————————————————————————————————————————————————–

So this is the title of the book, it looks very nice to me!

IMG_0760 (FILEminimizer)

When you open the cover, you see this, I love the layout of this page, it looks so clean and simple!

IMG_0761 (FILEminimizer)

This is one of the pages, lovely photos which I love to look at. This is a very good bedtime story because you get very tired of reading the story in the evening, I dunno but maybe it has a spell put on it to make it sleepy when read?!

Here is one of the last pages, each has a picture and text, the original families are some that I am constantly looking out for since I love them, the slydale brother Buster does look a bit odd though =)

This is the last page inside the book, it was first published in 1988 by Fantail and I am sorry that I did not take photos of every page because it says that it would be copying in the back here.

This is the very back of the book, I want to collect all of them, I think that there are eight all together.

Just a very short post today since I do not have that much time, I still need to BEGIN sewing ballet costumes and prepare Hollie, phew, it is going to just be a rush to the finish line! By the way, Hollie and I are going on a cruise so that is going to be exciting! We leave next monday!

Have a great day!

The Collectors Club Calendar

On the afternoon of Wednesday 30th of March, I recieved a lovely suprise when I came home from school.Yes, the calendar! So this is the parcel I saw on the dining room table.

It was covered in lots of little stickers of sylvanians (school children and under) There were also stickers on the back but I forgot to take a picture of them. I peeled the stickers off and put them on one of those sticker already used but the thing they were stuck on sheet thingeys.

Here is one of the stickery, Librety Harvey which I call Lulu Fisher in my village.

IMG_0738 (FILEminimizer)

Now I opened it and saw the above, so cute! You can’t buy them here I think so I am sooooooooo happy!

IMG_0739 (FILEminimizer)

See at the back there are all the seasons or monthes pictures. Now, I am not going to overly describe the pictures what you can see yourself.

IMG_0740 (FILEminimizer)

Here we have December of 2015, a lovely picture of children ice skating infront of the supermarket, toy store, sweet store and I think that on the left there is the beginning of the brick oven bakery.

IMG_0741 (FILEminimizer)

This is January 2016, the children are having fun in the snow, I think that the snow car looks a bit like it was made with coconut shavings =).

IMG_0742 (FILEminimizer)

This is Febraury, the chocolate sisters are helping in the brick oven bakery, don’t those cookies out of the oven look yummy!

IMG_0743 (FILEminimizer)

This is March, what a lovely easter picture, I love the little tree!

IMG_0744 (FILEminimizer)

This picture is for April, isn’t it cute?

IMG_0745 (FILEminimizer)

May, everyone is going shopping.

IMG_0746 (FILEminimizer)

This is my favourite one, aww, it is just too adorable for words!

IMG_0747 (FILEminimizer)

July is my birthday month but I have to say that this is my least favourite picture, I do not really like the adventure island theme at the moment.

IMG_0748 (FILEminimizer)

This one is ok, it looks very lovely to swim in.

IMG_0749 (FILEminimizer)

September, a nice picnic in the sun

IMG_0750 (FILEminimizer)

This is October as you have probably guessed.

IMG_0751 (FILEminimizer)

November, I also really like this picture.

IMG_0752 (FILEminimizer)

And finally December!

IMG_0753 (FILEminimizer)

There were also these holiday stickers.

——————————————————

Hmm, it is such a pity that there is no snow in nz at christmas time, =(. I do really like my calendar. Guess who was on EVERY single picture though? Yes, Freya Chocolate, her little sister was also in every except two. I do not actually like Freya very much she is overused. Now enough of that, I really love being in the sylvanian collectors club nz because they do not give age restraints, like, you have a fair chance and I do not think they take entries for competitions out just because the person was older. I will post the review about Hollies story (The original Hollies concert book) soon and I also am carrying on with the Basswood Herald, the village newspaper, do you have any ideas what I could put on the last page?

Funnily, I am having my ballet show this month and the picture on the calenar is ballet!

Happy Easter

“Mummy, mummy, MUMMY!” chirped the triplets as they jumped up and down excitedly on the bed. Arabella Treefellow was the last one to get up for a change, she had been up all night helping Dorothy Fisher bake hot cross buns.

“All right, I’ll get up” she groanded

“I told them not to but they were too excited” said her husband Aristotle, he was the trios first victim.

“You know what day it is today mummy? Do you? Do you?” they asked while fidgeting non stop

“Yes, how could I forget, you have told me nearly every hour at least sixteen times yesterday” their mother sighed

“So, what day is it?”

“It is christmas ahh, I mean-”

“Christmas! Wish it was but it is …” said Freddie

“EASTER” they finished.

“So I guess you are looking forward to hurch then are you?” Arabella commented

“Well, we were more thinking easter egg hunt” admitted William as he raced of with the rest of his siblings and father downstairs to get ready to go to the bakery.

Arabella sighed again and got up, she selected her very best dress and put it on. It was pink with part of it floral and had white pearls as buttons. She still was not quite awake.

IMG_0717 (FILEminimizer)

After a short walk, the family arrived at the bakery where they were met at the door by a very flustered Mrs. Fisher. “Five hot cross buns please!” said Aristole which made Mrs. Fisher even more anxious, she seemed to be on the verge of tears.

“Ooooooooooooooooh! I-I don’t have any!” she stuttered

“But I helped you make some!” Arabella questioned

“Yes but Lulu and Annie thought that it would be nice if the birds had a nice easter and-”

“And fed all the buns to the birds I assume?” finished Aristotle

“Exactly!” groaned Mrs. Fisher

“Hahaha! Exactly, get it? Eggxactly?” laughed Freddie, he was quite a joker, the triplets laughed loudly

“Freddie dear, what do you mean-” asked his mother gently

“Oh let him!” interuppted Aristotle, “Well Mrs. Fisher, we will just have buns then, and some of your delicious cookies!”

IMG_0721 (FILEminimizer)

Soon the family had found a nice place to have their picnic, apples, buns and cookies were laid out and of course tea for the parents and orange juice for the children. Soon enough though they had to leave for chruch, the children hoped that afterwards the Easter Bunny might just have come…

IMG_0722 (FILEminimizer)

Sshh! Look at this, Fraiser Chocolate hiding eggs? Wait a moment, Fraiser never wears dark green pants…could it be? I think it might well be… the Easter Bunny!

IMG_0724 (FILEminimizer)

Now look, he has finished and has a carrot from the veggie patch, how many easter eggs can you spot? Do you see the one in the tree?

IMG_0726 (FILEminimizer)

Uoh, hurry Easter Bunny! The Treefellows are coming!

IMG_0728 (FILEminimizer)

Now all the children are hunting for their egg, some are here while most of them are in the village. It would get too crowded if they were all in one place. Lisa Acorn has even found the one up in the tree!

IMG_0729 (FILEminimizer)

Happy Easter!

What do you think of the story? Gosh, my tree is coming in really handy! I will need to make another one see my tutorial here. Just leting you know, my calendar has not arrived yet and I have cleared up the mystery of my book (see collectors club post the full information) This is what happened, the package could not be sent because it opened (the seal) but thankfully it should now be underway in getting here. My next posts will either be a review of my book or calendar or the Basswood Herald newspaper.
