A Christmas Project.

Hello, Little one.

Just thought I would share something me and your Grandad Paul have been working on, it's kind of a surprise for Christmas but I don't see any harm in sharing it with you. So as you well know daddy is a pretty talented artist and is really good at making and painting things. Your Grandad asked me to help him with a Christmas project, you see grandad loves model trains and he wanted to make a snowy Christmas model for all the family to enjoy. This is where I come in as he needed my help to build and paint up model houses' train stations and even a little pub for his display. you can see them below at various stages as I put them together. They're not finished yet, we need to put them on the display and make them all festive with fake snow and everything. I will be sure to take lots of Photos of the finished model for you to enjoy.

It’s been really fun building and painting these models, I may have to help grandad do some more in the future, and it’s a great excuse to spend more time with your Grandad. Your special day is getting closer little one, perhaps there will be a few more surprises on here before it arrives. Take care.
