A TREE WAND THING!

The magic tree wand - wow, it actually has something to do with Christmas! Playmobil gets two points for that one, but loses two points because they've already given us another wand in a previous box. In fact, they've pretty much given us two of everything; I think they're trying to recreate the Noah's Ark story using lambs and Christmas decorations. In case you're curious, the boxes more towards the end of the month are 3-4 times larger than these boxes, so I expect at least a few surprises in the coming weeks. Maybe they'll give us two wands in the same box!

As much as I hate to admit it, the advent calendar is pretty fun. I can't believe I've resisted the temptation to open up all the boxes. I attribute that mainly to the fact that the toys all suck and I have no interest in seeing what other sucky toys I'm going to have to take pictures of on December 18th or 19th. I want to be happy for the holidays.


Now the two Mare Winninghams have adequate equipment to play 'London Bridges' with the lambs. Oh this is so much fun!
