Good morning, Christmas friends. It is sunny and just a little cloudy here in northern California. Dinner last night was excellent, and a good time was had by all!!! We even brought our leftovers home and will enjoy them for lunch! I hope everyone has a great day. Laundry is beckoning!!!
 
Thanks to CM3 for bringing up her paper doll collection. I was telling my mom about our conversation on here and she said she just LOVED paper dolls as a child. I remember her mentioning this over the years. She thought they didn't make them anymore.

Today I bought her paper dolls for Mothers Day along with flowers and other goodies. I know she will love it.

They were hard to find and not much to choose from but I got them!
 
What a great, sentimental idea!!

Awww........It makes me so happy that something I said made someone happy. Dover Publications has a SLEW of paper dolls. In fact, they have a section that is JUST paper dolls !!!!! If you look on line under paper dolls, there are a few retailers who still sell them !!!

Like I had mentioned, I have ALWAYS loved fashion and costume and what a wonderful way to become more familiar with eras past and other cultures !!

Blessings to you and your mom and all moms on Mothers Day xoox
 
look what I found at the thrift store today...

only $4!
I am SOOOO JEALOUS! How cute and what a great price!

I have been wanting one for my fireplace but just don't want to spend the "brand new" price for it. I frequent thrift stores so I am sure I will find one sometime. cheesy

Hi guys! It was our community yard sale today. I was hunting for some good Christmas stuff, found some old things but nothing I really needed, so I didn't buy anything... my hubby got suckered into buying trucks for Jude, shocker! 3 boys in our house (hubby and the kids) = too many trucks ! Daddy is just as bad as the boys! :)

We tried to take a walk (so I could peek in the alleys and see if any of the yard salers put their junk in the trash - I LOVE trash picking, haha!) but we got rained on! OH and if you have a sweet tooth - I made these today:

DELISH!!!

Happy Mother's Day to the mamas if I don't pop on before then!

I have been looking for one too for the same reason! Today I thought I would just pop in and look around quick and it finally paid off! Hope you find yours soon.
(my daughter thinks I am crazy or something...have not put it away yet)

Crazy is a good thing. We are all CRAZY for Christmas! :thumbsup:
I still have a few little Christmas decorations around the house.
 
Speaking of being a kid all your life and since it's Mothers Day tomorrow I thought this to be appropriate to talk about my mom.

My mother has shared so many fond memories of her childhood. She grew up on the beach in Long Beach, California, Naples, California and at one time right around the corner from Disneyland. She would tell the stories of her parents taking her to the beach, up in the mountains and she also got to sing in a choir on grand opening day of Disneyland. Also the many trips she use to take and the time she spent in Palm Beach.

She never grew up and it's a good thing! She went onto sharing childhood memories by taking me and my kids (her grandchildren) to Disneyland twice, Disney World twice, Sea World, Water Parks, Skating, movies, train trips across the country and many other places.

She is almost 70 and still doing all these things and now sharing it with my grandchildren (her great grandchildren)! We have not gone to Disney yet with them but she talks about it all the time and VERY READY to go back.

She said she loves these places because she feels like a kid again. I am glad she has passed this onto me! I love my mom! It's good to feel young all your life!

Kudos to your mom !! As for never growing up.......I just don't see the point in being "an adult" every second of the day !! Be sure and give your mom a great big ((((HUG))))) from me !!
