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.
