Guess what I've been doing?

Yep ... creating a dolly chorus line.   5 - 6 - 7 - 8!

They can kick but that's about all they can do.  On the left is Dolly.  She has on a white satin-ish dress and blue plastic shoes.  Yes, the picture of fashion all the way.  Chatty Cathy is next to her and Chatty Cathy is next to her.  Chatty and Chatty were friends.  Looks like they even share shoes.

Oops, Tiny Tears is between them.  It isn't the real Tiny Tears... we couldn't afford the real one, but I didn't know any better.

Chatty Baby Brother and Dolly are next in line. 

And that's what I played with when I was about four.  Give or take a Barbie or two.  All named Barbie.

So why are these all lined up and pretending to be Rockettes?  Because it's "clean out the garage week" at the Kahles.  And the box that was irritating Rick the most contained all of these beauties.

This little line up really shows off my parenting skills.  Most of these kids of mine have matted hair and dirty, dirty clothes.  And missing clothes.

It's a wonder CPS didn't come after me.  They still could... once they saw that Chatty 1 is missing an arm.

And her panties.
