Doll clothes for sale.


These are my girls, I have been making them new clothes. Everything is done by hand. I started doing this when my daughters were little and all their barbie clothes fell apart after just a week or so. I found that I could make better quality clothes from my scraps so I did. They've had clothes for years that are still together. So if you have a daugher or Granddaugher who loves her girls as much as I do please contact me via my e-mail patdavila@juno.com and I'll get them in the mail to you. Plus they are one of a kind! no two are alike. prices vary depending on how many pieces there are to an outfit.



Great for playing with friends or just running around town, this two piece outfit is cute and comfortable. The fo demin capri's are frayed at the legs with an elastic waist fit to the old barbie style body. and the fo vest is attached at the shoulders and sides with snaps down the back. cost: $8.00.

Your girl can say merry christmas in this wonderful two piece christmas dress perfect for a causual dinner with family at the holidays. The vest can be removed by unbuttoning the tiny red buttons on the front. cost: $8.00




This is a cozy blue skirt with 3 red buttons covering the snap closures. and a white and read top with snaps down the back. Perfect for a day at the office. cost: $8.00.

This is for my sister. I painted it
a couple of years ago and she loved
it. So it's now in a frame and ready
for her to hang if she can find a place.
I just hope it's not one of those things
that is only hung when I'm coming up.
he, he, he.

What a wake up.

This is what I woke up to this morning.
It is undisturbed and you can see we
got at least 6 in. It so reminds me of
High School in LaPine Oregon. I don't
think we ever had a winter with out
less than 5 feet of snow. Every year
here it amazes me when the schools
close with only an inch of snow and in
LaPine they didn't every shut down no
matter how much snow we got. even 23 years later I remember the winters
there with great fondness. My big brother Mike (gone now) use to love to
walk beside me going from our mothers to our grandmothers and shove me
into the snow bank along the side of the road. He got great fun doing this, I on
the other hand was buried over my head. you see the snow plow had already
been by so the snow bank was much deeper than the 5 feet that had fallen.
Such fun days.






Dec. 20 2008 I-5 south

We tried to go up to Tacoma yesterday and had to turn around and come home. The freeway was just too hard to drive on. In the hour we were attemping to go up we saw at least four cars on the side of the road and two stopped to put on chains and one accident. So we turned around and headed home to Vancouver. At one point a big rig drove by us and our front windshield was completely covered with mud this is the aftermath.

This is my new pie carrier


I haven't figured out how to do
the handle if I do one. I made it
so I can take a pumpkin pie to
my sisters for Christmas dinner
on the 20th of Dec.

I've been tagged

So, apparently there is a picture tag going around right now and Christina just tagged me. The deal is you go the the 4th picture in the 4th folder on your computer and post it with an explanation, then you tag 4 new people to have to do it on their blogs, too. So here it is:





Ok now for the explination.
For my forty-th birthday some
friends photo shopped my head
on Dorthea Bon jovi's body and
framed it for me. He's my not
so secret crush. This picture
sits next to my bed. I know.
