I'm Back!

Hey Gang, 

I’m back! I have gotten a good rest and I am ready to do a post or two. So while I was away, I read a few blogs but didn’t comment. I guess I can do that now. Not doing it then helped keep it stress free for me. I did a little shopping and just play with my dolls. It helped me worked out some stories and characters and I started organizing… again!

So while out and about I came across this doll! I will post picture of the other dolls that where there but for now here is Kenya!

I pick this one because of the suit and her complexion!  You have to go for a suit when you see one.  The box says Kenya Riviera.  There a few others model there.  I may go back if they go down in price.  This one was 20.00.

Close-up on the face.

I took some pictures out of the box so you could see her without the glare from the flash.  The paint job on the face is OK.  It is much better than clone dolls.
She has a really nice suite and top.  It is better quality than most clone items found out there.  I reminds me of the Janay and Jordon fashion when they first came out.  Her had band is not circular and it is tied together in behind her head.  It is long enough and wide enough to be warn as a shawl. 


She has articulated arms, hand and knees.  This would make her a great donor body but the neck knob is hard plastic and doesn’t have the flexibility of Barbie or Liv Dolls.  The neck knob snapped when I tried to remove the head.


Oh, and cute shoes!  The ribbons from the box can be used too!

Ok, so here she is side by side with Princess of South Africa on A basic MM body.  You will note that her had is much larger than Barbie.  It is about My Scene size.


Her necklace is pretty nice.  Her earrings and purchase are more like that of clone dolls.
Warning Nude Dolls Below!

Here she is compared to other darker complexion dolls.

Ghana Barbie, Kenyan Barbie, Kenya doll, Princess of South Africa.
She is more busty than most barbies.  Here is the back of the box.
You never know what the male doll will be like until you see him in person.  The Flava male doll's heads were a different size than the girl dolls. Even if TJ 's head is large, I still might be able to use him!  He wasn't at the store when I was there.  He might show up at Christmas.

Thanks For Looking!

more costumes.

He thinks he should work with this group to bring

Dominique is thefirst to arrive.
She spots a pretty ball gown.
Harry knows more women want to be princesses more
than any thing else so he keeps a supply of princess gowns.

Renee and Etienne arrive.
Renee and Etienne: Hello!

Dominique: You didn't tell me he was coming?

Renee: I thought it would be good to get a man's
opinion. Besides he wanted to pick out his own
costume. Pick out a few things and let's see them on you!


Etienne: Sis, I'm hurt!
He says to his sister-in-law.
Hey, what's up buddy? He says to the skull.

Renee: Aren't you going to pick out something
for yourself?

Etienne: I see what I want! I'll be HC Hammer!
Renee: You?

Etienne: Can't touch this! Da dumb, Da dumb
Can't touch this!

I need.... Oh lord!

Renee says to her sister: This is the cross I have to
bare everyday!

Renee: So I am to pay for that mistake the rest of
my life?

Da dumb, Can't touch this!

Dominique:Yup! That is what marriage is!

Dominique: OK! I could be Julie Andrews
from The Sound Of Music!
I love that movie!

Etienne: Isn't that producer-director guy going to
be there? The only thing you'll attract in that is a goat!

Dominique: "E", That is not nice! What about you
Renee, what do you think?
Renee: Naah Naaah!
They all laugh!

Dominique :I could be a chief!

Etienne:Now that would be a trick! How is
that you two are the only Creole women who can't
cook Creole! If I want good Creole food I
have to cook it!
The sisters exchange a look.
Renee says engorging him,
Renee: Dee, Where is the hat?
Dominique: Messes up my hair!
Etienne: What about a naughty chief?

KiKi: Hey Dee, that looks good on you!

KiKi: You must be Harry!
Harry: And you must be KiKi. It is good to meet you!

Tai: Hi E, Hi Renee!
Renee and Etienne: Hi Tai!
Dominique : That is a great costume! The lines on it are to
die for! Is there another?

Etienne: Dominique, this is Tai, she is
Matt's wife. She is really
a fight attendant!
Dominique: Sorry! That is a fantastic uniform.
Tai: A new young designer did it by the name of Francie!


Renee: You didn't tell me Matt was coming?
Etienne: He's my partner in crime!
Renee: Exactly!

Dominique :This one feels good on!

Renee: that is the old you! How about something more
modern!
Etienne: What about a naughty nurse?



Renee: Does everything have to be naughty?
Etienne: Pretty much!
Dominique : What about this?

That's It!

The End!

The Group Picture Of The Founding Members of W.O.A.A.A.

Hey Gang!

WOAAA


These are the founding members of W.O.A.A.A.
(pronounced woah ah) After many phone
calls, meetings, discussions, the forming of organizational rules,
and a lot of prayer, the Women of the African Ark Association
was formed. It was formed to “Honor their past through
culture, service and education”. The Ascension Ceremony is
done wearing white. Pictures of the ceremony are forbidden
but pictures are taken after.

OK!
I also wanted to show off these white dresses I purchased from
the dollar store too! They are supposed to be bridal dress
ornaments. But hey…they were a dollar! They inspired
the story.

I have had to cut my dolly budget until after Xmas.
So you will get to see how I manage it. Dolls like new things!
Also, I am working hard to take better pictures and better
pictures of my darker dolls. Man... these girls eat the light!
It is even harder with dolls of different complexions.



Kiki-President



Nubia-Vice President
Annukka-Secretary and her sister
Anelisa-Treasurer

OK, Thanks For Looking!
