Everybody gathers at Vickie's closing time. 

Last Sunday...in the Chicago northside.

Zoe (in the Pink): Wow, it is really icy out here. 

Joe: I've got the icemelt, you all might as well go ahead and we will meet you to watch the game.

Jeffrey: We can't miss the game, it must be the second half already. 

Carly: Could you hold my hand and not worry about the Bears for a second!

Lara: Well, the streetlights went on already...honestly it is dark at 3:30 now. Let's get going.

Ian: I'll be along after I finish shoveling. Lara, you go ahead, it's already getting cold.

Vickie: These holiday hours are a killer, sorry we are so late, Joe.

Joe: No problem...when everyone leaves I'll salt the slippery spots.

Vickie: Just going to turn my sign around....

Eeek!...Whoops there's an ice spot now.

Joe: I'll always be here to catch you...I'd kiss you right now if we didn't have an audience.

Zoe: Be careful everyone---I'm going to stay and help Ian.

Ian: Just a little bit more shoveling and then we can go.

Zoe: At least I'm not wearing high-heeled boots. These are my Canadian boots, perfect for this weather.

Ian: Yea, I miss the California winters...lol. Just, a little rain now and then. Let's get to the house, I'm starving and I want to see the game.

Vickie's is all decorated for the holidays---now if the ice stays under control. But, Chicago weather is well, Chicago Weather! 

All dolls are vintage and rescues, except Lara. 

Her coat is Barbie 1994 International Travel with recent belt.

Vickie is wearing a vintage dress/vest with matching hat...very short for a dress so over leggings. *I can't find my reference on this.

Joe's in a suit from Mattel-'Enchanted'(Patrick Dempsey's character)

Zoe is in MTM Mountain climber boots, vintage leggings-unknown, and pink sweater ornament from Target this year.

Ian is in a very old Ken football shirt, and a Michael's last year ornament vest, recent Ken pants.

Jeffrey is in OLD vintage Ken---pants are corduroy, jacket brown flannel.

Carly is in unmarked coat, vintage Barbie zebra top, and Sparkle pants.

Exterior of Vickie's is foam core, brick paper, door is a picture frame, trees and bushes are all recent and wired with battery mini lights, stone bench is vintage, silver bench made from half a shadow box and painted with acrylics.

 Ground is silver poster board...and SNOWstuffing!

Happy Holidays from Vickie's Vintage.
