4th of July Celebrations

Hey everyone! Katherine here. Happy 4th of July to those in the USA! This year everyone wore red, white, blue so I made them take a group picture. :) 

Now A Doll's Life has an updated family photo!

I got individual pictures of each of the girls and they will say their favorite thing they did for the fourth of July! 

The dogs even dressed up! Their favorite part was probably the food that they got to eat.

Addy: My favorite part was family getting together. Thank you to all the veterans who fought so we could have freedom!

Katrina: The family and friends, no wait the food, no wait the fun games we played! Ahh, I can't choose a favorite!

Saige: Happy 4th! The fireworks by far were my favorite. THEY WERE SO COOL!

Rilynne: Happy 4th of July! So, as most of you know I'm from New Zealand. In NZ most people don't know what the 4th is since it's an American holiday! Back in my homeland it would be the start of winter so manderins are coming in season plus people are getting their winter coats out! Some people around this time also do a mid-winter Christmas since Christmas is during the summer in NZ. We also would get two weeks off from school since the second term ended. This was my first time celebrating the fourth and I would say the fireworks were my favorite! :)

Sydney: Everything was my favorite!

Anastasia: The food. So good! End of story.

Samantha: I liked dressing up!

Kailey: The games we played. By far my favorite thing!

(This is Katherine taking back over again)

Kailey wore her hair down! Doesn't she look so pretty?

If you celebrate the 4th what did you do?

Samantha in Spring

Hello dears! Samantha here today. Yesterday was my birthday, so Katherine took me out for a photo-shoot for my birthday. :)

The Redbuds are finally blooming and are gorgeous! ❀

I felt like a princess. ♕

Purple flowers go well with pink dresses don't they? ^-^

A Spring Surprise {Part 2}

(Click *here* for Part 1 if you haven't already read it!)

She raised her hand into a wave. "I'm Rilynne."

Sydney waved back. "Hi, I'm Sydney! What are you doing here?"

"Well," Rilynne replied, "I'm not sure how to say this, but I was told this would be my new home."

"Oh, that's great! The more the merrier," Sydney smiled at her. "So where are you from?"

"I'm from New Zealand!" Rilynne replied. "It's so weird because right now it would be fall New Zealand; not spring!" 

"That is weird!" replied Sydney. "Well, we should get you settled in and introduce you to your new sisters!"

"Over there by the hopscotch is Katrina with the brown hair, Addy with the black hair, and then Kailey next to her."

All of the girls waved and said hello to Rilynne.

Sydney then led Rilynne over to Anastasia.

"Hi! I'm Anastasia - it's very nice to meet you!"

Saige immediately welcomed Rilynne, and of course the dogs did too.

"I absolutely LOVE dogs!" exclaimed Rilynne. "Back home in New Zealand there was this Corgi puppy I used to play with."

The girls kept talking as the walked along inside.

"So if you are from New Zealand then you are called a kiwi is that right?" asked Saige.

"Correct!' replied Rilynne.

"In theory, you could be a kiwi, eating a kiwi, and watching a kiwi? Right?" Saige asked again.

Rilynne laughed. "Yes, because the word kiwi has three different meanings: a native New Zealander, a fruit, and a bird."

"That's cool!" replied Sydney.

Since the other girls wanted to help get Rilynne settled, they worked on picking up their things.

Everyone, please welcome Rilynne to A Doll's Life family!

She will hopefully make a post soon introducing herself! Be on the lookout for that.

Did you guess from the last post that a new sister would be added to A Doll's Life family?
