Christmas Village South

Our new living room features these odd cubby-shelves that are sort of difficult to decorate. They're too deep for books and anything else just gets swallowed up in the space. At the moment, tho, they are harboring my Christmas village because I had no where else to put it. A couple of the houses did not survive the move (I'm a poor packer), but luckily the skating rink is fine - it's my favorite.

There's been an apparent ruckus in Quigley's Tavern - the fiddler is laid out on the floor and Mrs. Quigley is not happy with him. Too much egg nog, I imagine.
