I realized this weekend that I never posted the photos of my dolls in the "snow" during the winter school break.  I know I have taken my dolls out into the real snow before, but this year, it was much easier (and warmer) to do the photos from inside.   I took the photos on a window sill of a big picture window.  This way I could get the photos so the dolls looked like they were outside. 

Here are a few.

Cecile and Bud taking a walk in the snow. 

Rachel making a snow angel. 

I will try to upload some more "springy" photos next weekend.  I can't believe how fast time has flown.  The end of our 3rd quarter is this Friday!  Can you believe how fast the school year has gone by?  It feels like just yesterday I was coming back from winter break.

Our weather here has been wonderful.  I am sure it is not to stay, but try to enjoy the nice weather (if you have nice weather) while it lasts,

Hello Everyone,
I can't believe I have not posted in over a month.  I have been busy and truly haven't had much time to dedicate towards photo-taking or posting.  I have so much to tell you and show you and I don't know if I should start present and work backwards or vise-versa.  Any ideas?

Before I go too far, I do want to take a moment to let everyone know that our house has not had any damage from the storms.  We were very lucky in the Cincinnati area.  Kentucky, and SE Indiana were unfortunately not so lucky (as you have heard I am sure).  I hope that those who lost loved ones, know that not everyone may be able to empathize with them, but that everyone does sympathize their family. 

Moving on to some more positive and upbeat things...  This week, I am going to show you some photos of some American Girl items that I recently got.   am going to show them to you slowly.  As always, feel free to email me photos of activities you have done with your dolls, or any of the doll accessories.  I would love to hear from you!

Here are some photos.

Here is everything in the box.  The fruit came in a little bag (and so did the beignets.  But I left everything in the bowl, and the beignets on the plate for convenience.  I took off the pineapple because the box would not close otherwise. :)

Here's the water pitcher and cups.  Aren't the designs beautiful?

Here is the fruit and the bowl.  I love how the fruit looks so real.

The food that you HAVE to eat if you go to New Orleans... Beignets!  I had them when I was there in 2007 at Cafe duMonde and I loved them. :)  The secret though is to get to Cafe duMonde EARLY because it get very crowded very early.

I apologzie again for not posting in the last month.  My life is so crazy this spring, and the weeks and weekends just truly fly by.  I will do my best to post weekly though for the remainder of the year.  We haven't had any snow days this year which is very unusual.  We have had snow 4 times, but 2 of the times it didn't stick on the ground. 

Follow me on twitter to find out if I have posted or will be posting.
