Happy Birthday to Richard and Foxie

Supporter Dawn Killen-Courtney has sponsored today in joint celebration of two very special birthdays: Foxie’s, which we celebrated in grand style a few days ago (see video of the party here), and Dawn’s husband Richard’s, which is today. Dawn and Foxie happen to have a lot in common: they’re both troll doll aficionados! Dawn’s even written books about trolls.  While many of our supporters learn a lot about trolls after learning of Foxie’s love for them, it happened the other way around for Dawn.  It was discovering that a chimpanzee shared her passion that led Dawn to CSNW.  We (and Foxie) are so glad you found us, Dawn.

Here’s Foxie loving on one of her new trolls at her party:

A very happy birthday to Foxie and Richard from Dawn!

    Richard is tickled and is showing many people he works with! A very unique birthday gift for him, and some help for the chimps — what a win/win!

    Go Foxie! Trolls Forever!

      Definitely a win/win (and maybe another win for the continued market of Troll dolls :). Thanks, Dawn!
