there was a little girl, who had alitlle curl on her forehead,when she was good she was good, but when she was bad she was horrid!! ( old nursery rhyme)
This happy looking man was seen at Cahirmee horse fair in Buttivant, County Cork. Perhaps he had just sold a horse; perhaps he just bought one; or, then again, perhaps he is just generally of a happy disposition!

Every so often, one must post a straightforward shot of one's stunning daughter because she never takes a bad photo and because it's the best time of year to showcase the curls and their golden highlights and finally because her depth and beauty really cannot be "captured" but merely glimpsed... and so here's a glimpse.

Magic Curl Barbie is in the middle, the other two Barbies are there to model the extra clothes :) There was also a fashion in the stuff I got from my husband's cousin! I was so happy to find out who this Barbie was! Thank you! You know who you are :) She got her spa day and I couldn't be more happy about her!

Look closely and you will see one of natures reminders of the dangers out in the woods and by the waterways. Always be on the lookout for snakes. I was frustrated with the fact these limbs were blocking a good shot and just about grabbed them to move them when I noticed what was hiding inside. I'd already had already walked around them to the other side and was lucky I didn't get bit.

My 2013 Disney Parks Snow White 12'' Doll has been completely deboxed. She is standing, supported by a Kaiser doll stand (not included with the doll), and is photographed from various angles.
I bought her at the Disneyland Main Street Emporium on July 7, 2013, for $19.95.
From the neck up she is almost identical to the 2012 Disney Store (DS) Classic Snow White. Her face seems to be the same as the 2012 DS Snow White. Her hairdo has been made a bit neater and more movie accurate by reducing the size of the side curls, and moving them further down the sides of her head. I like her face better than the 2011 Disney Parks Snow White doll, but her hair isn't as nice. Her body from the neck down is the same as the 2011 Disney Parks Snow White, that is she has non-articulated arms and rubber legs with internal knee joints and fixed angled feet. She is less posable than the DS dolls, but her exposed arms and legs look better than the fully articulated 2012 DS doll. Her outfit is a mixture of the ones on the old Parks doll and the 2013 DS doll. It is much more basic than the old Parks outfit, since it is missing the cape, the petticoat, and the cloth panties. Her old outfit also had a velvet bodice with gold trim, rather than a glitter covered satin bodice with no trim. Her collar is now double thickness white satin whose layers are glued together and unhemmed, rather than the hemmed double layered satin collar of the old doll. Her pale yellow skirt is less full and a bit shorter, and has a floral pattern covered in glitter, similar to the skirt of the 2013 DS doll. Finally instead of the lovely shiny gold heels of the old Parks Snow White, the new doll has pale yellow heels that match the color of her skirt. She is a decided downgrade from the old Parks Snow White doll, but I still think she is an attractive doll. But at twice the price of the 2013 DS doll, she is much less of a value.
Following is a detailed comparative review of the 2013 Parks Snow White Doll versus the 2011 Parks Snow White doll. They are also compared in less detail to the 2012 and 2013 Disney Store Classic Snow White dolls. The review is divided in various physical categories.
Head and Face: The 2013 Parks Snow White doll has same head and face as the 2012 Disney Store Classic Snow White doll, with a couple of subtle changes. Her small brown eyes are a little brighter, with a thinner ring of dark brown surrounding the light brown main area of her iris. She is glancing to her right. She has thick black eyeliner, no eyeshadow and thre short thick eyelashes over each eye. She has thin black eyebrows. Her round face has a small button nose, small mouth in an open smile, with full red lips. The color of lips is a little deeper than the 2012 DS Snow. She has full cheeks very lightly rouged. She is very pretty and much more movie accurate than the 2011 Parks doll.
The 2011 Parks Snow White doll has a longer face, with cheeks that are not as full. Her lips are a deeper and truer red, and her mouth a little more open. She has more color in her cheeks. She has larger eyes, with much larger pupils, that are looking straight ahead. Their color is a grayish darker brown than the 2013 doll, whose eyes are a light reddish brown color. The 2011 doll has four black lashes over each eye, and black eyebrows that are bit thicker than the 2013 doll, and further from her eyes, to help reduce the apparent size of her forehead. She is a very pretty doll, but not as movie accurate as the 2013 doll.
Hair: The 2013 Parks Snow White doll has short jet black in a hairdo that is based on the 2012 Disney store doll's hair, but modified to be neater and more movie accurate. The upper and lower side curls are now smaller and lower down her head. They are now more like the movie character's hairdo, and less like that of Princess Leia. Her hair has a lot of gel to keep it in place, a lot more than the 2012 DS doll, which makes it rather stiff and hard throughout. There is considerable variation in the hair style of different copies of this doll, so it is important to carefully choose the doll with the best looking hair, as it makes a big difference in the look of the doll.
The 2011 Parks Snow White doll has a very movie accurate bobbed hairdo. Her jet black hair is a bit longer than the 2013 Parks doll, reaching her shoulder in the back. It is curled innward at the ends. There is a small side curl on either side of her head, by her ears, that is stiffened and sewn in place. Elsewhere there is little or no hair product, so her hair is quite soft and smooth.
Outfit: The 2013 Parks Snow White doll has a much simplified outfit than the 2011 Parks doll, and is quite similar to that of the 2013 Disney Store doll. The dress is based on the iconic Princess dress of the movie character, but has various inaccuracies. Her bodice is dark blue satin covered in blue glitter, with puffy short sleeves made of red and light blue satin stripes. The end of the sleeves are trimmed in gold, which is a nice touch, except that they are mostly hidden by the puffy sleeves. The 2012 DS doll actually has more movie accurate sleeves, that are dark blue satin with red oval appliques. The neckline is slightly scalloped. Attached to the bodice is a very tall white satin collar, which has a pleasing rounded shape, as opposed to the square cornered collar of the 2012 DS doll. However, it is stiff satin, which appears to be two layers that are glued rather than sewed together, as was the collar of the 2012 DS doll and the 2011 Parks doll. The skirt is long and full, made of pale yellow satin, with a floral pattern (with small images of apples) covered in iridescent glitter. It is longer than that of the 2012 DS doll, but doesn't quite reach the floor. It can hold its shape fairly well due to the glitter and glue, but could definitely use a petticoat. It's pale yellow color is quite movie accurate, and the glitter pattern is very pretty and very sparkly. It is more accurate and more attractive than both the 2012 and 2013 Disney Store dolls.
The 2011 Parks Snow White doll has a very beautiful and elaborate and fairly movie accurate outfit. She has a dark blue velvet bodice with gold trim. The sleeves are longer than the 2013 doll, almost reaching her elbows, but are also made of red and blue satin stripes. However, instead of gold trim at the ends, the sleeves have red satin cuffs. There is a large white satin collar that is double layered and hemmed, and reaches around the front, whereas the 2013 collar starts at the sides. It is not as tall as the 2013 collar, and is more movie accurate in size and shape, as well as looking more finished. Her skirt is floor length and very full, helped considerably by the 3/4 length tulle petticoat underneath. It is also rounded at the top, rather than the simple A shape of the 2013 skirt. It is made of golden yellow satin, densely sprayed with gold glitter. It looks glamorous, but the glitter unfortunately sheds quite a bit. Draped across her shoulders is a 3/4 length cape made of dark pink velvet, with a pink satin liner. It would have been more accurate for it to be dark blue on the outside and red on the inside.
Shoes: The 2013 Parks Snow White doll has pale yellow high heeled shoes. The 2011 doll has mirror finish gold high heeled shoes, which look fabulous, even though the other doll's shoes are more movie accurate. To be more movie accurate, her shoes should be pale yellow, with medium heels, and bows above rounded toes.
Accessories: The 2013 Parks Snow White doll has the same yellow hairbrush with red gemstone as the 2011 doll. They both have red satin ribbons in their hair, with bows that are a little left of center. The 2013's bow is considerably larger, and looks like bowtie. The 2011 doll also has white cloth panties.
Body: Both the 2011 and 2013 Parks dolls have the same body. The arms are not articulated. The elbows and wrists are slightly bent in fixed positions. They have rubber legs which have internal knee joints and fixed angled feet. Her hip joints allow her to sit down with her legs together and her back straight up. But her knees can only bend about 40 degrees, so her legs stick out when she is sitting. In heels, the dolls stand 11 1/2 inches tall. Their skin tone is medium flesh tone.
Packaging: The 2013 Parks doll box is now rectangular, at 13'' H x 7 1/4'' W x 2 1/2'' D. The back and bottom are of double thickness cardboard, to which the doll and accessories are attached. There is a clear plastic window attached to the backing via tabs, through which the doll can be viewed from 3 sides and the top. On the back is a current Disney Princess promotional image, with background scenes from Disney Parks specific to each Princess. The box is fairly easy to take apart without damaging it, and it is sturdy and reusable.
The 2011 Parks doll box is semi-cylindrical, which measures 13 3/4'' H x 7 1/4'' W x 4'' D, so it is considerably larger than the new doll boxes. The front of the box is clear plastic, that is semi-cylindrical, so the doll can be seen from all sides except the back. The top cover is also clear plastic, and is removable. The backing with the doll attached is a separate piece that is completely removable from the box, which is necessary to debox the doll. The deboxing is trickier than for DS dolls or the 2013 Parks dolls. The box is reusable, and is sturdier than the 2013 Parks doll box.
2013 Disney Parks 12'' Princess Dolls Released in Disneyland
Disneyland Resort Anaheim (DLR) finally has the new 2013 Disney Parks 12'' Princess Dolls, which have been available in Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney World since May 2013. They are still priced at $19.95 each, which is basically twice the price of the equivalent Disney Store doll (which is frequently on sale for $10 each). They are a joint release by Disney Theme Parks Merchandise (USA) and EuroDisney (Disneyland Paris).
As of June 30, 2013, DLR had 7 of the 10 new dolls available: Cinderella, Aurora, Mermaid Ariel, Wedding Ariel, Belle, Jasmine and Rapunzel. Missing were the new Snow White, Tiana and Tinker Bell. All of the old versions of the dolls were still available. They were still selling the old (2012) Merida doll that was joint Disney Store and Disney Parks release. There hasn't been a new version released by Disney Parks so far. I bought them at the World of Disney store in Downtown Disney. The Emporium on Main Street in Disneyland had no Disney Parks Princess dolls for sale.
On my visit to DLR on July 4, 2013, they had 2 more of the Disney Parks Princess dolls available for sale: Snow White and Tiana, who are shown here in their unopened boxes. There were no new Tinker Bell dolls (in fact Tinker Bell was missing altogether), and the Merida doll was last year's model.
I purchased the new Parks Tinker Bell doll on July 7, 2013. This completes my collection of all the newly released Parks Disney Princess Collection dolls.
I will photograph them boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. They will also be reviewed and compared with other versions of the Disney Princess dolls.
