Little Additions

Soo... since I last wrote.. I have been... bottlefeeding three little babies four times a day, feeding a horse twice a day, doing school, going to youth group, hanging with my best friend.. LOL very busy! :D

So.. the babies are little goat babies :D we have... seven doelings and a buckling! :D

Serenade and Valentine Sonnet are both out of our doe Melody and our buck Buster :D Serenade is brown with black markings and Valentine is grey with white spots and black markings :)

Heavenly Hash and Rocky Road, named after the ice creams due to their coloring... are out of our doe Fifi and our buck Buster :) They are actually the oldest pair :)

Cocoa and Cappuccino are both grey with black markings :) (Did I forget to mention that every kid has white ears except Cocoa) These two are out of Trixie and Buster.

Then we have our last pair.. Midnight the buckling and Galaxy the doeling.. out of our doe Polly and our buck Buster. Both of these are black, but Galaxy has white specklings all in her. She's pretty but her brother is even prettier! He is oily black with white ears and muzzle and the tiniest bit of white on his stomach :) They are the youngest.

So... the ones I feed are our new buckling we bought (Tuscon Kid) and Serenade and Valentine :) They are very pushy and fry the life out of me sometimes! But I still love them :)

So that's like all other than I now have my heels for the dance! (No pics until the ball! :P) lol But they look gorgeous! LOL I love them! (The only reason there are no pictures.. is because I don't have time to take them, sorry!)

Love!

Dress!

So... as promised, pictures of me in my new dress! I made a few slight changes, but nothing very drastic. :) I was having trouble with my neckline so the bodice is barely modified.


Front... sorry about the bad lighting... its still coming up orange!


First time I ever used a zipper!


Side view... I think I have a better shot.....


There we go!


Nice full skirt :)



Well it"s late... so this is all! Maybe when its warm this weekend, I can post some pics of the REAL colour! lol

Love,

Fiftie's Prom Dress

Soooo... after much hard labor and no little sweat... I have made my dress! :D all that is left to do, is to add tighter straps underneath the tulle straps to ensure it stays in place ;) and tack the tulle down right at the edge of the zipper to hide it :) Right now is just a sneak peek... when I get it totally finished, you will see pictures of me in it!



By the way, my camera is lying... the dress is pink, NOT orange! lol well its not really pink pink, but its more of a red than a yellow, shall we say? lol



All told, I would say the dress, if I had worked on it without stop, took me..... 8 hours? I really am not sure, but it was a fast project. You think not, but that's because I didn't work on it for very long at a time! So I am totally excited for the ball! I can't wait (IT'S NEXT MONTH!) lol

I will post more pics of it soon!

Love,

Ruth
