Getting Ready

10/23/2020

It was almost time for Sena's birthday party. Iris had sent some of her family's clothes, so everyone could dress up in Victorian period fashion.
Picture
Owen needed a little help tying his cravat...
Picture
Lonnie needed her hair done...
Picture
Picture
The girls were so excited to go, and were the first ones dressed, and kept admiring themselves in the mirror...
Picture
Picture
Picture
"Let me help you with your coat..."
Picture
"This is going to be so much fun.."
Picture
Everyone was getting ready to go to the party...
Picture
...except Coco, who was still too absorbed in his computer game....
Picture
Owen was getting a bit impatient...
Picture
"Time to put that thing away, and get dressed. We are all waiting for you..."
Picture
Picture
Lonnie picked up all the clothes he'd thrown on the floor....
Picture
...while Holly helped tie up his bow...
Picture
Picture
"Okay, we are all ready to go now...."

I am really excited about the latest time travel/birthday story.

Lonnie looks different to me. Is she wearing a different wig? I do like that color on her.

That's great that someone is excited about the story.

Lonnie is different. She needed to be repainted a while back, and I never really liked her new look, so she hasn't been in photos much.

I love these two families and their stories! Everyone helping each other get ready to go is sweet and lifelike. I love how you portray the dolls doing everyday activities so realistically. The sequence with Coco is too funny!

Now they just have to get there...

Thanks. I take inspiration from real life. I did have young kids once, so do know all about this kind of stuff.
