Several years ago, a neighbor graciously gave me a Christmas Village set that she bought at an auction. It fits perfectly in my big bay window. This year I added two houses, some action figures, and extra home lights. Here is a view of it at night:

Here are some close ups of some of the buildings:

| The mailman was a gift from Harold this year. |

| Aren't these little raccoons adorable? They are raiding the trash cans by the bakery. Harold gave me this addition also this year. |

| The building on the right is one of the ones I added this year. I found it for 50 cents at a rummage sale. |
 |
| The building on the far left is another new addition. |
Last year my grandson Jeffrey had such a good time looking at the buildings in the village. He would sit and ponder each building, and we played a game making up stories about what each building was about. I hope to add a few more figures each year. I only have room on the window sill for one more building, maybe two, if I crowd things together. It sure does brighten up the living room!

Love it! I wish I had a windowsill to do it
Cozy setup, I like it!!
Do you still have the ceramic houses that I bought in England?
Yes, and it's in the 4th photo down. The counting house. The other houses were not ceramic and I still do have them.
