Lisa arrived this morning - I hadn't even finished my breakfast yet! I let the package rest a bit to warm up some. It's so ridiculously cold out these days. They've been calling it a "Polar Vortex" every time the temperature takes a nose-dive, but it alternates with more seasonable winter temperatures. I had to laugh this morning when the radio DJ was doing the weather forecast; she said "the windchill is minus 20, but Saturday it is going all the way up to zero. What do they mean calling it a "Polar" vortex? It's more like a "Bi-polar vortex!!"
Anyway, my Lisa is here, and she looks great! It's always a bit bitter-sweet when a doll comes blank, as I have to imagine how she will look painted. I think she may be the nicest KID sculpt so far - a nice round face, nice mouth with a hint of a smile. Most Lisas I've seen are in normal, peach, or gray skin, and they are all gorgeous. I went with Real Skin, as she has a family resemblance to my Lonnie, and I wanted them to be different. Plus it's my favourite skin-tone.

...and here she is with Lonnie and Peach...
There were also two wigs - wavy with center part, and no bangs. I like the golden blonde on Peach. It's just way too long for her - to the bottom of her skirt. I bought the wigs for when my JIDs and KIDs become Medieval maidens and they need long flowing hair. I'll let Peach keep the blonde wig for now, and if I decided it's going to be her default wig, then I'll have to trim it.
