The party at the Fort was a fur trapper era events, meaning 1840's. I don't have any period-appropriate clothing that is warm- all my 1800's period clothing is PV, and it was really cold- so I went psuedo-historical. I wasn't accurate, but I was warm! And I was a big hit.

These pictures were taken in the lookout tower.



The Fort grounds, as seen from the tower, which by the way is now complete. I haven't seen it since they finished it!



The courtyard, with wreaths on all the doors!





The Christmas tree:


Another feature of the Fort that I haven't gotten to see completed and in use before is the fire place. It was a welcomed thing, I'll tell you!





Mom and Dad sitting on Santa's lap:



Wonder what mischief Dad is stirring up... Come to think of it, I don't want to know...

One fat man sitting on the lap of another...



This is the third time this year I've seen Santa. Wonder if he thinks I'm kissing up!
