More little trees. The elves were a Christmas present from a maternal aunt when I was a child.

  5. Agree--love the tiny trees!
    I did watch this and readily recognized the two main actors, priest and investigator. Maybe I have been watching too much British television--lol! This wasn't great, though. More interesting to watch the actors before they got into bigger hits. ;)
