The Tall Dolls Have a Parade

 Dear Friends,

Since we were in Idaho on Independence Day, our annual Tall Doll parade had to be postponed until we were home again. This year's judge included Kaffeen the Wonder Dog, whom we brought from Grandma's (leaving her with only five more dogs), and Senora, the Evil Foot-Eating Kitten.

 The floats included entries from the Nature Bature Club~

 Miss Victory (portrayed by Miss Molly McIntire, of course)~

 

Miss Dorothy rode Matilda, the resident steed~

 And Becky Button Nose pushed her twin babies in the stroller~

                                                                 "Go, USA!"

 Ammon the brave and his foes, the sheep robbers~

There was a float for "Mormon Pioneer Women"~

 

. . .And for Miss Merry Hearts, as well!

 The dolls' postal service, Kitten Post was quite patriotic. . .

 In short, a lovely time was had by all.

We hope you enjoyed our little parade today. I can't wait to see next year's, can you?

Love,

Marqueta
