So after building the Day 24 models from Advent and Christmas Build-Up I was disappointed that my sleigh only had one reindeer…. so I dug parts out of my collection and built eight more, and devised a way to hitch them all together, and put Santa Claus from the Advent City calendar in the sleigh along with the gifts from the Christmas Build-Up model.

Advent 2016 Day 24
Merry Christmas! It’s December 24th, the last day of the Advent Calendars, and Christmas Eve. Our final entries are Santa Claus (City), a baby polar bear stalking a fish (Friends), and Snowbacca (Star Wars). The final model from Christmas Build-Up is also Santa Claus, with an assortment of gifts. I built a sleigh and Rudolph with the leftover parts.
Advent 2016 Day 23
Day 23 of the Advent calendars – just one more to go – gives us two sleighs (City and Star Wars) and a snowman (Friends). For Christmas Build Up, I realized today I screwed up a week ago and each model since the 14th has been off by one day! So today I made up for it by building Day 14, and then used leftovers to build a MOC of a kid on a sled.
Kangaroo and Joey
My latest LEGO creation is a grey kangaroo with joey.
Advent 2016 Day 22
Today is Day 22 and we get a dog and its feed trough (City), a table (City), an Imperial Shuttle (Star Wars), and a snowman (Build-Up). With the leftover parts I built a green lizard.
Advent 2016 Day 21
Happy Winter Solstice everyone! Day 21 gives us a Christmas Tree (City), something weird (Friends), a stormtrooper (Star Wars), and two little birds (Christmas Build Up). I built a larger bird with the leftover parts.
Advent 2016 Day 20
Day 20 is here already! Today we get gifts from City, a BBQ from Friends, a speeder bike from Star Wars, and a sleighload of gifts from Christmas Build Up. I used leftover parts to build a little black kitten.
Advent 2016 Day 19
On Day 19, we open up the Advent calendars to find an oven (City), a record player (Friends), and Luke Skywalker in black (Star Wars). The Christmas Build-Up model for today is a cute dragon, and I built a biplane with leftover parts.
Advent 2016 Day 18
Day 18 is 75% of the way to Christmas! Have you done all your shopping? Anyway today City gives us a cookie baking firefighter, Friends gives us a Christmas tree, Star Wars gives us a nanoscale model of Jabba’s Palace, and the Build Up model is a micro scale van. I used leftover parts to make a bunny wabbit.
Advent 2016 Day 17
The 17th day of the Advent calendars gives us a kiosk (City), a couple of gifts (Friends), and a walking droid (Star Wars). In Christmas Build Up we get… I have no idea. But I built a wishing well with leftover parts from it.
