My Favorite Winter Scenes

The Ice Skaters

I was into crocheting ice skating outfits last year.

This meant an ice skating scene of course!

One of my favorite outfits.

Mary Hoyer dolls were created to model
crochet and knit outfits.

This is an image from a 1950s
Mary Hoyer knitting pattern.








Winter Camping

Winter camping takes place at the Ice Skating Pond.
Up in the San Bernardino Mountains.
(all pretend of course)

The original cardboard camper.

The second version wood camper.

Most recently the Honeymoon camper!

Merry Christmas

A Christmas Wedding

Tom and Lauren got engaged this past June.
Everyone was very excited!

Not long after, Tom graduated from college
with honors in pre-med.

Lauren! You won't believe this!
I got into Medical School!!
Oh Tom! I'm so proud of you! 

I'm afraid I have to go in a few weeks...
And it's in Massachusetts..

Oh no, Tom! That's too far away!
I can't stand being separated
until you finish school!

I know Lauren, we'll think of something.

LATER THAT FALL


Hello? Lauren is that you?

It's me Tom!
I miss you so much!

Me too Darling, but listen, I don't have a lot of time.
I wanted to talk to you about when I'm home
for the Holidays.  Remember what you said
 over the summer about this winter?

Oh Tom, I would love that!
I'll have to work fast, but
let's do it! Remember
let's make it a surprise.

One Month Later

Why are we driving Tom's Van to Big Bear?
And why are we dressed like Christmas Carolers?

We know as much as you do girls.

All we know is that Tom and Lauren needed the station wagon
and they left early this morning.

Jon! Did you see the mountains today?
Can Tom's van even drive in the snow?

Of course it can! Beside I'll be driving.
So, let's go girls, we don't want to be late!

Oh boy just look at that view!!

OH! Be careful Jon, it's really starting to snow!
Don't worry girls, I'm a great driver.

Boy, it's really coming down now!
We're almost there.
It looks like we're heading to our
ice skating pond!

It is our pond! Are we skating?
There's the trailer, but where are Tom and Lauren?

There's Tom!

So, Tom, are we walking to carol from here?
Where not caroling.
Can you just come over here with me?

GASP! Oh my, is this...?
It's a WEDDING!
Oh, she's so beautiful! 

I Thomas, take you Lauren...
But! (hush Julia)

I Lauren, take you Thomas...
But? (hush Amanda)

For better or worse,
Richer or poorer,
Til death do us part.

What just happened? Is it real?
Oh yes, we actually got married this
morning by a judge, but Lauren
wanted to surprise you all!

It's my Winter Wedding!
We are having a wedding dinner
at Big Bear Lodge, so let's get out
of the cold!

CONGRATULATIONS 
LAUREN and TOM!!

So, where's the honeymoon?
A little place we love.

Tom, this has been the perfect day.
I agree, my wife!
I like the sound of that.
Me too Tom.
