Baby Cotton Candy’s U.S. Tour Update/Photo Thread!

These pictures are so cute!!!!! :] Thanks for sharing!!! I can't wait to see more of her adventures!!
 
Gingerbread--thanks for posting the pictures of Baby Cotton Candy! Unfortunately my computer at home is REALLY old and slow, so I haven't been able to actually see the pictures properly yet (they're not loading on my computer), but I'll try to view them on another computer sometime this week. From your captions though, it sounds like you had fun!

So I finally got onto a computer where I could view the pictures. (I really need a new computer at home!) Gingerbread, those are really great fun pictures! Thanks for posting them!
 
Our little family had fun with Baby Cotton Candy! Here are the pictures of her stay, finally :)

Here she is on the porch with Odie before we leave for the day

There is a spot with different game piece sculptures, like Sorry, Monopoly, Chess, Dominoes, etc. We took some shots with those.

I told her it was the city of brotherly love!

That silly girl thought it would be a good idea to feed the birds...

We decided to end the adventure when this vagrant pony approached us with ill intentions...

I love the evil eyed vagrant pony, and look at those pigeons in the background running for their lives, after bullying BCC!!

We're rolling out the welcome mat...

Yikes!! :hysterical:

Great pictures!! I really like the LOVE one... I may have to take my travelin' Bowtie to do a similar shot, one of these days. It's so perfect for the City of Brotherly Love. ;)


My nephew and his wife, after their (giant) wedding (in giant cathedral), had pictures taken in front of the LOVE scuplture. They're great pix!!
 
*jiggidy jig* SHe arrived! Here she is with her welcome wine-and-flowers, welcoming committee (Tickled Pink, Nephie, Rinoa, and Moonglo ), and since she was feeling just a little homesick, she's gazing at jupiter_oski's page. Tomorrow we'll meet the other furry and finned denizens and go see some cool stuff. Maybe even a girls' lunch out... *Squeak*! We're gonna have so much fun. :)

Great to hear that Baby Cotton Candy is safely with you, DialgaBritesMom! Thanks for welcoming her. :) Aw... she misses home...

Participants--By the way, if Baby Cotton Candy's hair gets messy during the journey, I really don't mind if you decide to comb or brush her hair to look nicer. ;)

*edit* DialgaBritesMom--Just wanted to mention, I love the picture with the flowers! :)

Great pics everybody, I can't wait to see what she does next!
 
She's napping right now. I wore her out today, even had to re-tie her ribbon! Just wait'll tomorrow! Muahahaha!!!
 
Update--Baby Cotton Candy will be going in the mail today, on her way to KitKatVintage!
 
Very pic heavy!

Ok,you already saw BCC's welcome pictures.
After she arrived, first order of business was
a good night's sleep. Next morning, her big
brothers tried to help her comb her hair:
picture.php


And she played with some cousins. Wow, lookit
all the toys!

picture.php


Then she met some of the locals. Some were more
friendly than others...
Jessie (wishing for breakfast):
picture.php


**whew* Close call.

picture.php


Aslan (still too sleepy to think BCC is pink
kitty treats):

picture.php


Detmer the koi, standoffish:

picture.php


Then she came to work with me. Like most kids,
she just *had* to take a photocopy of herself.
:-/

picture.php


And here she is checking out the tow trucks. As
my husband says, "Sooner or later, everyone
meets the hook." Not usually so
up-close-and-personal, though!

picture.php


Oooooh, big ones...

picture.php


Then while we ran errands, we checked out the
local tourist attractions.
First the Mercer Museum, our local "castle",
which holds a fine collection of early American
implements. We didn't go in, but she was wowed
by the size.

picture.php


Then a stop at the Michener Art Museum. See her
up there?

picture.php


Unfortunately, the Muppets exhibit is already
gone, otherwise she would have gotten to meet
Kermit!! But there are other things of interest
on the grounds, such as The Face (she was
getting a little nervous, there)

picture.php


And the "transition" sculpture which looks more
like a blue whale to me. BCC concurred.

picture.php


The Michener Museum used to be the Bucks County
Prison up until about 24+ years ago or so. Here
she is on the door playing jailbait. :)

picture.php


On through town past the Courthouse, aka The
Toilet Bowl (circular courthouse with
rectangular office bulilding attached. *Who*
designed this without considering its
appearance from above??) If you notice the banners with faces hanging from posts? All through the Courthouse grounds are banners like that, with images of soldiers our area has lost in the Middle East from 2001 on. :(

picture.php


Then we drove past Fonthill, which was the home
of Henry Mercer who collected all the
implements in the Mercer (aha!) museum, and who built a bunch
of really weird buildings like this one:

picture.php


It's full of things made at the Moravian
Tile Works, all made from clay mined not far from
here. The tile works is still in operation! The tile works is in the backyard of Fonthill,
so we stopped in the gift shop and found lots
of horsey things. BCC was very understanding
about not getting any souvenirs.

Another weird building...

picture.php


Another cool door...

picture.php


And inside the weird building with the cool
door are... PONIES!!

picture.php


picture.php


picture.php


picture.php


And other less interesting things, but she was
polite and let me look, and even acted
interested.,

picture.php


picture.php


On the way to lunch, we passed one of the Miles
of Mules mules, whom she had to stop and see.

picture.php


My what big nostrils you have, grandpa!!

picture.php


Oh look! Look Another one!! (they're all over
the place around here, but she finally
understood we couldn't just stop the car in the
middle of the intersection to go visit).

picture.php


She wasn't thrilled with our lunch...
MORE SUGAR!

picture.php


WHERE'S THE OATS??
picture.php


Once back home, she met the buns, Hash Brown
(the light colored one), Pooka (he's the one
who sits in the food bowl in my avatar; the
shadowy ears in these pics) and Nephilim (the
darkest one).

Finally some decent food!!

picture.php


picture.php


The mail brought a new arrival, whom she
greeted. Any guesses who it is?

picture.php


Nap time at last, with some old friends.

picture.php


Later, she wanted to go canoeing but I had to
explain that it's not feasible at 37F (3 C).

picture.php


Then she got to meet El Rey Del Sol. Or pay
homage, more like.

picture.php


And before she snuggled into her package to
travel off to KitKatVintage's house, she
checked out the Valentine's from the Valentine
card swap.

picture.php


We'll miss your cheery lil face, BCC! Come again
sometime.
