on behind him.... 

"I bet they hid the keys...." he said.
"Ach... I'm sure it'll never out-run my Cloud Cycle......" said Hamish Harry.
"And I'm sure it would never turn as quickly as Thunder can...." replied Sir Orion.
"But it sure has great wheels...." he added.
"Aye, and it can hold a mighty great cargo too!" said Hamish Harry.


And while they were all getting caught up over tea and cake,
 Dear Readers, I did manage to sneak in a few minutes
 to work on Blossom number Thirty-six!


Alas, my Sister's visit was short but Sweet...
and they were long gone by the time the blossom was finished.


Here you can see it in the box with the rest.
 
But as you can see Dear Readers,
I didn't get much done in my mini worlds last week...
Because 'tis the Season for Visitors and Gifts...
And I hope you all receive plenty of both!
