She is back!!

She made it back from Bali in one piece though slightly yellowed and dirty!

Of course I had to play and try out some new hair and clothes.

Am I going nuts?

She had some shoes made for her by our shoemaker! These are only prototypes - so many more to come!

Claudia's new passion!

Ok - the bug has bit me and bit me hard! I actually went and bought a BJD doll. And what is more scary - I actually have to unpack her at least once everyday and play.

If anyone has a remedy I don't want to hear about it. I am happy with this infection. And would in fact recommend it to anyone!

First doll post on my private blog!!

Too cute!

Thought I would post a picture of a doll that I dressed today. The second of the "girl" dolls that I dressed and sold as a boy. He is too cute.

Goes to show how versatile these Dianna Effner dolls are. Whether boy or girl - they are darling!

Mr. Snail

Had to lie on the forest floor to take this picture..... have more but he pulls himself into his shell every time I got closer.

Funny how you go in the woods and there is life all around. Bugs, snails, small furry creatures and the occasional deer. BUT when you take your camera into the woods they all go into hiding.

I looked everywhere - sat on a log for almost an hour - but nothing. I heard some creatures under the leaves, but they never popped into view. I could have gone digging for them. But I think that I would not like to be scared out of hiding so left them in peace.

Mr. Snail however did me the favor of coming out of his shell for my photo.
Funny how this guy goes over the little bushel of grass instead of around it!!!!!

Another photo of Ricky....

Ah....!
Another dog pic! Well I really adore this dog and despite his age he still is as fit as a puppy - well not quite.

After a 45 minute run yesterday he slept the whole of today.

Green Bug

So do ya think I can get a job as a photographer? Guess not..... too late anyway. But I liked this picture - the only "green" one shot yesterday.
