Paris!!!

While in Germany, my mom and I decided to take a day trip to Paris!








We got to see the Mona Lisa at the Louvre 












We heard the bells of the Notre Dame Cathedral (and were nearly robbed by a gypsy!), 












And we saw the Eiffel Tower!












My favorite part was going to a bookstore (across the street from Notre Dame) and getting four antique books (Lorna Doone, Little Dorrit, The Importance of Being Earnest, and a book of short stories). 








Here are some pictures I took while in Paris:

Germany

Well, I went on a little trip to Germany last month and took some pictures of two castles we got to go and see! :) It was an amazing experience to be able to go to Germany! Although it was cold, it definitely was not tourist season. Thus, no long lines! Inside the castles, I could just imagine living there! Oh...if walls could talk, those walls would tell plenty!

Michelle's Medieval Dress

Here is the improved version of Michelle's Medieval dress. I made a brown vest to wear on top of the dress. I slit the skirt up the middle and added a white underskirt that peeps through the slit. I also added trim around the bottom of the dress, around the sleeves, and around the bottom of the vest.
