Barbieoldnewgreenredo

Girl Chorus: We are always good!

Barbieoldnewgreenredo

Foofie: (I'm certainly not making any promises)

Grumpy Cat:(Yep!)

Barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: I brought a new game to play after we eat!

Barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ken and Rob are invested in the Bears Game....who are already in the playoffs.

Barbie: Okay, make sure you clean up the table before playing your game.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: Fantastic, another Touchdown.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris and Barbie try to say goodbye to the guys....no luck

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Maybe we can get their attention through the window? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: If it wasn't so cold, I'd strip and try and to get their attention! 

Chris: They really are hopeless! 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

After class the girls head toward Vickie's Vintage.

Trish: Hi, ladies...anything I can help you with in the Flower shop or greenhouse?

Chris: Not today, I REALLY need some boots...wow, did you clear all the snow yourself.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Trish: It's not too bad, the concrete heats up and we haven't had that much snow this week. Good Luck shopping, Vickie's is always great. Don't forget Valentines' Day for your guys.

Barbie: Well, if you have some flowers shaped like footballs, I'll be back.

(chortling) 

Trish: My dad and brother are the same, can't pry them away from the tv this time of year.

 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Sis, are you going to look for anything...?

Barbie: Um, maybe some shoes for Chelsea, but it is hard if she's not here to try them on.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Barbie: I do have a coupon I could use????Hmm, lots of great things on this rack.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: This turquoise jacket is gorgeous.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Look at these Pink boots, I don't know which I like better?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I'll have to get some help!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: Well, two of these are your size...do you want to try them both?

Chris: Oh Yes, Please!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

These are perfect for shoveling the driveway. But, not really great for show or going out?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Vickie: These would be perfect at the mall, or the dance floor and in your size.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: Thanks for your help, I'll wear the galosh boots, can you wrap those up though, please.

Vickie: Of course, anything else we can show you?

Chris: No, I'm in enough trouble now.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Zoe from upstairs: Barbie, Chris, let's do lunch this week!

Girls: Sounds Good, stunning outfits up there!!!

Meanwhile back at Chris and Rob's home.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

So, Skipper it's your turn...you have to beat six flashes.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: Here goes!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Melissa: Keep Going!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Suddenly Grumpy cat reaches up and hits the keyboard 9 times in a row. 

The girls give up and go upstairs. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Grumpy Cat: (Sore loosers). 

Foofie: (I don't care, they left behind tasty sandwiches.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

White Cat: (Are you going to share a little?)

Grumpy Cat: (Hrumph...maybe a little.)

Misplaced Miscellaneous photos...from this year and my AA dolls.

Ad-Free Blog

Grand Intentions, or, I took photos for a reason and then didn't use them. I have lots of senior moments. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Remember the days when You were YOUNG...like pre-teen, and you all piled into a friends house and had an impromptu lunch...probably sandwiches and tomato soup...but it wasn't planned, and it was great.

Piles of kids clothes in the livingroom.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chelsea is hostess and next to her Auntie Chris.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Sister Barbie, friend Mellissa, Skipper and Scooter (cousins).

Not enough photos for a story---but still cute....don't know what I was thinking?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Portrait unnamed?

Random photo of my early TNT...don't know if I have shown her here before or not. I have quite a few pieces of clothes that were for TNT's...and I paired the vintage jeans with a new shirt..FAB! I think she is. She's lost a click in one leg, but that's it and is in very good condition otherwise. 

barbieooldnewgreenredo

I also worked on some new dolls. This is Rainbow...she has the crazy cheetah head on the side, but she is cute and well, we do have all kinds in my doll world and she is different.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Another new guy, Walter, or Walt. He has clicks, but will set him aside for maybe a new body. Bodies and faces from the past leave a lot to be desired, but he isn't too bad. Besides, the female to male ratio is definitely out of whack!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

This handsome dude has been named Mark---reminds me of someone from high school. He's one of the shorter GIJoes, so he will have have to find a short girl...lol. He may need a toe trim...as his feet are huge. otherwise, he is in excellent condition and fully articulated. Upside he will fit short slacks with the short legs.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I named the BTS doll on the left---BOWIE..someone messed with his hair for sure, then I added, and I may fool around with it more. This is the third one of the group I've found in his original suit for under $3.00 each. Rainbow, on the right, was new Extra doll and she will be fun to dress Hippie style...!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

This gal is going to be Cherilyn...been picking up these Extra dolls for under $12.00 here and there...which is cheaper than ordering MTMoves for bodies. But, I get them home and get charmed by their faces, not to mention the crazy clothes and long hair.

Cherilyn, will be repainted to CHER...I don't think it will take much, maybe some cheek shadow, and eyes/ deep dark red/brown lipstick. She will also have a hippie vibe, which will be a nice addition to my doll neighborhood. I can't wait to get her into some yellow bell bottoms! 

During Black history month, I decided to go through my dolls and eliminate duplicates and let some go. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Here are theAA's/Black dolls I'm keeping.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Some are duplicates, mostly because there is a mjor hair/ or makeup difference. 

Left to Right back row-Whitney, Kathryn, Shyla.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Zara, Dee-Dee, Carmel

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Cece, Jacquie, Carly

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Carly got cut off in the last photo.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Darla, Vanessa or Vanny (Jacquie's daughter), and Lanise(short hair)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I know these three gals are the 'same-ish' The first one is Marly---Carly's first cousin, the gal in the middle is Nikki---the original Nikki from  "In the Dreamhouse", so this is the only shot you will ever see them all together. Hair and makeup styles are different, Marly is streaked wiry hair and has eyelashes, Niki has very soft Dark hair, and Carly has an orange tinge to her medium brown locks. These girls are all fully articulated except for feet, which is fine.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Opal, who is Colette/Callie's nemesis cousin.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Of course, Colette and her mom, Ella. Both Divas and lots of fun to work with.

Added in My Black history post for the Billie Holliday special was Jennifer---loosely disguised as a Chicago local girl made really good in the music world.

She definitely put Colette's nose out of joint, which maybe good for future story fodder.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Jennifer....hmmm-mmmh! We will have to see more of her!

I have a few more dolls that are in the transition pile, needing bodies or may be leaving. I would love to find older AA's, or even repro's, and AA guys are even harder! 

That's all that was still lingering in my photos---and now they are neatly filed away and used.
