Oh, hello!

As much as I want to be good a blogging, I'm terrible! I continually forget to post but do post photos on my Flickr.

I think I'll add this to my list of resolutions for 2013.

Anywho! Rosemary [pictured] and I thought we'd pop in to say hello and apologize.

Hope all is going well for you!

It's a cheap lens but for $12, I can't complain. :D Go amazon!

Aurora goes undercover in a strawberry Kenner wig and glasses to pick out an outfit.

She came with most of the clothes in the case, so...she gets first dibs.

To the antique malls we go!

Loving these cute new-to-us suitcases! :D

My mom and I went to some antique malls today. We found some beautiful Pyrex, a Love Me Linda doll, and three super cute Barbie suitcases.

Snowy day?

Florence was excited because it was snowing outside this morning.

By afternoon, it was all melted though.

Pardon the boring shot. I had to hurry down to sign papers and work on figuring out my new job. I've got a few interpreting assignments already. Woot!

[Yeah, not in the Valentine's Day spirit this year, sorry. :/]

Why is Eleanora so excited?

Well, I got the job. Not a job but the job I wanted. I sign papers tomorrow and I'll start working later this week or next week. I went to see the agency about mentoring with an interpreter. I had no hopes of being hired, just doing some mentoring...but I really impressed them!

I now am a freelance sign language interpreter for an interpreting agency.

EEPS!

Now this may sound silly but you have ti understand, I graduated in June of last year. Afterwards, I had a few interpreting gigs but not much because I couldn't do much...because I needed surgery. I finally had surgery in November and now it's working out. :D [Yes, I'm still working on my bachelor's in Sign Language Interpretation. in Ohio, You aren't required to have a degree to interpret. Sad but true.]

I can't believe it. They said I don't need mentoring and I'm ready to get out there and do it. I'm proud of myself and that doesn't happen often.

Kenley reads to Marigold and Iris.

We're all rather addicted to 'The Hunger Games' trilogy.

AKAD Challenge: Kenner & Hearts.

So, we got some snow. Before it could melt, I snapped a photo. Ohio has such weird weather.

Sittin' pretty and ready for Spring!

Francesca wouldn't go outside today. In her Spring outfit, she's convinced that if she wishes enough, Spring will come sooner!

Without snow, we're getting bored of the cold weather.

In her brightest outfit..

Adelaide has hair but alas, it's not attached. So, she gets first dibs on hats. She doesn't want to show her white cap off, that would be scandalous! ;]

A little behind...

Clarabelle is good at helping keep these middies in line. They've got some spunk.

I love the Middies and the Kenners. Total opposites but they're adorable. Variety is what makes for a fun and interesting bunch, I think. :]

But also, the Middies need more clothes. Seriously, their wardrobe is tiny. Given, so are they...

I've fallen a little behind in posting my photos here. Whoops! I'll be sure to do a few updates today to catch up. ;]

Meet Kenley!

After a lot of debate, Kenley just seems....right. I admit, i thought it would be funny to name a Kenner Blythe 'Kenneth' but Kenley seems a bit more fitting. :]

She needs lips and blush but she's coming along nicely, if I do say so myself. Her hair is in far better shape than I expected. Yay!

Lovely weather means outdoor photos!

Once I put a doll in an outfit, sometimes I got overboard with taking photos in that outfit until I think it really needs changed.

This is one of those times. She's rockin' it, so why change it up, y'know?

Also, I adore Kenner pinks. I just like pink too much, I think.

And on the last day of January...

Marion and I scored at Target tonight. We got this fantastic and brand new Missoni throw for $10.06! It originally retailed for $39.99 and was an online exclusive, so we were excited to find it, especially so cheap.

In which I remember that I actually have a blog...

I admit, I have a terrible tendency to forget this blog exists.

However, I think I can improve that a smidge. This year I'm taking the AKAD challenge What's AKAD mean, you ask? A Kenner A Day for the whole year. I've never done one of these before and failed last weeks 52 Week [yes, one photo a week] challenge. However, that was then, this is now. A lot has changed but the love for my dolls is definitely still there. :]

So I think from now on I'll try to share my daily photo on here, if not everyday, at least once a week. It's time to kick this blog into action!

I admit, today's photo is a bit boring. I tend to procrastinate and I've got some homework to do this evening, so Florence, my wispy bang redhead Kenner, is helping me out. ;]
