Pics of my Presents

At long last, I found time to photograph my gifts. I can't believe I just said a super fancy sentence.

Anyway, here you go!

 This is the heart-shaped basket I received from Jubilee.

 It's a perfect seat for Joy and I's dolls!

Marie made this creature. I bet you've guessed it! Yep, it's a tribble from Star Trek! Yahoo! With a strange rosette... :)

 Fidelia made this cute little chick.

 Naomi and Peace made this cat. :)

Joy made this hen. :D
I love all my presents!

What I did on my B-day

I'm gonna tell you all about my special day, starting with the very beginning.

 As usual, Mrs. Buchanan dropped off Jubilee and Marie promptly at 8:30 am. Marie greeted me quickly and cheerily, then ran inside to find Joy. I waved to Jubilee who had just hopped out of the car. "Hi!" She yelled.

"Hi!" I shouted, and grinned. She looked so small from across our long lawn. She then wasted no time in skipping across the dewy grass to give me a hug. "Ivy!" She squeezed me. "It's been a day Jubilee!" I laughed, and then I gave in. "Okay," I said, "I missed you too!" Us two are like sisters. Not to forget Julie of course! I do miss her. :(

We went into the backyard, and I showed her the progress. "Cool!" She said. It was just then that I noticed. Jubi had no shoes on! "Jubi!" I exclaimed. "Did you forget your shoes at home?" She laughed. "Goodness no! Our family has decided to try going barefoot everywhere for a week." She grinned. "Well in that case," I kicked off my own shoes. "There!"

 After a while of being outside, we went into my room to make posters. I felt silly for still having that "Happy Spring!" poster on my wall. I grabbed paper, pencils, a ruler, and some scissors. Jubilee grabbed my Reese's puffs cereal for snacking.

 In no time, I had the words "happy summer" written on my paper. Here's my half-finished post with a flower.

Jubi quietly wrote, "get ready for some fun in the sun!" Here's her poster half done. Needless to say, our posters look awesome now. :D

After we finished that, it was lunchtime. Mama said to me, "C'mon, we're going somewhere." I put my camera down in its place (unfortunately) I was curious, but said nothing. We all hoped into the van and drove to Chili's. By now, I was really interested! We were escorted to a big table where all the Rose Hollow Dolls were waiting!

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY IVY!" They shouted in unison, including Jubi and Marie.
We had a GREAT time, even though I didn't bring my camera. :)

Oh well! I had a fun time.
Gotta go! I'm going to start working on a new post about summer. Summer IS right around the corner...literally!
And I'm looking forwards to it. Because on the 21st, I'm going with Mama to see Elliebob and Julie! Yayyyyy!

Birthday

I didn't want to say anything but...this upcoming Tuesday is my birthday! I wonder if anybody remembered...
I hope so!
I'm really looking forwards to it. I didn't really want any presents, just a get-together with all my friends! I wish I could see Julie though...I think she's vacationing or something.
And guess what?
This Saturday, we're continuing our landscaping journey. The landscaper guy is going to rototill the backyard and put in grass!
Well...see you gals later.

~Sunshiny or not, Ivy

Joy's B-day

Sorry I didn't post these yesterday, but we're busy. So!
We had oodles of fun on Tuesday. At 1pm, the guests arrived.

Yes, I wore my cherry blossom dress. Joy wore the pretty wraparound dress that Mama made.
We had a Princess Diaries style party! Remember in Princess Diaries 2, they mattressurfed? We did that too! Except we used pillows and our chaise longue.
Here goes Joy...

And her reaction...

Yep! Fidelia went on her stomach...

Hee hee! Jubi and I went down together.

We went faster than anyone else! Too fast for Mama to take a picture...

And Marie went last. Don't worry if this pic confuses you, I don't really understand it myself.

After eating cake, we decided to open presents.

That belongs to P2! Haha, will post later. :)

Happy Birthday!

It's Joy's 12th birthday today! Yahoo!!!!!!!!

H-A-P-P-Y   B-I-R-T-H-D-A-Y   J-O-Y!

So yeah. We're all dressed, and the guests will be arriving soon. I gotta go, but I'll write later after the party!

P.S. Wish Joy happy bday please!

Presents

Yesterday was present-wrapping day. Jubilee, Marie, and Fidelia all came over to wrap their presents for Joy in my room. When I looked around, I was confidant I had enough supplies.

Two big boxes, one small box, brown filling, and a lot of ribbon! My doll sat atop my desk watching innocently. I waited impatiently, and checked my supplies again. Was it enough?

Just then, everyone arrived!

Jubilee and her sister Marie brought a CUTE (simply adorable) flowerpot filled with pansies. Needless to say, they were fake. They looked so realistic though! Sweet Fidelia brought a green sequined tank top for Joy's new doll (which is my present). Aren't their clothes fabulous? I really love their clothes. Marie's handmade tunic is really cool, and Fidelia's floor-length sundress is so breezy. And of course, Jubilee always has fantastic outfits.

Once we greeted each other, we sat on the floor. Fidelia chose the little green box, Marie chose the red and green origins box (Hey! I couldn't do any better), and I got the blue teddy bear box.

And then, we started wrapping.

In went the green sequined tank top.

In went the flower pot. Yeah, Jubilee got the filling. :)

And in went this cute doll. Remember when Jubi and I bought the doll? Look in the archives in May 5, 2011.

Marie and I decorated our boxes with ribbon. Fidelia declined. Here are the presents! and us. :)

Yay! I can't wait for Joy's party.
