Hey Martin, where are we?

Why Mary turn around and have a look. Don't get so close to the edge Martin. It looks like a long way down.
Don't worry Mary, I have my good shoes on.
AAAaaahhh this sure is a lovely view Martin. Just look at how blue the sky is and this huge Canyon sure looks Grand.
But where are we Martin?

Why Mary, we live so close to here now. It was worth being in that box for almost a year to get here. The air seems cleaner, the people are much nicer and there is lots to do in Arizona. Where do you think we will go next Martin? Gee Mary we can just about walk to Sedona so let's enjoy this for a while and then go do more exploring.

The Toxic Goat and his Christmas House

The Toxic Goat would like to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas.

The poor but happy Goat is so old his coat glows in the dark and is from the days when toxic things were used to paint cast goats. The goat does love his little house though.

(House is antique, German and in fair to good condition.)
Mary and Martin would also like to wish you a Very Merry Christmas.
They are reflecting upon glorious memories and are filled with gratitude. They are living in the moment enjoying some peace, serenity and are about to rip open each others Christmas gift.


All the Lundby Peeps want to wish you a Very Merry Christmas.

Photo below is of my curiou cabinet that has four glass shelves with a mirror in the back. The mirror and glass made it very difficult to take photos. The photo below is from the top of the cabinet looking down at all four shelves. Each shelf has a different miniature Xmas scene.

Each scene has little dolls that want to wish you all a

VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

A LUNDBY Wedding

The Happy Couple.

Now hubby and I were spiritually married long ago.

We finally decided to make it legal.

It was a great way to allow some elder relatives to have the time

of their life planning and preparing. Happy Summer Everybody.

Lundby Dolls go to the IMAX Theater

The Lundby Dolls wanted to see the Big Game close up so they bought tickets to see it at the IMAX theater. They got great seats and the game is about to start.

Wonder who they are rooting for.

Here's the opening kick off. Go Team Go!


This team sure looks smart.

Look at that guy go. YEAH!!!!

Well , now we know who they all like. That's their Super Hero.
The thrower guy. He sure is a handsome lad.

Martin decides to buy t-shirts for everybody.

Credits: Lundby IMAX theater consists of four Brinca Dada chairs and one big TV. Dolls are of course Lundby. Winning team is the Green Bay Packers of Green Bay Wisconsin. Go Pack Go!

The Party Continues & The Large Christmas Tree

Yes, The party continues. All the peeps are full.

Some are rubbing there tummies because they all ate so much.

That Martin sure is a good cook. The girls are on the roof top playing with dolls.

Nickie is closing in.

These are all the house warming gifts Mary and Martin received.

They didn't expect anything but are very grateful because they can use everything.

The gang is gathered downstairs sitting comfortably and Martin is telling Cooking Stories.

They all laugh when he tells them about how he forget the sugar in the apple pies for 1,000 men.

The Fjelde's are the last party goers to leave and while outside saying good bye sure enough here come Verna and Arlene along with husbands Bob and Cal. The girls were determined to show up. Cal proudly announces the gift of the large living Xmas Tree. Mary and Martin are clueless as to what they'll do with it but are gracious and says "Thanks". Verna is wiggling her way in and wants to see the house. Mary says "Oh if you'd like to come in we have lots of dishes to be done." Verna replies that they were just stopping by to deliver the tree. And so it goes on Lundby Lane. Just another day for the peeps and their amazing adventures in their very small world.

Notes: All little peeps are based on real life characters mostly. Doing dishes is based on real life also.

**************************************************************

"Letter to Cal and Arlene"

Dear Uncle Cal and Aunt Arlene, I hope you enjoy seeing yourselves as dolls. Just like the real dolls you actually are. Arlene you are the blonde and Verna has the darker hair. Uncle Cal, you & Bob look so much alike. All last names have been changed to Flagg to protect the innocent. Happy Thanksgiving! We love you guys! Smooch, Jim and Amy

Party at Mary & Martin's New Stockholm House

Martin and Mary are in their new kitchen discussing the party tomorrow. Martin tells Mary about all the food he ordered that will be delivered. Right now Martin is making breakfast and is so flabergasted and excited by the new swivel faucet.

The guests arrive. Ann Marie brought a grocery bag full of Trader Joe goodies. The mom & the dad from the new Orphanage on Lundy lane have arrived also.

The Nanny from the orphanage is examining the new pink and blue bath room.


Grandma arrived and tried out the Swedish Tempurpedic bed and fell asleep instantly.


Nickie is reaching his hand out to meet one of the girls that lives at the Orphanage.

Martin is cooking up some steaks and enjoys all the friends being over. Evil baby is being rocked on the swing by his father Vinnie and this is soothing so he is behaving for a nice change. Gustav seems totally bored with the gal he is sitting with.

Erik and Marta Fjelde are sitting with their daughter Signe and just love the new house. They also just love their new house as Mary & Martin sold them their old Stockholm mansion. New on Lundby Lane is a new addition to the Fjelde Family. Yes, a baby. His name is Baby Jimmy. Millie is baby sitting right now so Marta and Erik could come to the party.

And the party continues...
And the story will continue...

Above is an overall photo of the house.

What fun I am having and what fun I will continue to have.

What's for Dinner?

Martin is looking everywhere for his Hot Sauce to go with the pizza he just pulled out of the oven.

He calls upstairs to let Mary know that dinner is ready.

Mary is very busy eating her chocolate ice cream cone in her posh princess sitting room and exclaims that she is not hungry.

Martin maneuvers to the bottom of the stairs to tell Mary he made chocolate cake for dessert.

Mary quickly finishes her ice cream and joins Martin. She again tells Martin that she is not very hungry for pizza but will gladly try the chocolate cake.

The Estate Sale

Martin and Mary take the wagon and head over to an Estate Sale advertised as HUGE.

Mary comments to Martin that she thought HUGE would mean a lot of items.

Martin tells Mary that the word HUGE actually means LARGE.


Martin checks out an old German thermometer while Mary is inspecting a brass key holder.

Martin and Martin make their way into the jewelry room. Mary sure loves all the vintage jewelry.

Closer up Mary asks Martin if "The Incredible Shrinking Machine" is working."
She would like him to shrink some items for her.

Mary checks her box of money and continues to look around for some special items.

HAPPY MOTHER'S Day!!!


Credits: My mom passed earlier this year. She had collected for many years. The photos above are of the Estate Sale that is being set up. My little peeps have found many useful tiny treasures. The big beeps (hubby and I) have also found many treasures that we are keeping.

Big Flowers

Gee Martin these flowers are so big and they make my hair smell so nice. Happy Spring!
