You built this entire thing for the raffle? Wow, I'm impressed. Could've saved it for the Winter Village contest (that seems to be coming late this year)  

Thank you! My girlfriend and I bought the Winter Village Post Office a few months ago, completing the Winter Village series for us, so we've decided we need to do lots of MOCs if we want it to keep growing. This raffle was a good justification/excuse to try one out, haha. If there is a Winter Village contest this year, I have lots more ideas :)

You know the coolest part about snow is: 

You can walk behind your friend, hit the tree branches above, and drop the snow all over him ......

But I guess it won't be that fun if you do it to Batman ......

Thanks CopMike for another great Christmas Raffle !

My ideal snow ... my eldest son after a snowball fight (it's usually the other way around).

I don't know about "ideal",  but this is my take on "snow". Hopefully I can attack this winter's snow with the same enthusiasm as Emmet...

When I think of snow I think of it from a writer's point of view: the sentimentality of childhood memories, spending Christmastime with family, children's faces lighting up when walking by festive store windows, footpaths covered in a coating of snow, a joyous season to appreciate and reflect on all the good the year has brought. 

To sum it all up, when I think of snow I think of the joy and the magic it brings to the world. (Hence why Dr. Strange is in the pic) :P

***Please excuse the bad photo quality - thankfully this is only a raffle and not a contest based on quality of the photo and build

My tiny train in the snow.

Like a musical box the train rotates with a mechanism.

My ideal use of snow was always making snow forts with friends.

Here's a way I get to enjoy snow all year round. With a snow dome!

Thank for running this contest again, I know it's a lot of work.  I love it every year!
 

When I think of "snow" I think of watching "The Empire Strikes Back" as a kid and all the scenes on Hoth.  Here's kinder, gentler take on it- the Snowball Battle of Hoth, featuring Boba Fett (in winter gear) sneaking up on the rebel barricade as an imperial officer takes a snowball to the face, knocking his helmet off.

Thank you for hosting this again this year, Mike! Been busy lately but going to take the time out to make an LDD entry soon. This raffle is great. I remember my first year on the forums, I entered and won some LOTR figures, and was able to give them to my mother and share my enjoyment of LEGO with her. Thank you for your continual generosity and kindness.

Lovely, Blue Wren!
Would you mind enlightening me on the part you used for the left-most tree on the back wall. It does not look familiar to me.

Keep clicking those bricks together!

I always started rolling the snowman too far away from where I wanted it to stand, so the final stretch would get quite difficult...
