| Sophie is excited about her new house! |
It was a good thing that I sold that dollhouse, because I received two surprise dollhouses for Christmas. The first one was one of those Quickbuild Imagination House dollhouses that were sold in the U.S. at Home Depot during the holiday season. It's a simplified version of the Vermont Farmhouse, Jr. by Real Good Toys. It's going to be fun, because I'll be able to get to the decorating phase quickly! My husband gave it to me and promised to help me build it--yay! Sophie the bear is going to have her own house soon!

The other surprise dollhouse was an extra-large 1960's tin dollhouse given to me by my father. Yes, the "Dad" of "Dad's Dollhouse" found me a gorgeous vintage dollhouse! I was very touched by his thoughtfulness. Mavis mouse has inspected the tin dollhouse kitchen and says it's a keeper:

Now, I'd like to acknowledge three more special bloggers. In my last post, I held a giveaway for six prizes for some of this blog's top commenting followers. After the giveaway, when I was looking at my followers from the earliest days, I noticed three special bloggers who have been here from almost the very beginning who still leave very frequent comments, even to this day! Those three special bloggers, who did not win the recent giveaway, are Anna, Drora, and Carmen. I'm sending them each a special prize too, just to say "thank you."
Thank you to all of you who visit my blog, leave comments, and provide moral support. Each of your contributions is special to me, and I'm really grateful to all of you. On Saturday I'll announce my big giveaway. It's celebration time! Until then, keep it fun! xoxo Jennifer
