Advent 2024: Day Two: Mabel and Meredith

 

Mabel: We're M&Ms!
Meredith: Do you think we'll have to pay a royalty to the Mars Company?
Mabel: Hah!  They should be paying us!
Meredith: >Ha-ha!<

Meredith: This looks quite nice.  Can you see the door for today?
Mabel: Yes, it's just over there, near you.

Meredith: Oh, I see it! Right between the two houses.

Meredith: Oh my.
Mabel: What is it?
Meredith: I...have no idea.

Mabel: 'Oh my' is right.
Spread the pieces on the rug and we'll figure it out.

Mabel: Some sort of drill?
Meredith: Perhaps for ice fishing?

Mabel: But there's no pond or lake for fishing.
I guess we can put it next to the snowboarder.

Meredith: I don't know.  If an ice drill is in any way Christmassy,
I'll eat my bow!

Advent 2024: Day One: Chance Victor and Rachel

 Can it be?  It's that time again!  

As usual, we're using the Holly Belle-approved™ Lego City Advent Calendar.


Rachel: Hi, I'm Rachel.  I'm new.
Chance Victor: And I'm new, too!
Rachel: And we're both red heads.
Chance: Gingers Unite!
Rachel: >Tee-Hee<

Chance: Well, there's the '1' door.  
Would you like to do the honors?

Rachel: Why, thank you!
I wonder what the little figure will be?

Chance: Looks like there a number of pieces.
Although, I think it's a person--I see a little head.

Rachel: Watch out!  The head is rolling away!
Chance: Whoops!  Come back here, you.

Rachel: A snowboarder.  Isn't that clever?
Chance: I've got a snowboard, too.
Rachel: Now all we need is some snow!

And we're off!
