For space and Griff-related reasons, we haven’t been able to put up our Christmas village for a few years now. The new house has a much bigger dining room,  and Griff is now at an age where we don’t have to hide everything that might fit into his mouth or might be broken if he tried to knock it off the table.

As usual, we have the various little villagers going about their holiday business.

We can’t forget the village drunks over at the Melancholy Tavern!

And best of all, this.
