Papusi intre ani

These are this year's first dolls. Or last year's last dolls, I'm not sure. I had to finish them by December 31st, as I was meeting the "victim", Mircea, and his sneaky girlfriend, Laura, at the cabin for New Year's.
Acestea sunt primele papusi ale anului. Sau ultimele papusi ale anului trecut, nu-s sigura. A trebuit sa le termin pana in 31 decembrie, pentru ca urma sa ma intalnesc cu "victima", Mircea, si cu prietena lui, Laura, la cabana de Anul Nou.

Why sneaky? Because Mircea's birthday was only on the 6th of Jan, and we had to find a way to justify Laura leaving the cabin with a rather large and festively wrapped box in tow.
Dar a trebuit sa ne furisam, pentru ca ziua de nastere a lui Mircea era abia pe 6 ianuarie, si a trebuit sa gasim o cale de a justifica faptul ca Laura pleaca de la cabana cu o cutie mare si invelita frumos.

But the conspiracy was succesful, the surprise was unspoilt, and I hope my two new friends and their mini-me's will get along well.
Insa conspiratia a avut succes, surpriza n-a fost stricata si sper ca noii mei prieteni si sosiile lor in miniatura se vor intelege bine.

As these are meant to be travelling dolls, I'm looking forward to pictures of them in action!
Si avand in vedere ca acestea sunt papusi calatoare, abia astept sa vad poze cu ei in actiune!
