A Story in the Upper Story

Miss Felicity

Happy National Jelly Bean Day!  Just in case you didn't know....jelly beans are my one weakness.  I love jelly beans!  

Today I am going to show you how our dollhouse is coming along.  It is just the right size for sesquipadalians and we love it!

A perfect house for sesquipedalians.

You can't miss it.  You see it as you come into our peoples' house.  We like the location because we can see what is going on at piano lessons.  Sometimes we even have other sesquipedalians visit us!
This week our resident carpenter (Mr. Bush) added on the upper walls for our music room.  We are thinking of having a chandalier made to hang over the piano.  What do you think?

Miss Felicity and Miss Lula visiting in the music room in their federal costumes.  
Our little dolls are playing "Heart and Soul on the piano, as the cats, Freckles and Butterball, and puppy, Bach, listen.
The picture on the piano is our favorite composer, Hoagy Carmichael.
Lula has inherited the picture on the wall, a painting by Mike Hickman.

Rose and Ivy are in the dining room with our little bird, Alouette, and our chihuaha, Tremelo.  Don't you just love the Lady Bug carpet we found?  We are going shopping to look for antique butter pat dishes.  Maybe some shelves on the wall above our hutch?

Rose and Ivy are getting Tremelo to sit up.  The little bird, Allouette is singing sweet songs in his cage.

Karen is trying on hats in the powder room.  She adores hats.  She thinks this one will do just fine to wear to church.

Karen:  I'm ready for spring!  
Now to go out and see pop-corn popping on the Apricot trees!

And of course, we find our mischievous Isabelle playing in the hat box!

I adore hat boxes!  So fun to play in!

Mini Caroline and Marie-Grace have our piano tip.  This week we are working on remembering the bass staff guide notes ---

Top line - A

Middle Line - D - Hey, diddle, diddle, D's in the middle!
Bottom Line - G

And of course the two dots on the bass clef tell us the F line!
