Thanks!

Holiday Shopping Everyday Gossip

 MJ's first stop in Home Town is Carmen's house. This is the house which got me back into the hobby. My first two granddaughters were born and I wanted to refurbish it with them. I am on my second remodel and still working on it. LOL Two new windows were added on the second floor. You can see the one on this side.
 

Most of the locations you will see here and for the rest of these special posts are in progress or repair. You may see some of the progress or changes. Some, are the homes of the regulars, but may be used for something else while MJ is here.
I made the brown coat Carmen is wearing last year.
 
MJ and Carmen have a good laugh about her travels.

MJ describes her encounters with some of the handsome men she has met.
They talk and talk and talk
 Carmen and MJ get up early, after laughing and talking late into the night, to go shopping. Something they both enjoy. We will see a few familiar faces and places along with a few new ones.
Carmen took MJ shopping at Niecy's boutique

Customer to Niecy: Is this on sale too?
Niecy: Yes, this is also "buy one get one free." Will this be all?
Customer: Yes.

The shop is bustling. It seems everyone is doing their holiday shopping. MJ and Carmen leave to go to the shoe store next door.
Carmen made an excuse to come back to the boutique to price the necklace MJ liked. She just might buy it for her going away gift. Then she leaves again.




GLADYS BELL!
 Thank goodness MJ is in the shoe store next door or else she might have been the subject of a little gossip! Who knows?
 
Gladys  Bell waits until everyone has left. She is up to something I can tell!
Gladys Bell: Well, hello there little mama!
Niecy: Gladys Bell! You startled me! How are you?
Looking for something for Beth for Hanukkah?
Gladys Bell: Oh, ah YES, That sounds like a great idea!
Niecy: I have something she might like.
 Look at the look on Gladys Bells' face!
Niecy: These new bangle bracelets just came in. She might like these. I know she usually wears gold




 
Gladys Bell: So, uh, how have you been feeling these days Niecy?
 
Niecy: Well, to be truthful Gladys Bell I have been a little tired lately. This must  be the busiest holiday season I have had since I opened! I am not complaining! Just tired.
 
Gladys Bell: Oh, I see.

MJ IS HERE!

No, not Michael Jackson's ghost, Michael Jordon or Mary J, but...Mini Jazzi from down under! Taadaa! I was told she was to arrived last Wednesday. From Wednesday until Friday when she finally arrived, I worried like a mother hen. When she got here, I was so excited I could not open her box right away (yes, I know, I am goofy lol) When I did, I just took a peek then put her on a high shelf in my home office. My daughter and grands were equally excited! Last week, when I knew MJ was on her way, my daughter and I brainstormed some places for her to visit.
 
My dolls also have all kinds of plans for her!
 
MJ came bearing goodies for and from all of her aunties. I will share pictures of my loot. She arrived sporting an outfit made by Mary from her last visit. So far, she has visited 11 Aunties in various countries and states within the United States and still has several more to go.

 
Stay posted to see where her adventures in
South Carolina
 take her!

She told me she loved the wreath on the front door and wanted her picture taken there!
