life ~ a photostory

  ~ a life update in the form of a photostory ~ this is truly Julia's aesthetic, entirely by accident, most of her closet is blue and white stripes. she's always either wearing her airplane propeller necklace or her dream necklace, wearing double dutch braids.  Once upon a time, there was a girl named Julia. She was a dreamer, one with a good imagination and wide horizons. Some of her happiest days as a teenager were spent taking photos of dolls, lying in the street to get the perfect angle. Her dolls were like built in friends, companions wherever she went, on trips and vacations and outings.  As she grew up, Julia grew busier and busier, and high school was a lot of work. But she had goals and she did everything she could to reach them. One of them was graduating two years early, which took up a lot of time and energy. After hours upon hours of studying, she finally graduated.  Taking a gap year beginning in 2020, the weirdest year of the century, she had no lack of other thi

The M&M Show, Episode 4: Chalk One Up!

****************************************************
 
Welcome back to the M&M Show!
Today, we're outside. Doing what, you ask?
 

Well... we're just having some fun...

Just doing stuff we've seen other awesome bloggers doing....

Chalk play!

Alright, how about a classic game of twisted hopscotch?
Twisted what-huh?

You'll see. Just give me a second.
Okaaaay..

I'm still working on it, little Miss Impatient.

And now for some fun squiggles....

Woah! That's cool! So just... follow the numbers, I guess.

Uh-huh. I'll demonstrate. One...

Two.. whoah! Almost lost my balance there. Note to self, don't look around while hopping on one foot.

Ten! Ta-da! Your turn, Madi.

Okay.... *does it* That was easy! I want to make one now.

Okay, so this is how you do it. Ready? Just follow the footsteps.

Hop in the circle...

Hop out and almost do the splits..

Right foot hop in..

And out - oahoo!

And left foot!

And both feet!

Tada!

That was fun.

Ooh, toeing the line, are you Madi?

Oh, oh, oh! Let's draw a house!

A what? A house? Okay... a square for the house and a triangle for a roof.
No, this is a game that Kit and I used to play at our old house. You draw it kinda like a floor plan.

Okay. Let's do this!
 

TEN MINUTES LATER..
Oh, hello there! I'm your guide, Madi!

Today I'll be showing you the M&M Manor.

Watch out for this step. Here we go, onto the porch.

This is Mia's patio chair, and mine is over at the other end.

Come on inside! Let's head down this hall.


Alright, our first stop is our living room. The door is right here.

Here's an overview.

We've got a nice couch here..

... and a flatscreen TV...

And a coffee table...

... and hot chocolate - the orange cup is mine and the yellow is Mia's.

Okay, moving onto the kitchen!

Stove and oven...

...sink...

...fridge with the cookie jar on top...

Oh, and this is our table with the stools. Just use your imagination. It's quite fun!

This is my very bad flower...

Okay, let's head down to my room!

Ah, I've got a nice bed with a swirly comforter...

Oh, and this cool yellow bean bag!

Okay, this one takes more imagination, but the square is my chair and the rectangle is an aerial view of my desk.

Here's a nice view of my fuzzy, striped rug.

Oh, hi there Mia! I hope you don't mind we're in your room.

I suppose I don't mind.

This is my toybox for all my dolls and doll things.

A narrow bookshelf..

And my chevron bed!

I also added this ballet barre so I can stretch, just like this!


Come on outside! Hey, Mia, draw a garden.
Um, okay. It's not going to be very good.

Are those Christmas lights?
Ha. ha. ha. They're tomato plants.
 

Well, I hope you enjoyed our house tour! Oops, I think I got some chalk on me!

So did I. It doesn't matter. How about some chalk art now?
 
And I am... Mary Poppins!


My nice orange umbrella...

Puffy white clouds in a nice blue sky..

Um, I'm a ballerina on a stage. I guess.

Uh, with a tutu that makes it look like my pants are on fire.

Hey, I added a red curtain for you!

Skateboarding! Woo-hoo!

Like the colors?


A nice walk on a bridge.


Across a valley and river..

Well, that's all for today! Hey, we've got two very exciting announcements this week!
One about the DNA Rewards and one about another competition!
Don't forget to vote for the cutest and loveliest dolls!

    1. XD That was so hysterical, I was laughing so hard that the lines for the red curtain (ahem, it ended up orange. How was I supposed to know it was orange and not red?) were not straight at all. I'll tell her! *shouts to other room* She says thanks.
      Yay! Maybe we'll do extra special episodes even after July. Maybe once a month or so..
