It is December 21st, Prima's birthday, and the Doll House is buzzing with activity getting ready for her party tonight.

Image
Everyone lends a helping hand because there is so much to do to get ready.

Image
Even Bonnie and Alice help out.

Image
Niki and Umka bring the tree in.

Image
Marie and Lucette clean up.

Image
When muscle is needed to move the furniture, the boys step up.

Capri: Prima, are you okay? You seem kind of stressed.
Prima: It's just that there is so much to do to get ready for tonight and....

Prima: Look what I've done now! Another mess to clean up!

Meanwhile, in the Doll House, the work gets done.....

Image
The kitchen is cleaner than it has ever been.

Image
The bed is made and the room tidied up.

Image
Toys and books neatly put away.

Image
Gifts wrapped and ready to put under the tree.

Image
Niki and Umka take a break outside for a little refreshment.

Image
Alice and Bonnie find the Christmas ornaments.

Image

Image
Alice is fascinated with sparkly things....

Image
The tree gets decorated, thanks to Bonnie and Alice.

Image
And Bonnie wonders if maybe she should not have been quite so naughty during the year.

Image
The table is laden with treats.

Image
The record player is loaded, and the Samovar is ready for making tea.

Image
The bar is fully stocked!

Image
And for those who might need coffee later on... that's ready on the stove!

Image
Everything is finally ready.

Image
Marie takes a moment to rest.

Image
The girls are dressed in their Christmas outfits.

Image
Umka: Where is Prima?
Capri: I took her outside for some fresh air.

Image
And now all we do is wait....

Image

Image
Bonnie: When is our company getting here?
Umka: Soon, Bonnie. Very soon!

Image
Niki: Where is Prima, anyway?

*squee* This is so wonderful! I love the attention to detail (and all the props to make those details so great.) You always write the most heartwarming stories. <3
