Let's get this dollie party started!!
Today 3 of the crew got a trip to the library, where it was such a slow day that in between patrons (all 4 of them) "work" consisted of a wee bit of shelf reading and a bunch of photos, accompanied by Hawaiian Christmas music. ( Best version of this song ever )
Princi doesn't have a big photo portfolio, so she got to go. Plus she matched the blue & silver tree.
And Aloalo, because her pix on this tree from last year (with better light) got lost in the Great Laptop Crash of 2020
Look who else got to go! We haven't seen Danbo this year but he's still around.
We switched trees...

Thanks for looking! Stay tuned for the minis' party at home

YAY for fun library Christmas tree photos!
YAY for slow days at work!
YAY for Hawaiian-style Christmas music!
And DOUBLE-YAY for libraries that are still open!
Our stupid library in podunk nowhereseville is closed because of You Know What... even though, as I've mentioned before, it's probably the most socially distanced place in town. I'm guessing four patrons would be a normal day at the library here.
Apparently you no longer have any self-consciousness at all about taking multiple dollies to work with you!
It looks like you have put together some lovely holiday decorations at the library. At least you and your dolly friends get to enjoy them.
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

Doll party at library sounds marvelous!
Our libraries started making e-books of some Czech titles and offering them online, like Project Gutenberg, but with Czech books. I don't like everything being closed (especially since only about 3% of our cases come from places like shops or libraries, most people catch the virus at work or at home, so we're needlessly killing the economy), but seeing how various places find creative ways to deal with the situation is nice.

Got to have a pre party and the library sounds like the perfect place for it.

So much mini Christmas adorableness! And it's always lovely to see Danbo again. For someone with a very basic face, I find him to be so e ressive!
My local library reopened in... May? June?... and has thus far managed to stay opened, thank goodness. This year would have been *much* worse without regular access to new reading material...

Yep, I missed going to the library in the spring, which was why I re-embarked on all the "X-Wing" books and a re-watch of Farscape -- double YAY!
It is quite fun to see how Danbo photographers put them in so many different settings and convey lots of emotion with just the tilt of the head or the pose.
I suppose lack of federal or state oversight would make it hard for libraries to develop operating policies these days. We're part of the provincial education dept., so, policies out the wazoo. Some make sense, some are just make-work.
I can't take any credit for the lovely trees -- one of the full-timers decorated them. And nope, no worries about taking dolls there. The 2 full-timers have heard lots of doll chatter & seen several visits; and I don't really care about the current student worker's opinion. Besides, I was the only one there after the morning-shift-filler-in-er left
Mini party warmin' up ...
I think Princi was inspired by the pretty trees she saw.
Sunsette & Crystal, queens of the party, preside over the festivities again this year.
Of course some of the presents for this nautical crew come by boat...
...uh, guys... we forgot Kumu on top of the tree. We gon' have to do the whole group shot again...???

Awesome!
I'd love to shrink for a bit, and party with them (maybe together with my Lil' Fairies)!

Thanks, all! Yes, I'd love to be that little and go play with them too
The big girls are being lazy and not doing a holiday shoot (at least right now) but they did get dressed up for Christmas. Bad-snapshot time:
Even Jake has entered the spirit of the season...
Suurrre, you can bring me presents any time
First, a re-shoot of the trio by the water because Santa comes by boat
Marilyn, Roxann and Darla.
Princi & Alo doing some decorating.
Ika & Rachel.
Ika & Penny, with little friends.
Aloalo, Miki, Pam & Alice.
Everyone gathers around the Queens of the Party.
Party on, wee sisters.
Mele Kalikimaka, everyone! Thanks for sharing PTFCo's adventures through another year.

I am impressed that you redress most, or at least many, of your dolly friends for the holidays!
Jake cuts quite a dashing figure in his stylish scarf!
The lighting effects you achieve in your snow scenes are adorable! The little animals hidden in the snow are a fun touch!
Sharing in PTFCo's adventures is an online highlight of every year... and I am looking forward to another year of adventures! Oh, and also, to putting up the 2021 PTFCo calendar!

So festive and fun! Everyone looks like they're having a lovely time! Meanwhile, the big girls look a little envious that they weren't invited
Merry Christmas!

Jake looks particularly fetching in his Santa hat
Looking forward to 2021 and more adventures! And like davidd, putting up the calendar in a week.
