Anna and Heather say Happy Snow Day!

So I dashed outside yetserday for about 5 minutes for a quick photo shoot with Anna and Heather. (Anna is my mom's doll, by the way) They didn't turn out great because A. I was in a hurry and B. it was windy. But oh well.

Meet my new doll :-)

My Twinn (www.mytwinn.com) is having a big sale on their "Friend" dolls. They are pre-made My Twinn dolls...ones that look like the custom ones you can get but you don't design them...they come pre-made.
They've been 20% off, 30% off, 40% off and now 50% off. I just couldn't pass up the deal of a My Twinn doll for $40-$50. (The friend dolls are normally $80-$100, but a customized My Twinn doll is $150. So it's a pretty good deal to get one of these dolls for $40).
So here is the one I picked out:



I just bought her, so she won't be here for a week or so, plus I have to pay Mom before I can have her (Mom bought her, but I have to pay Mom before I can have her).
I'm really excited!

Sick and Snow

*sigh* I'm sick. I don't know where I got it, but I've got a stuffy/runny nose and my head's a bit sore. At least my sore throat went away. We were planning to go thrift shopping today...I'm glad it got moved to Thursday so I have two more days to get better. :-)

And I promised snow in the title so here it is...

Samaratin's Purse/Operation Christmas Child Get-together

My bible study group had a get-together to pack shoeboxes for OCC today. We also made cookie dough to freeze and save for Christmas time (which then we will bake the cookies)

Packing shoeboxes:



Pile on Gracie! Somehow, Gracie (she has a grey sweatshirt and glasses on so you can identify her in the picture) seems to be the first choice if we ever want to pile on top of anybody. I don't know why. I know it sounds crazy. But we are crazy, LOL! At least when we are all put together.


Baking cookies:

Cowgirl Skirt...take 2!

I had more cowboy fabric leftover from the other cowgirl skirt I made so I made another one...this one shorter and with a pocket.






I'm on a sewing spree right now because I cleaned up the craft room and now I feel more motivated to sew. :-) Some of the things I'm sewing are christmas presents, which I can post becaue the recievers of the presents might read my blog. :-)
