I've not shared any photos of my Ruby Red kids for quite some time. I still had some from when I let them visit the toy store that was set up a while back

Took some portraits of Emily as a little butterfly fairy in some flowers I received recently....     With it being such a lovely Spring day, Lily decided to serve dinner out in the garden...    But someone else was hungry too...  "You want something too?"  "Well, I don't think these are so good for you."  So he went over to Larry...   "But... these are my favourite!"  "Just give him one."  "There's plenty."   Today is Star Wars Day..... which I first commemorated in 2013...  Then again in 2024....     May the 4th be with you!
With the warmer Spring weather hopefully coming soon, Larry and Lily needed something casual to wear in the warmer weather... 
 Back in the meadow, this time with my newest arrival, Bella by SartoriaJ...  Every spring I make it a priority to photograph my newest dolls in among the scillas. 
I still have to make her a wig and an outfit of her own, so this is just her temporary look....   Who knows where she will fit in, and who she will become?  While looking back at all the photos of my Victorian family over the years, it became clear that Eric was under represented. Maybe it was because he was always wearing a dressy sailor suit. But he also didn't seem to have any friends, other than his cousin Coco who would come for a visit now and then. So, I decided to remedy the situation. I made a pair of tartan pants to go with an existing shirt and vest, then made two entirely new outfits. From the left; Elliot, Coco, Bordy....   I had originally planned on giving Eric one of the new outfits, but in the end I didn't feel like taking one of the new outfits from the other boys, thereby reducing his number of friends, so I needed to make yet another outfit...  In the end, I decided that Eric would get the outfit Coco was wearing, since he was from quite an affluent family,  and I made a new outfit for Coco...  So Eric finally had a group of friends to go out and do some fun things with...  Matias was on his way to meet up with the Elf King's army....heading through yet another blue meadow....  But they weren't at the usual meeting place.  He came across Larry and Lily
"Good day Sir and Madam."  "Have you by any chance seen the King and his army? I was supposed to meet up with them here."  "Yes. They were here, but they moved on about an hour ago."  "They went that way."   "They can't have gotten far."
"Thank you."  And Matias rode off to join them.  On another trip to their new home, Lily and Larry ran into an old friend....  Larry continued to press on towards their new home...  while Winston and Lily caught up with the latest news....   |
