Emily's Dance Competition

Emily and Mama left for dance competition yesterday afternoon. She will be doing her solo in a few minutes. Her class dance is tomorrow. She will be coming back Saturday night. It is unusually quiet at home without her. Because of the dance competition we don't have school today. I love being homeschooled.

Edit- she is dancing right now, please pray for her

Meet My Dolls

Here is a video I did a couple of days ago. In case you ask, I did do the music myself.

Please go to Ruthie's blog. She is posting again and wants to know if she should continue with the Harry Potter theme.

My Entry for Gabby's Photo Contest

Here is my entry. The theme of these photos is "The Unusual Ruthie."



This photo reminds me of Series of Unfortunate Events because of Count Olaf and V. F. D. I thought this would be an interesting photo. This picture makes the eye seem blank and looking out into the distance. That is something Ruthie will do when she is supposed to be doing school.

Ruthie is a daydreamer sometimes (mainly during school) and this picture shows that.

This shows Ruthie's interesting taste in clothing. She doesn't worry about what anyone else thinks.

Ruthie's Hairstyle

I saw that Phoebe from Love That Doll did this hairstyle on Julie. I decided to do it on Ruthie. Unfortunately, Ruthie has medium, curly hair. Whenever I try to braid her hair the braids stick out of her head. All my dolls have shorter hair, but I do my sister's dolls long hair (well, Emma Lee has medium hair). It is odd that I like long hair but my dolls have shorter hair while my sister likes short hair but two of her dolls have shorter hair and one has medium hair. I also did this hairstyle on myself which worked better because I have wavy/straight, long/medium hair.

In case the pictures aren't clear, Ruthie has three regular braids, a section of hair down, and a small braid. Violet Baudelaire wore this hairstlye in the Series of Unfortunate Events movie. That is actually inacurate because Violet wanted her mom to braid her hair when she was little but her hair just unraveled.

If you would like to see this hairstyle done on a different doll go to
