Dolls finished today

Today I finished up these dolls

Cute Americana Annie

Started some fall dresses , this one is pumpkins, I gave her autumn hair too!

Pink ones

This Annie is in a cute Minnie mouse print

This is a hello kitty Annie with pink hair.

They would have all been finished on Sunday but we went down and visited our new Grand baby Emily....:)
Daddy and Emily

Silly Aunt Erika holding Emily....she had to wait till Emily's big sister Rachel went down for a nap, because Aunt Erika is all Rachel's.....:)

Rachel, Emily and Great Grandma Jean sharing a moment together.

It was a wonderful day , spending it with family, nothing beats that!!

found those dolls...

I found those dolls that I mentioned in my earlier post today and two are done. I just love making these dolls. This first  Annie is all ready for summer and summer picnics. Her skirt is a cute ant print.

Just reminds me of summer and all the fun picnics.

Not sure what I will call this Annie. I just loved the fabric with the cute birds and this is the first ever Annie doll I did with pink hair.

I purchased the yarn over a year ago but just never found the right doll until now.

Our forcast for tonight is calling for 2 to 6 inches of snow. And right now those big huge white snowflakes are coming down.....:(       I might have to take some pictures but I would prefer to be taking pictures of my spring flowers.

Doll dresses

Doll dresses are done, now where did those dolls go???

:) hope your have a wonderful day!!

Circle of life...

April 5th 2012 will be always celebrated for 2 special people in my life.
First it is when my 2nd beautiful granddaughter was born. Me and Emily Jeanne, first time holding her ....:)

Proud Daddy!!

Grandma, Daddy, Rachel and Emily

Happy Aunt Erika

And I will always remember the second person, my wonderful brother- in -law Dennis.

He went home to heaven to be with our Lord. I will always celebrate his life on Emily's birthday! One came into the family and one went home...THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.
