Fionna--- I think that the Department 56 Halloween village has been out about a year and they just had only 1 or 2 houses last year. They are listed as Snow Village but there is an entire collection of houses and accessories that came out. There must be 7 Halloween houses available. What I have done in the past was put out some of my Dickens Village houses and the fall trees and pumpkins to make it look fall in appearance. These new houses are just so cute, most of them do something like flashing lights, noises, bats flying around that I was purchasing one of them, but with the promotion ended up with the second. And to think I went to the gift shop to purchase a Yankee MacIntosh candle that was 25% off. I should have known better. I also have been avoiding buy any more Dickens village houses. I think last year was the first year, I bought a house in a long time. I get them out around Thanksgiving and then put away in March. I have them upstairs and downstairs. On the dry sink, hutch, top of cedar chest, by the fireplace, on an old chest, and then some of the coffee tables. I figured that the Halloween ones will be my fall decoration and then can put away easily since I only have 2.
How is Jim doing? Isn't his Doctor appointment tomorrow?
