All very cute And wow, my rosemaries have never flowered!!

[Lejays17]

Thanks Alliecat.

The rosemary is looking gorgeous - it needs to be cut back, but I won't do it while it's in flower.

Here's a pic of why it needs to be cut back. the blue/red blob in the bottom right is Evie for scale.

Holy cow o.O
Aaaaaand, that's why mine never does. I was like "oh, right. Australia." Mine never have time to get that big before winter hits. I bring them in, but they don't do all that well in the house.

Whoa! Rosemary is an annual where I live, too, and I grow it in a pot on my patio. There's been a few years I've gotten a couple blossoms, but not like that.

Our gardening regime is essentially benign neglect. we do water in summer when it gets hot, and pull up weeds when they get out of control, but mostly the garden grows as it does and I like it that way.

And YAY! summer is coming - and today was sunny & "warm" so Evie decided to take advantage of that.

Cute! That's a nifty hammock, too.

It's a Barbie prop Chris found when we were supposed to be shopping for a present for my mum's birthday.

It was the AFL Grand Final here this weekend, and Chris's team made it for the first time in 35 years, so he was very excited about that. And then they won... He's been beside himself with excitement, so some of the girls helped celebrate

Lottie & Evie watching the Parade on TV (Evie is excited as they are interviewing her favourite player)

Winners are Grinners!!!

Gotta love all the team spirit! The Barbie prompts are the pennants?

[Alliecat]

Haha, that's so cute. I like the one of them in front of the TV. I was like that with hockey, in high school

[Offgenemi]

Such a cute photo series I love the one where you see her cheering, looking at tv from the back

[Lejays17]

The cheering in front of the TV is one of my favourites too - it actually turned out better than I eected - I took a couple but you couldn't really see the picture on the TV.
The flags / pennants are fridge magnets that we got ages ago, and I hoped that they were a good size for the dolls, and they were.


Meredith is not at All Impressed with her silly new hat (the rest of the outfit was fine though )

A wistful looking Maeve in a Barbie fashion dress - her larger chest fills it out better than some of the other girls

I was knitting green socks the other week, and got into a discussion over the different shades of green (colour in general). Shala is admiring some of my green yarn stash (the sock next to her head is what sparked the convo)


We did some garden tidying the other week - emptying out the fish pond. Evie & Amelia "helped"


Shala & Lottie - Lottie's over-pinafore (apron?) makes a lovely sundress.

[Alliecat]

Oh, there's that gorgeous dress again. Can I ask where you got it? I like the green shading in the crochet thing too. (Or is it knitting, I don't do either!! )
These are all really cute. Meredith looks like she likes the second hat a little better I think my favourite is the one of them at the pool.

hi Lejays
I haven't been around much lately but I thought there was another Aussie or two who post regularly (like I used to )

All of your girls are gorgeous. You're another one who finds the most interesting spots to pose them, I love looking at pics like this.

May I second Allie's question about that gorgeous green dress? I adore green. And the green & teal in your crochet is stunning {Allie I THINK it's crochet, I can do both but have not for so many years I wouldn't know where to start }

[Lejays17]

Hi Alliecat & Miss Edith,

I got the dress from Etsy, the seller was dolly.boutiquee (yes, 2x "e" at the end). She's from Spain, and mostly sells Frutoso carry bags for dolls (so you know your in the right shop )

And the shawl is knitted, not crochet (I can't crochet to save myself!), but because the pattern is Lacey, I can see why it looks like crochet because of the holes.
