Robinette's Royal Tea Adventure!

I was very happy to be taken on an adventure yesterday!
It was April 28, 2012.
It was the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's 1st anniversary.
Maman likes Royalty from Britain because of her British roots.
She is mostly Welsh and German but there is some British too!
William and Kate are the first names of the people we were remembering.
I got to sit at the lovely tea table.

Before the tea Maman and I looked at the lovely museum.
There are many rooms there.
In one room we found Princess Diana, one of the very best loved Princesses.
Isn't she beautiful?
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police was also in attendance.

We checked out the Titanic exhibit.
Here I am next to a model of this doomed ship.

Maman and I loved this room the very best.
We are a nautical pair!
It was a fun day.
Love from Robinette!

THE TITANIC 100 years ago!

100 years ago on this day, April 15, 1912, a big cruise liner sank in the Atlantic Ocean.
We live near the Pacific Ocean so this is far away from us.
The people on the Titanic ship were so excited to be sailing from England to America.
The Titanic was a HUGE ship and brand new. The rich people must have had fun before they died.
Nearly all of them did die.
That's because the Titanic hit a big iceberg in the dark night and it made a huge hole and the Titanic sunk in 2 hours and 40 minutes. People had said it couldn't sink. The iceberg proved them wrong.
There were only 20 life boats on the ship.
That is why most people died in the cold ocean.
I have never been on a cruise ship. Neither has Maman.

This is what I would have worn in 1912 on the Titanic, if I had gone.
I am glad I didn't go.
But I would like Maman to make me this dress.

This is Dalfina wearing the pretty dress.
It is #15 in the 1912 patterns at the Bleu Door Portal.
All the patterns are FREE if you wish to make something nice for your Bleuette.

Robinette

Here is me.
I am standing on Maman's night table with Zoe for Easter.
I love my new hat and my new dress and shoes.
Maman smocked my dress.
Isn't it pretty?

Maman was resting and she noticed how pretty the light was in the room.
I love pretty things too.
I can't stay in sunshine though as it will ruin my pretty complexion.
Maman has a pretty bedroom with many dolls.
Do you see Zoe?
Maman didn't let us stand here for long.
She thinks a Big Earthquake might happen soon.
She doesn't want us to fall.
Neither do I!
Love...Robinette!

Happy Easter!

We went outside today, on Easter Sunday.
It was very warm.
Maman said it was 17 degrees Celsius.
Zoe and Robinette hunted for eggs in their bunny jackets.

Here we all are, dressed up for the Easter parade on our way to church.
We each had something new.
It was either a new dress, or a new hat, or purse or shoes.
We are all very happy.
Tante Martha even put us on the Home Page at BSC today!

We hope you each had a blessed Easter.
