Trish: Wow, after this weekend we won't have much left. I hope Dad brings more trees tonight.

Kurt: Trish, where are the lights for the trees in here???
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Kurt mumbling: There's a cord, okay off.
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Kurt: One down now for the other side.
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Kurt: We need more garden tools for the weekend. Got the last light.

Outside Kurt checks the shelves and makes a list.

Ms. Roberts is standing outside the partially closed garden center after leaving Vickie's.
BMR: Oh, I love this wreath. This will be the perfect gift for Madeline. She's been so nice to let me stay with her until my condo is ready. Young man, may I please purchase this wreath.

Trish: I'm sorry I didn't see you Ms. Roberts. Of course you can have this wreath.

BMR: May I have it delivered?
Trish: Certainly! I just write down your info and we will deliver first thing in the morning.
BMR: Perfect! Goodnight, there's my driver!

Joe: So, is this the one you want, Vick? It's pretty tall?
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Vickie: Well, I think so---? This is the one I asked Trish to hold all day.
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Trish: Hi, Vickie. I could have sold this tree 10 times today....I think we have two more at the farm.
Vickie: Well, thanks for saving it, maybe we should have it delivered?
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Joe: Nah, I can carry it, if you take the stand.
Trish: Well, happy decorating, and if you need more decorations --we still have some.
Vicky: I think we are okay----I'm going minimalist this year, lol, besides CAT likes anything sparkly.
barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Trish: Yes, I can't be alone here anymore---it's too busy, but just this weekend left and we will be sold out. Good night and thanks!!
Vickie: See you tomorrow!!!

Looks like your dolls are well into the Christmas spirit Sandi! ~Love~ those 3D mini metallic red trucks with bottle brush trees. Please don't tell me they were at Walmart and I missed them... I had a little wooden train in my hand at the thrift store yesterday, thought it would be cute under the tree, luckily I noticed it was missing a wheel. Yours looks cute under the sign:@) Merry Christmastime-Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Lynn. I think those trucks were dollar store last year or the year before. Crazy having to grab things in August or September and then they disappear. And generally on the mini's I buy mixed bags and repair what I can---and Frankenstein with the rest of it. Others go back as donations...I was surprised that the garden center ended up using all new from last year, because the box of last years was the last one I found, after the set up...so I'm really bad. Hugs, and have a Merry Christmas! Sandi
DeleteHow cute! Thanks so much for linking up at the Unlimited Link Party 64. Pinned and/or shared!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dee, for your visit and the party!
DeleteSandi, I am so late this year. But let me tell you, it is always a delight looking at each and every post. Your attention to detail is mesmerizing! I think I've said it before.....you would be such a cool person to have in my neighborhood!!! Hoping you had a wonderful Christmas and sending lots of dolly love and wishes for only the best in the New Year.
ReplyDeleteAwww....thank you! If I can ever leave the country---I may have to surface in Europe!!!Hugs, Sandi
