Marcy showing off her splits and a shot of our room.
This is the "wall of fame" It shows how our Barbie love all began. The first pic is the only known pic of me with Barbie as a child. (They didn't have many cameras back then!) The photos progress to last years convention. The one of me holding a baby is me and Marcy on the 2nd day of her life, Cool, Huh? I am the crazy aunt who put the Barbie in her crib before she was born.
Here is me uploading and getting the pics on for y'all.

Competition room exhibits. Extraordinary as usual! The doll resembling the convention logo(red white and blue with star and dark glasses blue gloves black and white hat and boots) is mine. I won second place in the Cowgirl Chic catagory.
Y'all come back Saloon Event. Our Table, and close up of our table dolls from Hostess Lin Callahan

I was thinking we needed to be cow-pokes at the Saloon, but these gals saw it another way. They are the Saloon girls and so was their table doll. Aren't they cute?
