Earth Day Video!

We didn't fall off the face of the Earth. We just wanted the Photo Contest Voting post to sit at the top for awhile. Haha. We are tricky like that. If you haven't voted for your favorite photo yet -- please do -- we appreciate your participation. Last day to vote is Tuesday, April 26th. :-)

Today's Youtube Slideshow/Video is for Earth Day 2011. We have some pictures in it of our Christmas Dolls, the two Ty Li'l Ones we received (Hannah and Brianna), making a snowman. And we have a bunch of our nature photographs to round out "Our Tribute to Winter."

Here in Badger's Wood Spring has yet to spring. It is cold and rainy and dreary and chilly and cloudy and dark, and have I mentioned cold? So this video is asking "Mother Nature" to push Spring our way... we are really, really ready for it to arrive!

Thanks for watching everyone!

Ye Olde Christmas Gifts

Remember like two months ago when I told you that my sister and I received special Christmas gifts this year? And I was going to post about them? Yeah.... and I didn't..... well here they are now. We got two Ty Li'l Ones: Mariah and Hannah.

Ellie got Mariah and I got Hannah and you can see them in their boxes below.... we added in some bonus pics of Grandma's Christmas tree and some of her decorations. :-) We will have pics of the dolls out of their boxes, too -- they even went outside to build a tiny snowman. So stay tuned for those pics.

And the good news for you is that Penny picked up "Trendy Taylor" as a giveaway item for this year. She will be featured as one of our monthly giveaways for AG's 25th Anniversary at some point. Here is the standard manufacturer's image below because we haven't taken pics of her yet. She is very cute in person. :-)
