This box was packed eight years ago, and moved four times — once across the country from Los Angeles to Westchester, NY, and three times in Westchester.
The “L” on it means living room, and this was the eights box of about 100 I packed into two rented PODS in Los Angeles.
Landon was six month old, and I flew with him to New York, while Don drove his truck cross country. My car and the PODS made it to Westchester a few days later, and that started our life here, close to Don’s family.
I liked living in Los Angeles for 10 years, but I haven’t missed or regretted our move for one second.
It’s crazy that I moved this box that many times — it was about time to finally open it.
What a pleasure it was to rediscover some dolls I had totally forgotten about!
Here they all are now in our Blue Cottage.
The doll made out of fabric with the red legs and the tiny doll with the wooden ball head are dolls I’ve had since childhood.
I bought the two dressed in white in Germany, and all the other ones in Los Angeles.
This is Andy. I think I bought him at a craft fair. Glad to have you back, Andy!
And definitely don’t miss this post: Vintage Treasures and DIY Ideas from the Country Living Fair.
