SNOW!!!

On Wednesday we had a big snow storm! I was pretty excited to have my first snow day!

I believe we got around 13 in. yesterday alone. I couldn't believe it! I don't remember a winter where we have had this much snow, or ever getting that much in one day!

Around mid afternoon I ventured out to take a few picture of the beauiful snow!

Amy greeted me on my way out!

She loved the snow!

Just a lot of snow!

Anna cleared the cars off for us!

Dad was aware that someone was throwing

snowballs at him:-)

Anna trying to protect herself as Grant tried to get her !

She did a wonderful job cleaning my car off!

Just a picture of the snow covered yard!

Curly Locks!

Anna has been wanting curls for quite a while now, and Wednesday night she got them!
I didn't know how long, or how many rollers she would need, because she has very thick and long hair. But we gave it a try, and were very happy with the results. We are planning on doing them again Saturday night. It took less then an hour to do, and they kept, and actually today she still has wavy hair! I think next time I will use a little more hairspray though as she has heavier hair then me.

I remember when I was younger putting curlers in my hair, but since I was doing it myself they weren't done in an orderly manner :-)I remember them going every which way and not making for a real comfortable night sleep! Though, even with it being uncomfortable, I thought it was worth it! So, I tried to have Anna's be all one layer, and hoped that she would be able to have as comfortable night sleep as curlers allow :-)

The New Look!

On Wednesday I went and got my hair permed! I haven't had my hair permed for over two years, and I think it will be a nice change for awhile. I was pretty excited to be able to wash my hair today, as you can't wash your hair for 48 hrs. after the perm.

My Grandma's Doll

When I got the doll her legs were peeling and her dress and bonnet needed fixing. She didn't have socks or shoes either, so I found someone that could fix her up. She was also missing one arm. I didn't think about taking before and after pictures, but since she was missing an arm and they replaced that, I have the old arm that I have taken a picture for the 'before and after!'



The Arm :-)




The finished product
The dress and bonnet are the original fabric just done over and added lace. As well as new bloomers, socks and shoes. I love the way she turned out!!!!

Pauline Mother of 4---


What is she doing nursing 6....


....Then 7?

Dad then put all 10 of them with her to nurse--but she didn't take that for too long! :-)
