16!

     Thank you so much AGMarket, for deciding to follow this blog! Whenever I see we have a new follower, I get really excited! :) Also, check out AGMarket's blogs; HERE is one that I personally really like! Check out the slideshows on AGMarket's latest post, they're really cool! Below is her really cute header on her blog.

     Also, I know I haven't posted much in the last couple of days, but I think I might take some pictures tomorrow, what do you think I should take pictures of, or what should my photostory be about? I'd love to hear you're opinions!

Spring Collage!

     If you haven't noticed, I have posted the spring collage, and you can't see much of it on the side, so here it is closer up:

Do you like it?

     Also, I hope you are having a good Memorial Day! Thank you to those who have served and died for our country, and those who are serving now!

-Emma :)

Congratulations Hannah!

     Here is Hannah's award for guessing G1950 in the Cozy plaid outfit.

     Congratulations Hannah! I guess this one was a bit easier, I'll try to make next weeks harder! :) Thanks for everyone who guessed!

-Emma :)

The Doll Guess #13!

     Yet again, The Doll Guess has arrived for the week. Like always, basic rules are: You must guess the doll AND the outfit and you only get another guess every time there's a hint. Here's the picture!

     Good luck! Also, PicMonkey has collages now, so you can be looking for a spring collage on the side bar sometime soon!

-Emma :)

Congratulations MissCpFreaks, Rose, and Christina!

     MissCpFreaks, Rose, and Christina all correctly guessed doll G1968 in the Western Riding Outfit and Hat, so I have decided to award them all because their guessing times were so close together, so here is their award:

     Hope you like it! Also, now that school is out for me, I should be able to spend more time on my posting and updating than before, though there will be a couple weeks where I will either be at camp or on vacation. Just a heads up. :)

-Emma :)

The Doll Guess #12, 2nd hint!

     Only Christina has guessed for The 12th Doll Guess, so as of now only one person is guessing, so I would guess if I were you, especially with this second hint...
1. The doll is wearing boots
2. The doll is wearing a skirt
     Hope this helps! Also, a couple days ago, there was a rainbow at my brother's baseball game, and Hannah took a picture of it, and I wanted to show it, but now I can't find it. :( Also, how many days of school do you have left, are you still in school? I have one day!!!!

Don't you love this picture? Remember to guess on The 12th Doll Guess! Thanks!

-Emma :)

Random Pictures!

     Well, they aren't all random, the first few are from when we went to the American Girl Place at Mall of America. And then their are also the random ones, so here they are: (Sorry they are weird proportions because I cropped Hannah and I's faces out of all of them)

2,069!

     Wow! Yet another breakthrough! Over 2,00 page views! That is awesome! Also, as of now, no one has guessed for The 12th Doll Guess, so I guess it's a little bit harder, so here is the first clue:
1. The doll is wearing boots
     Yeah, it's an interesting clue, but it will help. I couldn't get the linking to work, so look below for The 12th Doll Guess post.
     Also, my sister was trying to post some pictures yesterday, so I'll post those tomorrow. Remember to guess!

Picture Voting!

     As I mentioned in the last post, Christina is having a photo contest, the theme being books, and I want you to help me by commenting OR voting on the poll helping me decide which picture to enter, so here are some options:

Picture #1

Picture #2 (I know, it's a lot like #1)

 Picture #3

 Picture #4

 Picture #5

     Those are the options, I will take the results from the poll once I get some votes, and then I'll narrow it down, unless it's there's an obvious winner. I'll keep repeating this until I get one winner. Also, I let you vote for more than one because this is the first phase. Thanks for you help and The Doll Guess #10 still hasn't been guessed, hint tomorrow. Bye!

-Emma :)

Hint #4!

     Okay, I'm running out of hints before it becomes too obvious, so with that being said, here is hint #4 for The 10th Doll Guess:
Hint #1: The doll is a historical doll
Hint #2: She lived during the 1900's
Hint #3: She has brown hair
Hint #4: In the picture (BIG HINT->) she is carrying something

     In honor of American Girls Read-a-Palooza, here's a picture of a book I took a while back, and I was also looking for an entry for Christina's contest at her blog.

     Thanks!

-Emma :)

Donuts!

     Since we still have The Doll Guess #10 still going on, there will be no new doll guess this week, so remember to guess, new hint tomorrow.
    Also, here are some pics of my donut making last night!

 Mixing the batter

 My supplies!

PS. The black fork looking thing is what we used to get the donuts out

The first batch, a little excess batter was used :)

Most of them done. Some were drizzled, others had powdered sugar on them, and others were not yet decorated

     So that's what I did last night, and today since it was beautiful outside, I rode my bike for almost an hour :), I love riding my bike!
