I had the best treat ever... an evening out with my husband to a Christmas Village Museum! I was going to post loads of pictures, but as it is only 4 more sleeps until Christmas, I just don't have the time that it takes to get all the pictures uploaded - but I can quickly share a few!
I just loved the Old Schoolhouse... I could have honestly stayed here for the rest of the night! It smelled just like my old one room school house when I was young - I know that I'm not that old, but I still remember my wet, red woollen stockings hanging over the black stove pipe, getting dry while I worked away on my printing at my desk.
After the curator had finished speaking, I asked her if I would be able to step over the rope and actually sit at the teachers desk. She asked if I was a teacher, and when I said that I taught inductive Bible study, she motioned me towards the desk to sit down, then slowly opened the drawer and took out the Bible and laid it on the desk in front of me saying wistfully, "Teachers used to always begin each school day with Bible reading and prayer... "
As we walked through the village, it was the Carousel that next caught my husband's eye!
Although, judging by this picture, he may have begun to have second thoughts!
It was so much fun!
I highly recommend a carousel ride as amazingly good for everyone!
What a lovely way to spend an evening with my husband.
