Bing Crosby as Bob Wallace White Christmas Doll
Have a little acknowledgement to make: I had never watched the movie 'White Christmas' until Nat and I were married and we were buying our own Christmas trees. Was never on my radar. But, in what has become a pretty strong holiday tradition, Nat puts this movie on our tv on 'Christmas tree Day' and we watch it as we bring the tree in the house, set it up in the stand and trim it together. Welp...we usually don't trim it that much that first night - rather we prefer to let the branches fall/settle and then put most of the ornaments on the next night. So, that's where this dollie comes in. You can see him above that Bing Crosby as "Bob Wallace". Funny isn't it? But this is what the Babe came home with from the Pre-Christmas train show . She saw it on one of the tables, liked it, then looked around for another hour or so and decided that she wanted it. So we went back. I always try to make the kids do their own haggling in situ...
