Chris,Rob, and the Kids' Winter plans


Chris: I almost have all the decorations down. I suppose this one tree won't matter if we make sure the lights are off.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I really like this tree...here...should I leave it up all YEAR long?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: I don't think so Mom. It would look icky with Easter Bunnies on it.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Grumpy: I just want them to leave so I can demolish that cake thing on the table.


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Scooter: Shamrocks wouldn 't look so bad. Will the kitties be okay when we are gone?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Puss: Hoomans gone....what?????

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: They'll be fine. Auntie Barbie is right next door and they will love having the whole place to themselves. Is everyone packed?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

We need to leave for the airport by 9:00 PM for the red-eye to LA.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

(The stockings are gone---but the fire is cozy.)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

The girls in unison: We're packed and everything is a go-!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Scooter: I brought two swimsuits will it be warm in California?

Rob: Grandma and Garmpa have a heated pool, so yes...it will be warm enough.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

(Decorations still Up, but wash is done)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: I'm packed, I'm hoping to buy some new clothes in LA. People dress so dreary here.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: Your closet is always full...!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Chris: We've been here almost six years, and I haven't adjusted yet...can't wait for sun!


barbieoldnewgreenredo

Rob: How about one more Christmas photo here:

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Skipper: But, what about the kitties????

barbieoldnewgreenredo

It's really hard to get them to all be still.

BMR says she is finally DONE!

Ad-Free Blog

Golly it's the Holiday Season in full swing! 

Barbara M Robberts says she is DONE, but I'm not done with anything! 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

That's quite a list she has----I'd be drinking wine and eating all the cookies if was finished!

Apologies to my readers for dropping the ball in the middle of the Fall season---we have so many story ends drifting in the air. Sometimes LIFE swallows you and doing what you enjoy gets put to the wayside. I'm working on transferring to a new comp---we have been loading the new one and hopefully will be able to function at full speed, and hang on to a browser that doesn't freeze and that works. 

THE WORST THING---I have had a terrible time loading other people's blogs...and commenting is a no go---or hit and miss. ADS---have been a nightmare and if the new Mac can't negotiate ads on people's blogs, I will be leaving them, permanently.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I've always planned on BMR to have a gold and white apartment---this is just a quick set up for a holiday photo shoot! It was fun---and I used stuff I already had, and snitched some from other rooms.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

BMR: My list is long, with all the employees of BMR Ltd, and those who are so helpful in all my projects and ventures. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

BMR: Richelle has been working hard on my penthouse in the GrandView, Ian takes care of the photos for all the promotional materials, Vanny is a great assistant for Lara...well also all my nieces and their families. Golly, I'm really glad I have everything wrapped, finally!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

BMR: Richelle found this wonderful gold table (frame on a tea light base) and our lamp we had made a while back (directions DOLL LAMPS HERE).

barbieoldnewgreenredo

BMR: I'm going to love this wall paper when the paneling is finished here in the apartment.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

BMR: Loving my traditional tree, I borrowed from Barbie and Ken's home.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Packages everywhere....

barbieoldnewgreenredo

I love all the bright colors and bows, it's so festive.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

For Lara, 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

For Chelsea, 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

For Scooter, and Russell...he has been a godsend working on the mess over at Vickie's and Trish's----!

Well one more glass of wine and I'm ready for a 'long winter's nap'! 

Merry Christmas! 
Happy Holiday!
from all of us at

DEAR READERS, From Sandi:

I'm hoping to catch up with great DIY's, stories, new dioramas and more doll fun in the new year. I will also be expanding the doll related offerings in my Etsy store. I seldom mention the store, but it is always listed at the side of the blog anytime you may want to browse---so I'm not counting this as an ad, LOL. 

I'll try and post a few holiday stories and projects, before I get the new computer working with all my photos and documents. My old Mac is going on 12 years old---pretty great for something that gets used minimum of 4 hours a day!'  I have had a terrible two months of having issues viewing other blogs, joining parties, and commenting and replying has been unavailable MOST of the time. Even on my own blog! 

BUT, TODAY I wish you the happiest of Holiday Seasons and may all your 
Wishes COME TRUE!

Sandi @ Barbie Old,New,Green,Redo
