Kellan goes to the beach(IMG HEAVY)

[famedglory]

I apologize now for how long this is going to be. And we're only half way through the week so I know they'll be some pictures later as well.

Kellan spent the drive down to the beach on my lap. Yellowing be damned, he's my happy traveling companion.




The first day on the beach was sweltering and Kellan was happy to share my towel:


The dollieh gang is staying on the desk. The little wicker couch and chair were in the cottage when we got here. I think the woman who owns this place probably has a few dolls of her own(but I'm guessing porcelain) tucked away in her own home based off of some of the other decor choices.

Waving from the front porch as we set off around the yard for a little shoot:

There's a strong artist community on this island, and as a result there's sculptures everywhere:


With the Buddha:

Don't blink:

Ella and Kellan chillin under their umbrella:


Also, here's a picture of a framed silhouette hanging in the kitchen:

Thanks for looking! More coming later!

It seems he had himself a blast. Great pictures! :D

That looks like a lot of fun!

Great pictures. Everyone of them is alive and interesting.

He is so cute! And you MUST take dollies on vacation, otherwise they get cranky. I would rather have a yellowed doll (which is frankly not as big of an issue as it used to be anyway, I think resins are a lot more stable than they originally were) who is happy and has had a lot of fun that a pristine one who never gets out of the box.

Thanks everyone! Yeah, the idea of them sitting on a shelf and not every getting out makes me sad. I'm really working on taking more pictures as part of making sure they're all getting more time.

Anyway, here are the pictures from today! Basically we just stayed at the house and had a "recover from sunburn/bug bites" day, which was fun and there's lots of interesting things in this tiny house.

Kellan relaxing on the little wicker couch:


On the desk he found a little butterfly charm with a wing missing:



On the drive down we had stopped at a Target and I found a little Harry Potter lego thing. Kellan had fun putting it together:


Okay, so this next one needs some explanation. There were these antique metal monkey toys on one of the shelves when we got here. They really freaked out both the husband and I so we put them in a drawer, but I pulled them back out for a few minutes to get a shot with Kellan. He's not to sure about these new acquaintances:

^For the record, I couldn't get a picture that picked up the streaks of red paint on these creepers faces and eyes. Also, their heads swivel.
And Kel with the pretty bowl of coral:

Nice pictures and what a cute place to stay! Hope it's nice and cool for you.

[cyanrae]

t's ridiculous how adorable he is! The six picture confirms this! Bet you guys had a lot of fun together!
