I know I know been ages since I have posted anything here ....life just gets in the way once in awhile of things we really want to do...
Hope everyone is having a lovely Holiday Season....
We sure are..... it is the first Christmas with our New Doggie...'Sofi' this January it will be a year since she came into our life.... and we love her to pieces....
After we lost our precious Tess La Rue ....our hearts were so broken we thought we would never have another dog....but we were wrong.... Sofi came into our lives totally unexpected ...and we truly feel we were given a Great Gift in her love and being.... Our lives have begun again...
As for Dolls this past year....in 38 years this is the least amount of dolls we have worked on in our whole career .... again, life got in the way...did loads of remodeling around the house, gardening, and just in general enjoying life...
But we are ready to hit it again...after this studio redo I am in the middle of.... boy I tell ya , you hit 65 and all hell breaks loose.... which is good, must mean I have found my second wind and don't appear to be settling down anytime soon....
So Out comes carpet, new cabinets, paint, and better organization ...turning 65 did tell me one thing...I don't handle clutter and no organization well at all any longer....
So I look forward to new exciting things coming from the studio, finishing up some long standing commissions and hugging Sofi tightly and often..... Sounds like a perfect life to me...
Have a good one and a Bright and Extremely Shinny New Year...
Jodi and Richard...Sofi Too!

Hi Jodi, thought I'd comment on your lovely blogpost. First of all: 65??? Seriously? You look amazing! And what a sweet dog Sofi seems, she's beautiful too. I'm so happy she came in to your life so unexpectedly but has been such a welcome new familymember. I'm very sorry about the loss of Tess, I can imagine that must have been devestating.. A new studio sounds great and I hope you'll both be creating lot's of amazing dolls like you've always done in it. And of course you to the best of holidays and a great 2016!
I had an inkling this morning to take a gander over here to see what my LM has been up to. I'm so happy I did! Sofi is precious--just like her mama. Superman and I moved to the four corners area near Mesa Verde where I was born. DO YOU REALIZE HOW STINKIN' CLOSE WE ARE TO YOU NOW?? I suspect a road trip in my near future to sit in a tipi with my beloved LM. Closed my fb acct in June so email is best for now. I'll send you an update soon but mostly wanted to tell you HNY and 65 looks like 45 on you. Know you are loved and thought of always with so much joy I can lift off and fly! xoxoxox love from your very own one-of-a-kind LM
I see this.
