Happy January

Hey guys, sorry for not posting much. I guess it kept slipping my mind. I have some homework to finish-blah. Penmanship and math-yuck! I really don't want to do it but I have to...

I hope everyone's 2010 is going well so far. It's almost Feb already.

Cherished Playtime (Melissa's doll site) has a Facebook group now :) It's awesome and is called Cherished Playtime Fans. It has 10 members so far :)

Other than school for us dolls, nothing too much has been going on. We did great in the Nutcracker performance. It was a lot of fun as always and I don't think I made too many mistakes ;) The winter festival in general was fun as usual! It was only one day because the first day, it snowed a lot. But that's okay. I always love going to it-it's just not the holidays without it!

Gwen Thompson and Sarah Williams and Anna Larson moved to Star Valley, on Christmas. Gwen is Grandlinda's doll and Sarah and Anna are Melissa's-Anna is a Ty kitty. Ooh and I got a Mini Ruthie doll for Christmas/birthday! She's so pretty; she and my mini Nellie became best friends instantly!

Oh, Gwen and I have a ton of things in common: 1. We both have blond hair 2. We both have brown eyes 3. We both are in 5th grade 4. We're both shy and 5. we were both born on Christmas! It almost seems like we should be long lost twins or something but we're not related at all. It's just such a major coincidence. And, I mean, she's nice and all and we get along...but still! But, I came here on Christmas 2005 (and am awesomer, lol!) There's only one Susie Kent that I know of-me and many Gwen Thompsons. But anyway...

I have to get off the computer now, before I get in trouble for not doing my homework. I'm supposed to do it before Sunday, so I get it done on time but I have a bad habit of procrastinating.

Wow, none of us have been updating this lj...so I shall. Christmastide is upon us. Our tree is up. It is modern, with lights and such, but I also live with a modern cousin and my aunt is modern, though I think once she gets new outfits, she'll be semi historical. We've brought down Noah's Ark and play with it daily while we listen to Christmas music. We listen to a variety since we've got colonial me, modern Megan and Aunt Martha and 1824 Mexico, Josefina, living together.

Anyway, the annual Star Valley Winter Festival is tomorrow and Sunday! 'Tis so exciting! We are again performing Selections From the Nutcracker and this year, I am Clara :) A few of the Water St. crew is in it, too. Our performance is tomorrow night! I think a couple of the songs will be video-taped and we're doing a photo story of it.

Well, I have to go help Aunt Martha bake cookies for the festival. Then I've got to feed Penny and work on my gift for Josefina and...there's just so much to do before Christmas!

Anyway, not much is going on in Star Valley. We're starting to plan for the winter festival already! Julie, one of our friends who doesn't live in SV, might be doing the pre-show music this year. I did it last year.

Um...everything else has been pretty quiet both in SV and out. Gabby and Nicki are both at the farmhouse and will probably come back in a week or two and then either Addy or Josefina will go to spend time with Missy at the farmhouse. I hope after them, I might be able to go but there aren't any promises.

Oh! I can't remember if I posted this already or not (so sorry if I did). Last week, Missy got me an Uglydoll! I got Puglee. She's pink and looks sorta like a pig-and best of all she's a straight-A student like me! She loves to read, write and do math. I thought that was so neat!
