In our Christmas decorations we have those Christmas village pieces. Over the years Mom and Gran have managed to contract a lot. Well this year instead of doing a city type deal. She did a Homestead. :D

So here you have it the FIRST porcelain homestead :lol:

Here is like the eagle eye view, where you can see the cabin, the chicken coop, and the barn. It represents us in a way we live in cabin and have a chicken coop :p

Here is the lady of the farmstead milking the family cow near their cow barn. I envision myself doing such a task soon but without the dress :p :cool:

Here is the homestead's chicken coop complete with a wind mill for the family's electricity, not onyl do they get fresh eggs but electricity also. :D

Here is the man of the farm feeding the sheep, they plan on shearing them in the spring so she can start her sewing projects :p

I tell ya tho they can get very expensive. Some of those bigger pieces are in the $60s to $80s

I always shop Dec. 24 or the day after Christmas because they stick them at 60-70% off right away to move them.
boy I jump in and all some to my collection then!
