What has Nina been up to????

What has Nina been up to?  WELL!  Let me tell you.  She and Grandma have been very busy making jewelry for dolls.  Nina is Grandma's model for her lovely jewelry and headbands.  Nina wants to share with us all about what it takes to be a fashion model.

"Hello all!  this is Nina.  I wanted to share with you about being a model.  It is a lot of work being a model.  To be a good model you have to be able to stand patiently for long periods of time while your photo is being taken.  I happen to be very good at standing still.  Sometimes you have to have several photos of the same pose taken to be sure of a good shot!"

"When taking a fashion photo it is important to consider the color of what's being modeled and the background.  Here, Grandma Linda decided to use a dark background to show off the crystal tiara headband."

"I don't always look straight into the camera.  Here I am looking thoughtfully into the distance while I skillfully  display the jewelry set I am modeling.  It is important to look natural and relaxed."

"As you can see in this picture, a white background and white shirt were used to draw all attention to the colorful headband I am wearing.  Luckily I am very good at standing still.  It makes the photo-shoot go more smoothly."

"Here I am in a shot that gives the impression that I am running in the wind.  But, I'm not!  I am standing very still, but the hairdresser has styled my hair to look windblown.  My hairdresser is the best!"

"As you can see a lot goes on being a model.  I enjoy my job as a model and look forward to doing more work in front of the camera.

Well, that's all for now!  Grandma and I will keep you posted about what we are up to here in Texas.  Until next time, take care Y'all!"

Hugs n kisses,

Nina and Grandma Linda

Savannah Ann and Emma

Emma and Savannah Ann are best friends.  They knew they were best friends the instant they first met.  They love doing all kinds of things together.  And of course Savannah and Emma shop together.  They don't need to buy a thing, they just love looking.  but every once in awhile they can't resist something new.

 "Oh, I love this dress!!"

                                                              "It is your color, you should get it!"

"Look at these shoes...." 

Savannah Ann loves to drive an open top Jeep. 

                                               "Let's go down PCH.  I love the sun on my hair!"

"Wait for me!"  

During their drive they talk about the clothes they saw.  

"I wonder if that dress is available in other colors?"  

"I always look online.  We can check when we get back."

"I don't see it here.  Oh well."

"Look at that outfit though!"

Whew!  Savannah and Emma are ready to put their feet up after a long day out shopping and sight seeing.

After a rest Savannah and Emma decide to go out to eat.  Savannah and Emma love to go out to eat.  They would eat out every night if they could

YUM!

After a long day of shopping and eating Savannah and Emma love having sleepovers and watching their favorite movie....

TOY STORY!!!  

They love how Barbie and Ken first meet and fall in love...

 and also how Buzz Lightyear saves Jessie and wins her heart!

Savannah Ann and Emma have to say goodbye for now.  Aunt Sina has adopted Savannah Ann and she is going to live with her in Georgia.

Emma helps Savannah make up her bed and get ready for her big move.  Precious, Savannah's kitten, is helping too.  After all her things are packed it is time to say goodbye.

"Good bye Savannah."

"Goodbye Emma."

"Bye Savannah, bye Aunt Sina.

We will miss you until your next visit."
