They want to say Merry Christmas to you..Ruby Tuesday




These little guys are part of our Christmas display, gathered over the years.


My favourites are the biggest one, for sheer garishness (he came filled with sweets, must be 12 years ago when the children were really small), and the one on the swing. He is still able to swing, though he's getting old- a bit like myself then.


The one second in from the right is Beleek china, a beautiful gift 2 years ago from a dear friend . He is supposed to hang on the tree, but I wouldn't dare, I would hate for him to get broken.

For more Ruby Tuesday pics, click on the link at the top of this page, which will take you to Mary's place. She's also having a giveaway!

I'll post the tree photos tomorrow, time allowing, but I know you all understand at this busy time of year.

  1. Oh, I love Santas. And snowmen - they're displayed in our bathroom! I think it's lovely to have special things to bring out every year. The memories are our Christmas treasures.

  2. What a great collection! I love the tall one as well. He is very unique.
    But the fact that Santa actually swings is so fun. My kids would have a riot with that one. But Santa would probably end up with a naked barbie on his lap. ;)
    Thanks for stopping by to visit today! I always love to see you!
    And thanks for playing along with my picture game. I will make sure to stop by and see what you've posted every day!

  9. The Santas are cute. I have some too from gifts over the years. Mostly made of cloth and big, but the little guys are neat.
