Just a few more things about Wee Faerie Village! I just uploaded some more photos. One batch from a wonderful family who enjoyed the Village so much they sent us pictures. The others are from Josh, from Old Lyme High School. He took pictures of the students that did the voices of the faeries for the cell phone tour. They did such a great job! http://www.flickr.com/photos/florencegri
