Academy Awards Night in Dolton Heights

I will admit I rarely if ever watch the Oscars, but I do like to see the
stars all glitzed up walking the red carpet. So this year I decided to set
up my own scene for the occasion.
VOICEOVER: Hi I'm Denton Shaw live on the redcarpet at the Awards Show. Here we are at the entrance viewing the stars all dolled up (pardon the pun}for the big event. I can't tell you how much in awe I am over seeing all these
big stars in person! Oh look there's Richard Silkstone the MC for the event.
Let's see if we can get an interview with him. "Mr. Silkstone" he calls but
Richard keeps walking.


Couples on the Red Carpet


Beth and Peter Silkstone.

Denton continues unabashed by the brush off: "Look here comes Richard's
younger brother Peter Silkstone who is up for an award tonight. With him is
his wife Beth, who he met while making this movie. It would be nice to see
him win for best actor."




New young couple arriving at the awards.



Now let's go inside for the show!









Richard Silkstone the M.C.
Does he look nervous? LOL

Valentines

A BELATED HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
Brianna and Chris took us out for dinner Thursday night, and after we got home and everyone was in bed I decided to play for a bit. I brought out two playline Valentine Barbies (actually found 3, that's why the population changed), and redressed my Monte Carlo On Location doll and Suite Retreat. They got the Bond and July birthstone gowns. Diane-doll is wearing her Dolton Valentine Ball gown. Hope you all had a nice day!

More Fun In the Snow

Well today was a lovely day to go outdoors and play. Yes we had lots of snow! But it was sunny and actually quite warm. The snow was thick and wet but I didn't even need a coat! As you can see the Venetians had a great time out in the snow.
Climbing the hill. The snow was waist deep and so climbing the hill proved to be quite a struggle. Don't worry I put plastic bags over the dolls feet and legs so they would not get wet and damaged! Actually the snow is hip deep on me! At least I didn't need doll stands LOL
Here Ashley is going to be a dare-devil and try going down head first! At least it will be a soft landing LOL

Fun In the Snow

As I mentioned on the Yahoo Blog I took a couple of Venetians out to play in the snow. By the time I got them dressed and the snow shoveled (into a hill) it started to get dark. So I didn't have time to bring everyone out to play like I wanted. Tomorrow hopefully I will be able to set up the whole scene. Meanwhile here is Anthony and Ashley out tobogganing. Climbing the hill! Boy this is hard work!
Here we go!!!
Can't you just hear Ashley screaming all the way down the hill! LOL
I had trouble positioning them and didn't want to force bending her legs in case they broke in the cold.

24 Fans of Jack Bauer

Guess who I found today? Yep the one and only. He came straight from prison to Dolton to live! LOL

Actually I had no doll birthdays on this day and went around "trying" to find a doll to buy. After giving up I went grocery shopping and on a whim stopped in at a comic book store called Altered States. I had bought my Jesse Ventura dolls at that store many years ago and hadn't been back since. I guess 'Jack' was calling me LOL







What do you think of him? Great likeness eh! He comes with 2 hand guns, his famous briefcase, cool sunglasses and of course a cell phone. And two extra hands, fists closed.










As you can see by the next few pix, the gals of Dolton have swarmed him LOL
"Put those guns away Jack and come with me."









"You don't want her! Come with me Jack Darling!"

"Ohhhh Jack!"

Population Increase

Had another shopping spree day. MFD called and said my Kittens were in. No not the 4 legged feline kind but the 2 legged "doll" kind. Plus I went shopping for playline dolls too. Got the Bratz gal I had been eyeing for awhile, which now was on sale.
Pix later on the Dolton blog. Oh and another sweater and slack set arrived too.

New Awesome Toys - WOOHOO!

Wow. Just as I hit "publish", Blogger ATE MY POST. Now I have to start over and I am unhappy about it. I don't feel like typing it all over again!

*sigh*

Wanted to show off my new guys. Back in '06, I had ordered the Medicom action figures of Edward Elric and his younger brother Alphonse (in armor form) from the anime series "Fullmetal Alchemist". When these two newest Medicom FMA figures were announced, I had to pre-order them. They arrived today!

Here is everyone all together:

L-R: Armor Al, Human Al, Edward and Colonel Roy Mustang

They are so SO impressive!

More impressive figures--L and Light Yagami from the anime "Death Note".


L-R: L and Light....and a random kitty. :D

I'm thinking of getting another Death Note figure, Misa. Depends on whether she'll still be available once I pay these four new guys off. Ah, but they're worth every penny because they're all so beautifully detailed!

When spring comes, my dollhouse is getting a severe cleaning and rearranging. I have many new residents to move in properly. I think I'll need more Rement food and dishes.
