Again sorry for the lack of posting lately. I'm trying to make up for it.

Anyways, here is what's happened with the Dolls:

Thistle's cast is off. She posted about it on her blog.

Camp ended. Sorry :(

Their room situation is...hard to explain. See, with my new sewing machine (see post below), I have to put it somewhere when I'm not using it. Under my desk, where the Dolls' bedroom is, is the only place I can put it, and it takes up a bunch of room. The Dolls have been sleeping in the hallway a bunch lately. Fortunately, they haven't said anything and I'm thankful to them, but I still hope to figure out something soon.

Felicity designed five outfits, Lizzy painted three canvases and started two, and Thistle got a new insparation for a book.

Now, that pretty much brings you up to speed. Sorry again for lack of posting. I WILL POST A PHOTOSTORY OF THEIR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL ON MONDAY!!! ;)

I am SO SORRY that I haven't posted in FOREVER!!!!!! Things have been really crazy around here, since school starts next week and we're trying to fit in all of the last-minute trips to grandparents and friends. My friend has a play tomorrow, and then I have three days of relaxation (AT LAST!) until school starts on Tuesday, August 24th. I'm really excited about school starting! I know, I'm crazy. It's just the awesome school I go to. Not telling you what it is. Sorry, public internet...

Anyways, I have been hinting in my last few posts about a surprise that will help me post more. I got it a long time ago, but I never had a chance to post the pictures I took of it.

So, here is the surprise:

I got a brand-new...













































































SEWING MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You may have noticed that in the last couple pictures, Thistle was wearing the dress I made (if you have no idea what I am talking about, you might want to read all of the blog posts that you missed). A few days after I made that dress, it kinda fell apart. Now, I have resewed it with my sewing machine, and it's good as new! I love my new sewing machine! It's a Singer, as you may have noticed. I got it at Target for under 100 dollars. It works very well, and it's my first sewing machine. It's great for beginners!

My choices were that one and one that was green instead of red. However, I had been looking at sewing machines online, and some reviews on the green one said that it stopped working after a month. But guess what? The one I got has a 25-year limited warranty, so if THIS one breaks down (although I didn't find this one online, so I didn't have any reviews on it) I can return it.

But it has served me wellsince I got it.

Anyways, I have to go now. School starts on Tuesday, so my scedule will even out. I will try to post when I get home from school, but I'll have homework so it will have to be later OR my posts will be super short. Expect more posts on the weekends.

(P.S. Sorry I didn't get, like, any photostories of the Girls' camp up...summer has been busier than I thought it would be.)
