New chair, new bear

  • Posted on February 17, 2016 at 2:21 pm

amber takes a break from test fitting her new hat to checkout the bargain chair we got in the clearance section of pier one (it’s a cell phone holder and was marked down from $23 to less than $6 so we snagged both of them 😉 )

New chair, new bear

she is also cuddling a new bear by honeythorpe, the little girls were much more excited with that parcel than my usual purchases and are having battles over who gets the bear. last i saw they were drawing up time sheets!
we may have to have another lesson on sharing :lol but amber got first dibs as her reward for patiently sitting and letting me try my new crochet hat pattern on her. i still have to sew ends in, crochet the trim and block the flaps to take out some of the curl….so it actually sits like it is in the picture.

i’ve got patterns worked out for my pukifee, littlefee and minifee sizes now, but am running into a snag on the realfee size. they have such big elf/animal ears that the ear flaps just look silly and plain caps are too boring so i’m still trying to decide what to do for them. i’ve done lacey berets before but i wanted something that was a closer fit.

the girls played hide and seek in the flower garden. i’ll leave it to you to decide who was the most successful…

it all start with a fairly typical squabble between the boys and the girls. you know the one…. “anything you can do i can do better?” the little boys were loudly proclaiming their superiority at all things, especially athletic, and amber had just had enough. the day had been rather hot and she was rather tired and cranky to begin with i think. anyway she said the girls were so much better than the boys that she could beat them at soccer with dovey as her partner, even though dovey can’t walk! of course the boys didn’t stop to think, they just accepted the dare.

well i am averaging about 1 pic every three days , sort of 😆

amber and crystal helped me mail the swap parcels and these are the pictures we took at the post office to prove they were mailed. the girls sat on the mailing labels to protect the identity of their partners

as you can see by her hair, crystal was so excited she was bouncing up and down! she can hardly wait for the parcel to get to her new bff.

crystalorn and amberglas are taking part in a swap on doa, with a couple of other tinies. crystal has already made a new bff, since her partner loves pink, flowers and lace as much as crystal! she is taking amber in hand since amber’s partner is also rather girly and she says amber is a great sister, but she just doesn’t understand pink! 😆

here the two of them are ready to go down into the basement to look for swap fabric. they put on their hiking boots, and crystal insisted on taking her flashlight, even though we have lots of light in the basement. they are ready for serious work!

amber and crystal also return from the spa

amberglas and crystalorn had been playing a bit too hard and had had scratches and chips on their faces. so when skylar arrived and needed to go to the spa, they decided to make a girls day of it and get “prettified” with her. there was a lot of giggling involved and it took a lot longer to do three squirmy little girls, but it did keep skylar from being scared and amber and crystal were very happy with the results

i was happy that they retained their unique “selves” through the transformation

if at first you don’t succeed, sky diving probably isn’t the sport for you… 😉

amber and crystal travel to drumheller

  • Posted on June 1, 2012 at 10:24 am

amber and crystal went exploring in drumheller on the weekend. they found a cave, but decided it was a bit too dark and scary so they sat in front to “admire the view”

amber was disgusted to find out the popcorn mud is used to make the base of toothpaste

crystal did a bit of exploring on her own so missed the toothpaste conversation

i took pictures of the swap goodies i sent out for this swap and then forgot completely to upload them once my partner got her stuff.. so here are a couple of what i think are the highlights of the swap

here’s amberglas modelling the mad hatter hat and key necklace.
mad hatter
she thought it was a leprechaun hat and started step dancing.
