Lego Winter Village: Day 22

20151222_091616

Day 22 is something more mysterious…

20151222_091748

A rocketship? That’s what I’m calling it anyway…

20151222_091836

Santa’s home and the elves have appeared! I’m missing a piece on the other half of Santa’s workshop, but here’s half of it!

I’ve added a new stall, and did a bit of re-arranging. I need more snow!

Lego Update: Days 12 thru 21

I haven’t had anytime to play with Legos over the last week. I plan to make a point of changing that now that Christmas is almost here! Here’s a quick catch-up of all the Lego Advent Calendar additions to date. Hopefully, I’ll be posting more updates this week.

Day 12 was more presents to add to our collection from last year.

A Lego Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a prisoner, so meet Day 13’s Cash Robar.

Day 14 (and 15 was it’s caboose, but for some reason I don’t have a photo of that) was a train!

Day 16 was a sheriff! Sheriff Phineas Balance supports Officer Carol’s methods of peaceful law enforcement through song, but also Officer Handcuffs use of force. He drives a police sled that arrived on Day 17.

Day 18 brought a friend for Caramel Frosting! Meet Vanilla Cupcake.

Soy McLatte got a friend on Day 19. Creme DeMocha came with her own snazzy pink smartphone, and matching fancy dessert beverage.

Day 20 was a snowman.

And today was a little campfire with giant marshmallows on sticks.

Here’s the current overhead shot.

Caramel Frosting is showing Vanilla Cupcake the finery points of dessert delivery.

There was no place to put the marshmallow sticks, and the ground seemed gross…so I stuck them in the tool bucket.

The pile of what I am currently working on…

Seasons Greetings!

Lego Winter Village Update:9, 10, 11

20151209_210542

I was really out of it this weekend…the pain medication had a delayed effect and hit me hard (mainly with a desire to sleep), and then took awhile to get out of my system. So, I didn’t even *open* my advent calendar this weekend. Pardon the messy posts while we catch-up!

20151209_210618

Day 9 was interesting….mind you, I’m really enjoying this calendar so far. Every day has had something to build and been a decent amount of pieces, even if it’s just been a counter.

20151209_210927

And day 9 brought this Christmas chair. Or throne? It’s a throne.

20151209_211121

Santa’s throne, of course, where else would he rule Christmas town from?

20151211_174105

Day 10 was nice.

20151211_174443

Another tree! It’s different from my other Christmas trees.

20151211_173842

Apparently, I didn’t manage to take a photo of the pieces on 11…well, there’s one more photo in this set that I think may be for this day, but it’s all black (?). Don’t know what happened there!

20151211_182108

Day 11 was a clock!

Lego Winter Village: Day 8

Other blog posts will be coming soon. My intent was to do both the regular ones and the Christmas Lego posts. However, life has been challenging the past few days (very busy, broke a tooth really bad, and the internet was down for 8 hours today…) As soon as I have time, I’ll get working on some other posts.

20151208_132653

20151208_132746

Oooooo….lots of little pieces.

20151208_132947

A cute little lamp post.

20151208_133007

I put it there, for now.

20151208_150654

Brezel’s Bakery received her permit to setup her stall in the new town.

20151208_185933

And we’ve got the village Christmas turkey ready to go.

20151208_162204

And Caramel Frosting, the cupcake delivery dog, is back on the job.

20151208_162209

We found the rest of Officer Carol’s sled.

20151208_185527

And his partner in crime, Officer Handcuffs, has also returned.

20151208_185544

What a crime-fighting team!

Lego Winter Village: Day 5,6 and 7

Day 5 of the Lego Advent Calendar…

20151205_214441

I was in a bit of a rush on Day 5…

20151205_21445220151205_214835

It was a toy biplane.

20151207_20525820151207_205322

Day 6 was a toy bulldozer.

20151207_205556

And finally Day 7…

20151207_205303

20151207_20563520151207_205854

It’s a boy with a smart phone & a cup of coffee? I’m naming him Soy Latte McFancypants.

20151207_210133

While all the other kiddos play with their windup and remote-controlled toys. He plays on his smart phone.

20151207_21013820151207_210101

Still wishing I could find the snow!

 

Lego Advent Calendar: Day 4

20151204_143311

Day 4 of the Lego Advent Calendar has arrived…

20151204_143325

So it’s another counter for beverages…

20151204_143752

We seem to be forming a pie, beer and hot cider station.

20151204_14570420151204_145714

I also brought out Holly the Pastry Farmer with awesome hair.

20151204_152040

And I set up the jewelry shop.

20151204_161653

Prisoner 86753, also known as Jenny, made it out of the box, still on his sled! He’s look for his son, Ben Beanie (aka Spare Child), but we can’t find him.

20151204_155638

20151204_154649

And Officer Carol is back in action!

20151204_152746

Sigh, cats.

20151204_152754

We also got out the bread cart….

20151204_160228

…and the remote-controlled duck.

20151204_152032

20151204_161702

Until tomorrow!

Lego Advent Calendar: Day 3

20151203_190110

Day #3 of the Lego Christmas Village!

20151203_190144

Hmm…what is this?

20151203_190139

Even more mysterious….what on earth is that?

20151203_190414

Okay…so the bottom part is definitely ice…and then there is a pie…and a bucket of ice skates…

20151203_191058

Perfect next to last year’s pie and beer counter!

20151203_191106

Suzie Skates is happy there is finally some ice in the town! So…it’s a personal ice-skating rink with pie?

20151203_191114

I wasn’t able to add much new today besides the calendar, but that’s our town!

 

 

Lego Winter Village: Day 2

20151202_182646

Day 2 of the Lego Advent Calendar is here!

20151202_182720

That looks like a person.

20151202_182740

A child-sized person with pretzels.

20151202_182706

Yep.

20151202_182841

Meet…the Pretzel Photographer….children have weird names in this town. He must be friends with the Pizza Pirate…maybe it is some sort of gang.

20151202_182854

He comes with an extra camera AND an extra soft pretzel.

20151202_193934

He’s there to photograph the remote-controlled cars, obviously.

20151202_193927

I’ve also added Larry Letter and his mailbox to the village.

20151202_193939

Along with the baby reindeer.

20151202_193944

The village so far! Wish I could find my snow…
