Children's Ballet Recital

Wotta busy week!
Last Sunday we attended a sweet ballet dance recital, complete with tea in tea cups and slivers of lemon cheesecake...
Maggie got to go, in her pretty pinafore dress. And we found dolls!
A ballet mom makes these lovely long limbed cloth dolls in tutus and toe shoes (made from satin ribbon). One of them really wanted to come to Dolltown. Yes! Maggie and Ballet Doll quickly became friends, giggling over whispered stories.
They hopped on stage for a twirl or two, then returned to the table for sips of sweet tea!

Well....you are certainly have had LOTS and LOTS to do!!!! Looks like the Little Darlings are getting into just about everything. What is nice is to see how they make friends so easily even with the statues in the garden!!!

Hahaha...maybe that's why I fell asleep this afternoon for a while!
I always take a dolly with me...or two, in case I have a photo op.
And my girls get to know the locations where they can play, or visit other dolls.
But they have to make do with Buddha statues, acupuncture dolls, and small dogs because I am the only doll collector I know in town, so far. And at least amongst my friends...who are a little confounded by my "new" hobby. I used to show up at their places with education pdf's to discuss, or new coaching info... :)
Do your girls hop into your tote for the possibility of a photo op?
At a brasserie or Whole Foods?

Oh yessss... My girls slip into my on board bag before I leave for the airport. They slip into my handbag when I leave my apartment. It's why I sometimes use my travel vest (with 22 pockets) instead of carrying a handbag so I can have some alone time in Paris!

Hahaha. I like it. Your girls must get miffed when they realize they are still in the handbag and you have just swooshed out the door. Just a whiff of perfume left in the air.
When you have a minute, check out a very early blog post (for me).
Coming to grips with immersion in the doll world.
