May in WI

Well, I was May's first stop in her travels! We had a lot of fun seeing the sights- the state capitol, a member of the cow parade, and even - gasp!- the American Girl Headquarters! (

)

Here are the highlights so far:

As a sidenote, I think some people may have been confused by some of my capitol pictures- I'm not in DC, I'm in WI. They do say our capitol building is like a mini-whitehouse, though!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures! I'm planning on posting more tonight and on Monday before I mail her off on the 30th to her next destination.

Awww, darn it! I tried to take some more pictures, but none turned out very well, and now it's too dark to use natural light without flash. I should absolutely have more up by Sunday night, though.

Aw, very cute pictures!!! I like that one of her in front of the capitol a lot! The one right below it is very cute too!

You did a really good job of making her look in scale to our wonderful capitol building! I can't wait for more pictures, because May is such a darling.

The American Girl headquarters one was a great shot ... it looks like a statement - though of course, American Girl may not be terribly amused.

I finally got around to uploading more pictures! This first set was taken at the home of my friend, Anielle.

Dresses sewn by me.

The following day, I met up with my friend Greeniebone and the Momokos saw the sights of Mount Horeb, Wisconsin!

Oops! Looks like a Blythe snuck in!

May with one of Mount Horeb's infamous trolls.

Oh no! Looks like that troll isn't being very nice to Whisper (Vanilla Wafer)!

I still have a few more, including May's trip to the Mustard Museum (seriously!) that will have to be saved for another day and posted in Flickr.

I will have a hard time parting with this darling doll, but, alas, May will continue on her travel route tomorrow. Next stop: California!

I love the new pictures!

May looks very cute with the other girls and the lilac-ish flowers!

The picture of her stretching is the most adorable thing ever.

All these pictures are so great, I love all of them!

I love stretching photo, too.
The monster one is so funny!

Do you get strange looks from people on the street?!

Thanks, everyone!

The streets were pretty desolate, but I figure most people just thought we were really wierd tourists. But I don't think the dolls were too unusual in a town choc-full of troll statues!

So far as other locations went, I just kept them in my purse until I could find a place where there weren't too many onlookers.
