Snow Day!

Hey Gang!

Playing in the Snow!

The Laurent children have the best of both worlds! Today
school was closed, so Tre', LL, and Stephanie played in the fresh
snow. As much as they love the snow, they love it even more
because they know in three weeks they will be spending Little
Christmas with their grandparents in the warm sunny
Saint Malcolm Island in the Caribbean.
It is a family tradition! Little Christmas is always spent at
the family's island home!

Stephanie: I love the snow! The snowman could use
some work!

Stephanie: He could be fluffier!
LL: Maybe some branches?
Stephanie: Tre', get some more snow!

Tre': Are you the snow boss now?
Stephanie: Tre', get the snow!

LL: What are you up to?
Tre': Getting the snow!

LL: Not Good!

LL: She's gonna kill you!

Tre': Only if she catches me!

What!

Stephanie: UGH! Tre'! That's it for you!!

Tre': Get off me!!
Stephanie: No!!
Tre': Help me, bro!

LL: If I help you, next week you two will gang up on me!
I'm staying out of it.
Tre': Tell Mom Stephie is sitting on me!

LL: Nope! I am out of the whole thing!!

This photo was sent to their grandmother, Camille.
She got an excellent laugh out of it!

OK, Thanks For Looking!

New man in my life! Updated!

Hey Gang!

Don't tell my husband but there is a new man in my life!

I purchased a Rocawear Darren this weekend. I wasn't going to the toy

store, it kinda just happen.  While I was there...guess who I saw.

Darren

I didn't realize I was running to the register until I saw people staring at me!

I am really not a MIB kinda girl. He was out of the box by the time I got to

my car.

My review

I could never get a really good look at him online! I couldn't tell what 

he really looked like!  The pictures on the back of the other Rocawear doll 

boxes did him a little better justice.  I think you do have to see him in 

person!  I have always thought that face paint on a doll is  what gives 

them their character and this is true for Darren. His head mold says 2009 

which is new. Although, he does have the Jamal/Steven face.  It is not 

quite as large as some of the balloon head males dolls but not as small 

as the original Jamal.  The face paint makes his features more 

pronounced! His lips and nose look broader than Jamal.  It gives 

him his own look even with the Jamal face!  His hair is painted on 

in a close-cut style which is often referred to as a "Philly".  It is 

different for the "Philly Fade" seen here on the Splash and Color 

Steven. (FYI-Philly leads the trends on AA men's hair fashion.) His 

eyes are hazel. His body is the same as the jointed AA Prince Aidan doll. 

He has a slightly redder hue.

2009 was a good year for the Mattel Barbie line and AA dolls. The Basic, 

AA Basic and the SIS lines are moving well!  

OK, untied sneakers have played out!

Great outfit! 

He is Louis Laurent! His family calls him LL.
