Rummaging through my childhood

I finally got around to going through a couple of boxes that I brought home from my parents house at Thanksgiving. Normally going through my childhood things makes me a bit sad, but I actually had fun with it this time. I was suprised that some of these things had not disentegrated, as many of them are at least twenty years old.

This was my favorite doll. I can't remember her name, maybe my sister will remember. Penny, maybe?
UPDATE: My sister called tonight to tell me that the doll's name is Honey. Also, Twittering Bird had the same favorite little Baby Honey.

I think that my Granny Lucille, who passed away this summer, made this.

I had forgotten about my passion for making balloon animals. I am thinking about picking up the hobby again, just so that I can make this "bee".

My mother used this pattern to make me my angel costume for my kindergarten halloween costume competition. I won.

A quiz from my music theory class.

My favorite Barbie. I loved her, because she had brown curly hair, like me. She was unfortunately decapitated during a skirmish with GI Joe.

I made this dress from the sleeve of my pajamas. Where did that creativity go?

I had the same doll and it too was my very favorite! I carted her around everywhere.

I called her Baby Honey.

Weird....Yes, my sister just called and told me the doll's name was Honey. I knew it was something with a Y.
