I am including below a link to each of those posts, in case any one who is interested in this tradition missed out on reading about it last year.

Aisling,
I have just had a look at the Aussie doll. if you would like the music for the North Wind carol I can send it to you. It's a very pretty song.
I'll have a look at the other dolls later in the day.What a brilliant idea for your children.

Kate, I would absolutely love to receive the music for the North Wind carol! Thank you so much! I thought the lyrics were so pretty and they stuck with me after we had completed our study that year.
I'm so glad you stopped by!
hugs,
Aisling
Until I read your picture was in Chicago, I thought it looked Eastern European. I really like it.
Nan, Thank you. I loved the way the trumpets looked against that crisp blue sky each time I looked up, so had to snap that photo. I like how it turned out too. :)
