My Mini Me!

Hey! So I edited and layered doll pics to make a pretty rough estimate of what I would look like if you saw me. Now, the coat I thought was adorable, although I would love one. And I have brown boots. But whatever. Here it is:

yeah, I know her hair looks kinda weird...

So she has hazel eyes like me, and sorta swoopy light brown hair, like me, as well as a sorta light complexion. :) So, have you ever made a mini-me of yourself??

P.S. If anyone wants a mini-me, I am more than happy to make one! Just put in a comment or e-mail if that is you r hearts desire, what you look like, and it shall be in a post or reply to your e-mail for you. :D

Locks of Love!

For another round of a photo contest, the theme was charities. So, I decided to do my pic of Emily donating her hair to Locks of Love. If you haven't already heard of it, Locks of Love makes hair pieces out the hair YOU donate and gives it to people who lost their hair by medical reasons, like cancer. I think it's an amazing charity, and want to grow out my hair and donate it!! Here's the pic I took:

Ug! I'm so sorry this pic is sideways. It really bugs me how I rotate it on picnik but still Blogger prevails and uploads it sideways. Also, it's so much cuter when it's taken vertical... Blogger's uploader takes my cute pics and just makes them look cruddy, if you know what I mean.

So yep. Hopefully blogger can fix the problem, but if not I'll try. :)

**No doll hair was harmed in the making of this picture**

Love,

My Fave AG Items!

Hey! American Girl released some new items, and these are my favorites!

This is such a cute, summer/spring dress! Love the blue color.

I love this tankini! I love how AG is making modest swimsuits. And the pattern and color look great together.

Wow! This is THE CUTEST parasol ever. I always (secretly) wanted AG to make one. Although, get this, at Disneyland they sell these adorable custom mini and girl sized parasols on New Orleans Square and I was really close to buying one once! I like this one better thought. :)

This is a super cute dress! I'm not sure why it's for a limited time only...Probably one of AG's money-making schemes. Oh well. Do what you want American Girl.

So! That about sums it up. To see all the new items click here!

Lanie Pictures

Well! Sorry for the lack of posts and pictures lately, I have just found myself uncommonly busy. With school in full swing and projects here and there free time seems to be occasional. I did take the time to take pictures of my beautiful Lanie in a sundress quite becoming on her.

I know this looks over edited, but hey, the lighting was, well, MEH.

Un edited, with horrific lighting.

And THE ONLY DECENT PIC IS UPSIDE DOWN. What are the odds??? (Sorry to have caused you any pain in the neck trying to crane to see this. )

Oh, and you know the Jane Austen fan me being, I finished a BBC Miniseries( Love those!) of "Emma" (The newer 2009 version) and totally adored it. And usually period drama music is so-so, but I thought the soundtrack on this was spectacular! :D I think even if you don't necessarily like Jane Austen, you'll like this.

So yeah, hopefully my posts aren't spread too far apart but I'll just give you a heads up that I'm pretty busy.

Love,

You Are Now Reading The Title of the Longest Post EVER!!!!

If you in a hurry, don't start this. This might take a more than a few minutes to finish. :D

SOOOOOOO.......

Let's start this humungo post off with a photo-story! Long time no do, right??

BUM BUM BUM.......

(Oh, and Mia's adorable shirt is my prize from Gabby's contest!)

"LOL Lissie, you are hilarious!" Mia laughed. Emily was smiling so hard her cheeks hurt. As Felicity continued her story on

As Felicity continued her story on the amazing and funny adventures of her time in Miss Wilkerson's class during 3rd period, Emily tripped on a shoe and almost fell right on her face.

"ALRIGHT WHO"S SHOE IS THIS?!" Emily said, snatching it off the ground.

"Ummm, I've never seen that shoe before..." Felicity replied. "But it's super cute!" Mia said, smiling. Then a puzzled look came over her face. "Be right back!" Mia called as she raced down the hall.

She cam back with one of Emma's books and set it down. "Not to be mean or anything, but why are you holding a book?" Emily remarked.

"Look, that shoe looks a lot like hers. Lanie's." Emily told them slowly.

"Do you think....." Mia started slowly, "That Emma got LANIE??" She practically yelled.

"AHHHHHHH! Felicity yelled, totally freaking out.

"Guys, just shut up! We don't even know yet... GUYS!" Emily tried to talk to them but Mia and Felicity were too busy screaming their lungs out.

While the girls argued a girl with curly blonde hair and 1 shoe walked slowly up.

"OMG! My shoe!" She exclaimed, picking it up. All the girls heads turned toward Lanie, mouths hanging open.

"Hi! Ummmm, did I do something? Oh, darn it, is there marker on my face?" Lanie exclaimed, rubbing on her cheek.

"No, it's cool. But, um, no offense intended, but how did Emma get you? I mean, I'm a GOTY too, and your, um, retired..." Mia stuttered.

"Oh, I was bought off Ebay." Lanie replied.

"Hi! I'm Felicity but my friends call me Lissie what's your name this is Mia, and over there is Emily and was it horrible being on for auction I heard it's awful I love your curls do you like my new skirt" Felicity blabbered.

"Aaaaannnd, that's good for today, Lissie. Sorry if she freaked you out or anything. I'm Emily." Emily said to Lanie, smiling. "Oh, cool! I have a sister named Emily. You know let me tell you about me..." Lanie said.

THE END!! YAY!

So, it's official! Lanie is MINE! :D Here's some pics of when I first opened her:
