So we’re up to day 13 now, and excitement is building as we’re getting closer to Christmas – and summer holidays with only five school days left.
Strangely enough for a snow scene, Lego Friends today produced an ice-cream stall! Complete with mistletoe, two ice-creams and some money, Miss five enjoyed building the stall.
Updated to admit they were cupcakes not ice-creams on day 13, so it was a cupcake stall which makes more sense to me! It also means there were cupcakes sitting on the stall which also makes more sense than ice-creams pre-served like that.
Does anyone really eat ice-creams while skiing and skating?
My son, on the other hand, got a robber with a crowbar and two hundred dollars in a sack. Don’t get me wrong, my son was happy enough finding that, but it doesn’t feel very Christmassy!
Let’s hope he doesn’t steal the Christmas tree or presents!
If you missed what the calendars gave us yesterday, you can catch up on day twelve. Read the introduction to our Lego advent reviews for the whole picture.
I know you’ve mentioned it was a bit odd to have an ice cream stall in a snow scene, but I’ve always found myself attracted to cold treats when it is cold. I’m not sure if the temperature of the treat is higher than the temperature outdoors, but they always seem to warm me up. Or it could be a cool down treat after ice-skating. 😉
The robber definitely appears out of place, but still looks really cool! Hope the kids enjoy their last few days of school!
I agree with you. There are a lot of odd staff. Some are even unnoticeable at first. All in all, it is a perfect creation and i must admit that i have a liking attitude towards it.
Don’t get me wrong, Ellyjude, I like the calendar, too, and my son didn’t see anything unusual about the robber being in there 🙂
Hi Ali, interesting that you like ice-creams in winter 🙂 And cooling down after ice-skating makes sense – I just do so little of it that doesn’t occur to me (we can only ice-skate on manufactured links in Australia).
But I have to confess that we were wrong – I think it was actually a cupcake stall rather than ice-creams! It was only after we got the oven and the big cake that I realised they probably weren’t ice-creams at all!
Last day of school today and the kids are out of uniform and enjoying ‘crazy hair day’ so it’s all good. thanks!
