Stars and Stripes Forever

Happy Independence Day to my American friends!

Do you like my teensie Blythe doll I bought?  I've wanted a Neo Blythe doll for a long time but they are pricey and I couldn't justify buying one just because I think that they are cute.  I've always loved dolls.  I've had just about every kind you can think of.  Cher, Marie Osmond, Shirley Temple and Buffy from Family Affair.   I still have them all but they are well loved and worn.  I must've vegged in front of the TV forever as a kid!
So anyway, I came across this little cutie while shopping at TJ Maxx and she was on clearance for $5.  Apparently the Littlest Pet Shop series included Blythe which is made by Hasbro, I believe.  You know I'd love to find one in a brunet.  

Here's a shot of the banner I bought for the front porch (which still needs lots of work that involves painting and scraping ... just waiting for the 100 degree weather to subside)



Please have a wonderful holiday - be safe - God Bless America.  May He shed His grace on thee

God Bless America
Written by: Irving Berlin

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer.

God Bless America.
Land that I love
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America
My home sweet home.
