Merry Christmas!

I got this picture & many others at Jan's Graphics .

The Dolls' Christmas Reading

One day, Virginia's dolls were sitting in front of a fire.

A doll was reading A Christmas Carol.

"Marley was dead: to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The register of the burial was signed by th clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner.

Scrooge signed it: and Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change, for anything he chose to put his hand to. Old Marley was as dead as a doornail (one of our favorite quotes)."

Wait a second. Who is that reading?!

It's Rebbecca Rubin!

I bought Rebbecca Rubin with my birthday money. Thank you all!

That is a picture of her in her movie theater dress.

I don't think you were expecting this......I took her to Dawsonville (Georgia), and I took lots of pictures in the car.

We put up our Christmas Tree last night!

This is a picture of it bare.

With lights on, and 1 ornament.

Our tree with it all decorated, excaept for the star.

A Belated Thanksgiving Post

~Sorry!~

I forgot to post some of the pictures from Thanksgiving.

I didn't take any pictures at Papaw's house, but some in the Mountains.

Kirsten is included in some too!

We saw some snow on one side that the sun hadn't reflected on yet!

 We also saw Elks, if you zoom in, you can see them!

 My Brothers stood between North Carolina & Tennessee.........

... and so did Kirsten!

The Smokey Mountains are so beautiful!

Can you see the fog in the middle?

We drove through there.

I'm sorry I didn't post more!

I'll try to do better at Christmas!

Lottie's Photoshoot

Lottie's Photoshoot didn't turn out so well. I guess I should stick to Dolls eh?

This is my best one. James Martin took all my pictures.

Well, Lottie & I saw something we didn't expect.....

....The dog next door!

 Lottie had a fun time barking and sniffing "Flint".

Lottie & I had a GREAT time today.

Elsie & Millie's New Hair-do's !

HI! Last night I rolled Elsie's hair & fixed Millie's hair. When you curl her hair, just lightly mist her hair with a spray bottle and water. And put the curlers in cool.

Elsie right after I took out the curlers. Front and back.

These pictures are of Elisie dressed and hair combed.

I don't have any before pictures but here are one from the front and from the back.

Thanksgiving is on It's Way!!!

Today, We have been working on our Thanksgiving decorations. Almost all of our decorations are from Cracker Barrel! :-) Mama & Daddy bought these over the years. The pumpkin on the far right was a gift from our friend Mrs. Winnie at church.

"I Ate to Much!"

"I ate too much turkey,

I ate too much corn,

I ate too much pudding and pie,

I'm stuffed up with muffins

and much too much stuffin',

I'm probably going to die.

I piled up my plate

and I ate and I ate,

but I wish I had known when to stop,

for I'm so crammed with yams,

sauces, gravies, and jams

that my buttons are starting to pop.

I'm full of tomatoes

and french fried potatoes,

my stomach is swollen and sore,

but there's still some dessert,

so I guess it won't hurt

if I eat just a little bit more."

- Jack Prelutsky, I Ate Too Much

Happy Halloween!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

For Halloween I was Nancy Drew, James Martin was Spider-Man, and John Thomas-James Harriet.

Below, I'll show some pictures of us.

We went to Truett (McConnell), and they had Smores, Trick or Treating in the dorms, and a Cardboard-Box Maze! We had to crawl through cardboard boxes, I almost lost my hat!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
