Our friend, Madeline.

Well, we think this is Madeline.

She has a nice new wig.

Or else it's her fairly new sister.

We are not sure!

But we do love her new bathing suit and pool ring!

Love from Yvette Marie

A new pool for us!

Oh, we are so happy!

Zoe and I and all my sisters got a new pool last week.

It is very hot here in Vancouver and Maman filled up the pool for us on Saturday.

Zoe and I played in it all afternoon.

We had such fun.

Here I am getting ready to go down the slide.

It was a little scary at first.

Zoe looked far away.

But once I got going it was lots of fun!

Zoe liked sitting on the pool bench and dangling her feet.

She had a Koolaid sippy drink.

I had frosty lemonade.

Do you notice our little palm tree?

Palm trees grow well in Vancouver's climate.

We have an even climate all the time.

Except for lately.

Zoe got brave enough to use the slide. She loved it too.

Once my other sisters get new bathing suits they can come out too.

Then we can have a real pool party!

We also tossed a pink ball back and forth.

It was such fun!

Love from Yvette Marie and Zoe.

BBQ at Centennial Beach!

On July 9, Papa took us all to a new beach.

It's Centennial Beach in Ladner.

Maman really liked this beach.

It had lots of shells. She even found two sand dollars!

Here I am posing by some wild flowers.

Zoe and I had a BBQ picnic.

Maman brought everything with in the car.

We even brought our boat!

It was a lot of fun at the beach.

Maman gave us a pinwheel each.

They blew well because it was very windy.

I found lots of shells too.

We wish all our Bleuette friends could come too!

I hope you are having a fun summer.

We are too now that it's hot outside.

Love from Yvette Marie xoxoxo

Summer bathing suits

We forgot to post yesterday. That's because something called Humidity hit us all really hard.

We didn't feel like porcelain dolls...we felt more like rag dolls!

We're not used to that feeling and we don't like it much.

Anyhow that's me, Yvette Marie, in the picture above.

Maman made this play suit for me with the matching sand pail. The suit is called Barboteuse.

This was last summer.

Here is Zoe in a 1933 LSDS bathing suit. Maman likes to try out all the different fashions from all the different years. We think it's fun too. She is working on a matching bathing suit for me too.
