My birthday & announcements

Hello, readers!

It is a cool evening after a hot August day, and we are in the mountains for a family mud run! It's Mom's 16th birthday this month, and she wanted to do a mud run to celebrate.

IT"S GONNA BE SO FUN!!

I mean, I can't actually go, but I'll be watching. How? Ninja secret.

As for now, I'll just relax and admire the moon. It's so lovely.

. . .

Hey, how are you guys? I hope you've had a great summer! It won't start actually feeling like fall for about another month, but all the summer activities have ended.

And oh my gosh, that mud run was so fun! My siblings and I kept throwing mud at each other, pulling each other down from muddy slopes we just climbed, and shove into puddles. There were sixteen obstacles, and one of the first ones was a stretch were the water was up to your waist, but you were knee deep in soft clay/mud, Daisy immediately lost a shoe. We spent five/ten minutes kneeling in the water, scrabbling around for it. We found someone else's shoe, but not hers. So she went barefoot. 😜

There were a LOT of steep, muddy slopes to climb. You had to go up on your hands and knees, digging your fingernails into the dirt while your knees tried to find a support in the mud. And some of them had ROCKS in it. my knees are covered in small scabs.

But it felt so fantastic to be completely covered in mud. Or, it was until I fell face first in a mud puddle while laughing. I did not enjoy tasting it. 😑
I could rant about how amazing it was all day, but you would get bored. 😂

We stayed at a campsite instead of a motel for the night, because it was cheaper. We took a walk the evening we got there, which is where I took these pics. Ivy, Thorin and I made up fake identities while we walked, with looks, backstory and personalities, in case we're ever on the run from the law and need disguises. 

I can't say much about them, since talking about it online would defeat the point of being in disguise. But if a red-head named Cherry ever shows up at your door, help her out, because it just might be me.

*dramatic pause*

And to change the subject, we got another cat!

Meet Caspian, our new kitten. Like most kittens, he has given us all a large number of scratches from playing with him, and drives Milo insane. (poor Milo has been spending a lot of time outside, he finds Caspian annoying with all his energy) and unlike most kittens, Caspian eats your hair, and vegetables. VEGETABLES. His favorite place to play is in a bag of potatoes, his favorite place to sleep was on top of a pile of tomatoes, (until mom cooked them) and we've caught him eating cucumbers, and peppers.

 He's never seen me do a photoshoot before. 

Aaaaand now he makes a hasty retreat from the scene of the crime.

I'll be posting the photos from the shoot on Instagram, as I will be doing that more than blogging now. I will still post on here, (I have some ninja diy's in the works that I can't wait to show you!) and I'll probably do 'this month on Instagram' posts so that those of you without accounts can still see my photos, because we don't want anyone left out, do we?

I'm excited, and hopefully since Instagram posts are quicker to do, I'll post more! 😃

I love ya'll, have an amazing day!

Lea's birthday photoshoot

Olá, leitores! (That's Portuguese for hello, readers!) 

It's my birthday this month, and its been a very nice day.

My Sister and cousins are preparing the party. There's going be some splendid decorations, inspired by the movie Rio!  

Don't tell them I know, it was supposed to be a secret. Perhaps instead you can hint for them to find better hiding places next time.

I just love these flowers. They remind me of spring in Brazil.

It was so warm there. 

Winter has been reluctant to let go here, but it's getting pushed back.

I can hear the girls calling, they must have finished decorating the cake.

Tchau!

The dolls visit Josie (while I just eat cake and ice cream)

Hi everyone! 

We went to South Carolina for Kyra/Rose's birthday, (her grandparents live there) it was just a day trip, but Elizabeth was very excited to see Josie again, as they were celebrating their birthdays as well. (The other girls were just as delighted, but a different type of delighted, since it wasn't their birthdays.)

They made a fire and roasted marshmallows to add more sugar onto to the cake and ice cream they had. 😜

 Camille and her new friend, Emerson! 🐟🌟

They ate a LOT of s'mores.  

 Josie has another new sister, Tenney, but she couldn't come, she had a performance and a few interviews that she couldn't miss back in Ohio. 😉

 I don't know if you can tell, but the fire is glowing. 🙂

 Besties.💙💖

Elizabeth got a bunny, she named it Brownie bite, like her mama's bunny, Brownie.  

 Then they climbed trees.

They visited a 'national park' and got one those vacation pictures where nobody is looking at the camera, everyone is goofing off, and someone is missing because they're taking the picture. (in this case, its Elizabeth) 

Well, at least they had fun.

 There was this tree that had red flowers that looked like roses on it.

It was very pretty. 

🌹 

We also played with legos a bit, watched Ninjago and some of the Olympic figure skaters, played hide-and-go-seek-tag, and had cake, of course. 🙂 It was delicious, and so purple.💜

Have an amazing day ya'll,

bye,

What did you do this weekend? does Brownie bite look like a miniature 

version of Brownie or what? Is it cold where you're at? 

We had a warm day, but I can't wait until spring.

 I like being able to take dolls for photoshoots 

against all the green. 🍃

Ruthie's mini skating shoot

This year, Ruthie wanted to go ice skating for her birthday. And since it coincided with Ivy's birthday skating, (surprise, surprise) I decided to oblige her. Kit came as well, and they also got to try on some 'lipstick' for a treat. (It's dry erase marker. 😉)

It was pretty empty, since it was a school day.

 Cute little birthday girl.💝

 So pretty. 💋

⛸⛸ 

❄🎂❄🎂❄

It wasn't too hard to get these pics, just carefully stand one up on the ice, fix anything the other doll needs fixing, pose her, pick up the first doll, fix and pose her, and then take your photos without getting on your knees, which was the most challenging bit. 😂 

I'll have a christmas haul post coming soon, followed by some more lego pics. 

Bye!

Do you like ice skating? Are you any good? I can barely move 

without losing my balance, lol. When was the last time 

you took pictures in a new place?
