Christmas Thanks

I wanted to dedicate this post to saying, "Thank you." My math teacher told the class to just say thanks, and it's worth a lot. So here we go!

I thank everyone for following Dolls, Dolls, and More Dolls and for commenting and voting on my polls. So, "Thank You!"

My dolls also want to say thank you to everyone for taking an interest in their pictures and stories. So, they say, "Thank You!"

Thanks again, and "Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"

Awesome Website

I'm reading this book, and it's called Do Hard Things. It's written by two teenagers (but I think they're in their early twenties now) named Alex and Brett Harris. It's about how teenagers are stooping down to meet the low expectations of today's society, and how they're not being prepared for adult life. It teaches you how to live your teenage years to the fullest, and how more and more teenagers are rising above today's low expectations. I think it's a really inspirational book. http://www.therebelution.com/ is their website... you should check it out!

Guess What...

Guess what?

I got a new camera today! I got it with the money I got for my birthday, and it is REALLY cool! It is a sparkley magenta color (too cute) and it takes wonderful pictures. I am so excited to get my dolls ready for pictures because the camera takes really good ones. I've been testing it out on the television, Trinka (my dog), my sister and mom. Now, its ready for the big job... MY DOLLS! I'll have pictures soon, and they'll be taken with my new camera! I am super excited!!

TTYL, Hal

Trinka (My Puppy)

Here's Trinka! If you don't know who she is, she's my German Shepherd/Black Lab puppy (well, I guess she isn't a puppy anymore; she turned 2 in September). This is a fairly recent photo of her. I think she looks like a shepherd more than a lab because her ears are up most of the time and she is built less stocky than a labrador. If you are a dog nut (like me) you'll know what I'm talking about. Anyway, here she is! I know that Trinka doesn't have to do anything with dolls, but I thought that it would be nice to post pictures of her. If you want to see more, go under the tag "Not Doll Related". I've done another post about her.

PS- There are two historic landmarks in Dolls, Dolls, and More Dolls today: 1. I have over 50 posts, and 2. I have 25 followers! Thank you so much to everyone on Dolls, Dolls, and More Dolls! : D

Yom Kippur

Hi Everyone! It's Rebecca again. Tomorrow is Yom Kippur, the Jewish day of atonement. It is when you acknowlege all of your sins from the past year and "dump" them into a lake. You symbolize them by putting breadcrubs in your pockets and throwing them into the lake. I am going to do that tomorrow with my family and also go to my grandparent's house. I am going to wear the new dress made for me! It is very pretty, 'specially with my hat and boots. I will attach some photos ASAP, but the camera's batteries are all burnt out. : (

I wish eveyone a happy, healthy New Year! Rosh Hashana went extremely well. Everyone loved the caramel, including me!

Just to tell you- pictures will be posted really soon! So be on the lookout!

Hi from Rebecca!

Hello! This is Rebecca. I wanted to tell everyone about Rosh Hashana, or the Jewish New Year. It's tomorrow, and all of our family is coming over to our house. We're supposed to be eating apples and honey, to represent a sweet new year, but my brother and sisters don't like honey so they substituted the honey with caramel. I think my bubbe would be okay with it because caramel is just as sweet as honey. We're going to have chicken and strawberry lemondade for dinner- yum! Anyway, I wish everyone a happy Rosh Hashana!

American Girl at McDonalds

Today (August 14th), McDonalds is releasing their American Girl toys to go along with their Happy Meals! I just purchased the set on Ebay (http://www.ebay.com/) for a fairly good price. I don't know when they're leaving McDonalds, but I doubt it'll be soon. Also, for boys, there are Lego Racers (I thought I'd add that if you have any brothers/cousins/etc. interested). I am so excited!

PS- American Girl must be really hurting for money right now!

Saving Up My Money To Buy...

Hi everyone! Guess what? I'm saving up my money to buy my very own camera, so I don't have to use my mom's to take pictures! I used to have a camera, but for some reason, it wouldn't register that it had the batteries in it. It was all very odd. Anyway, I am excited because I can take my new one anywhere and I can take as many pictures with it as I want!

My Puppy

This is my little puppy (well, she isn't so little anymore!) named Trinka! She is almost 2 years old (she was born in September of '07), and about 50 lbs. I love her so much! She is half German Shepherd, and half Black Lab. I know none of this concerns dolls, but I like to tell everyone about her anyway.

These pictures are from when I first met her. I found out about her on http://www.petfinder.com/, which is an animal rescue website. (If you are looking for adopting some kind of animal, or just want to see some really cute dogs, cats, etc., this is the website to check out!) Finally, after what seemed like AGES, we got to meet her in Los Angeles. We didn't have to drive SUPER long, but it sure seemed like we did! Anyway, we met her and fell in love with her. She was so tiny! We adopted her on the spot! After a month (when Trinka was 2 months old), she finally came home to live with us! (According to the rules of the rescue we got her from, she had to be 2 months old for her to come home with us for good.)It was 2 days before Halloween.
