What is She Doing?! #10 — Fourth of July Edition

Happy Fourth of July! I hope you all had goods ones. It rained here, but it’s OK — my family wasn’t planning anything.

Anyway, for my Fourth of July post, I’m doing a patriotic What is She Doing?! Here is the photo:

01-DSC_1085

This is the picture you’re going to caption. Everyone is in red, white, and blue, and they seem to be circling two American flags. Emily, the only Brit in my doll family, is off to the side. Beyond that, I have no clue what they are doing.

If you don’t know how to play “What is She Doing?!,” here are the rules:

Leave a comment with one or two captions for this photo.

On July 11th, I’ll announce the winner.

There is no prize, this is just for fun. And my amusement.

Caption away!

Everyone had to have Fourth of July portraits in front of the flags, of course.

Tracy, please take the underwear off your head.

Fine. It was dirty, anyway.

Ugh!

Much better, thanks.

Isabelle, dear, do you think you could put down the pompoms?

But, Mom, they’re so patriotic and cute!

I see, but they’re a little distracting, Izzy . . .

Emily got her picture taken, too, though she was confused and a bit disgruntled.

Don’t forget to leave captions for What is She Doing?!

  2. Emily: “Guys, come on! You asked me to coordinate this parade since you all wanted to be in it, and you’re getting out of line! Nevaeh, you’re going to recite the…. Pledge of Allegiance, right,and Ivy, you’re doing the USA National Anthem. Get ready!”
    Caroline: “This is crazy!”
    Molly: “Ack, I forgot the last word of the AHG creed! I think it’s r–…… Tracy! WHAT is that on your head?!”
    Tracy: “What do you mean, Molly?”
    Molly: “TRACY!”
    Tracy: “Oh, yeah, I was kind of playing dress-up, but I didn’t have a hat, so…”
    Molly: “I cannot believe you, Tracy!”
    Emily:”We’re ready to start girls! Listen up! Molly and Tracy, please stop arguing, and Tracy, for goodness’s sake take that underwear off your head!”
    Tracy: “Fine, fine..” *takes it off*
    Emily: “Alright, here we go!” *looks at Tracy again* “Why did I ever agree to this?!”

    That’s pretty bad, but all that I could think of, so… :P

  3. All of the dolls except Emily: WOOOOO-HOOOOO!!!!!!! AMERICA! OH YEAH!
    Emily: *comes outside* Er, Molly, dear? Please explain? I do believe you all have finally lost it. I should have seen this coming.
    Molly: *reluctantly puts down flag* We’re celebrating because America won the Revolutionary War!
    Emily: Ah, I see. Well, I guess I need to put underwear on my head and dance, as well? Even though the British lost?
    Molly: If you like. You can celebrate because chocolate was invented. That’s revolutionary too, right?
    Emily: YES. YES IT IS. CHOCOLATE FOREVER!!! DOES ANYONE HAVE SOME EXTRA UNDERWEAR?

    P.S: It's rather late at night, so I may read this in the morning and wonder what on earth I was thinking. XD

    Tracy: Saige, like my hat?

    Saige: Um. Well I guess it’s fashionable…HOLD ON A SECOND! IS THAT MY DIRTY UNDERWEAR? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU TRACY! EW!

    Emily: Whoa, I knew Americans were weird, but I didn’t know they were THAT weird!

    Emily: NO! Neverrrr!!

    Emily: Here it is! *hands Tracy a packet of tea*
    Saige: COME ON! DOWN WITH THE BRITISH (no, not you Emily) AND UP WITH AMERICA!

    Tracy: YES.
    Izzy: THEN THEY DESERVE TO DIE.
    Caroline: Umm, no. They don’t. everyone back to the flags. *picks tea bag out of the pond*

    Molly: Don’t worry, we’re just being crazy Americans. (to everyone else) A one and a two, and a one, two, THREE!
    All the dolls (excepting Emily): ♪♫Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light… ♪♫

  7. Emily: Umm, just out of curiosity, why are you parading around in Union Flag colours?
    Molly: We’re not! Red, white and blue are the colours of the US flag.
    Emily: And the Union Flag. Which came first may I add.
    Saige: How do you know that! Americans can come up with cool flag colour ideas and designs too!
    Tracy: Yeah! Just like this awesome hat idea! I didn’t have a blue one so I picked up the first thing I could see red white and blue near me! That’s creative colour usage!
    Caroline: Those were in my laundry basket…
    Emily: I rest my case.

    (Not part of “What is She Doing Entry) I’m actually British visiting the States so when I saw this I knew I would have to respond. Tell Emily I understand how she feels.

  8. This is a slightly different way to look at it:

    My doll Kimia: Hey! Aligaile! Come look! The neighbors seem to be performing some kind of Tribal Neighbor dance.
    My doll Aligaile: Why are they dressed like that?
    All dolls but Emily: USA! USA, USA, USA!
    Kimia: It’s not even July yet…

    I don’t know if it’s allowed to make it in June or from my dolls point of view, but I don’t remember any rules saying I couldn’t. Sorry if I broke the rules…

  9. Happy Independence Day!
    Thank you for making Tracy take the underwear off her head. She looked cute, but her portrait was much better without.

    Milling around getting ready for the Independence Day Parade everyone is humming My Country Tis of Thee; Emily is confused why she hears the music for God Save Our Queen.

    Tracy: Yes…….

    *Every one groaned*.
    Isabelle: hmph, no one appreciates fashion!
    *Every one lines up*.
    Isabelle: Savannah what are you wearing!!!
    Savannah: what’s wrong with it?
    Isabelle: it’s not exactly fashionable.
    Savannah: Can you just take my pick?
    Isabelle: whatever!
    *click click*.
    Isabelle: Next!
    *Tracy steps up*.
    Isabelle: That’s not the hat I put on your bed!
    Tracy: I know. I lost it so Emily’s dirty underwear was the next option.
    Isabelle: You know what? The underwear looks so much better!
    Emily: is almost my turn for pics?
    Isabelle: almost. Look how great Tracy looks!
    Emily: Is that my underwear?!?
    Isabelle: I know right she looks great!
    Tracy: I hope you don’t mind me borrowing it.

    Caroline”Tsk tsk, tsk no one is listening to Emily.”
    Meanwhile Molly and Saige are having an argument about pet custumes. Molly “pets shouldn’t have to go in custumes.”
    Saige “but they look so cute so it doesn’t matter.”
    Molly is getting frustrated so she goes over to Tracy ”
    Umm….Tracy you know your wearing underware right…” Tracy replies” ya I know…. wait I think it might be yours.”
    Molly “WHAT GET THAT OFF YOUR HEAD RIGT NOW!!”
    Tracy “just kidding it’s actually Saige’s.” Saige over here’s and storms over” TRACY RENE GET THAT OFF YOUR HEAD!!!”

    MJ “ok we’re going to do the fire works in five minutes, ok??
    and WILL you put those Pom Pom thing ps away!?!?”
    Isabelle ” okay dokey, and MJ are you sure these fire works are safe?” MJ says over her shoulder “Not that safe but if the plan goes right we will be safe from the wrath of Caroline. Izzy bumps into the fire works BOM BOM BOOOM!!! Izzy and MJ sneak back to the party only to get greeted with a-not-so-happy Caroline

    Molly “It’s so cruel why would anyone do that?”
    Saige ” Ugg…. It’s obvious that you have no fashion sense the reason is they look cute.”
    Molly flushed with anger says “I’m going to go help Emily with this parade, and with sarcasm adds “your fashiones”
    On the way Molly bumps into Tracy
    “Umm….. Tracy you know your wearing underwear as a hat??”

  15. so this has already passed and yes i stole some ideas from other people but who cares
    “OKAY, PEOPLE, GET IN AN ORDERLY FASHION!” shouted Isabelle over the commotion of the Fourth of July party. “TIME FOR PHOTOS!” She straightened her blue top and surveyed her sisters. Savannah hastily shoved the remainder of a blueberry cupcake into her mouth and hurried over. Emily, the only Brit of the house, groaned and defiantly kept her place off to the side.
    “Em?” enquired Molly. “Could you please get us some tea?” Emily nodded and shuffled into the house.
    “Emily! Come back!” called Isabelle. Molly elbowed her.
    “Just let her.” said Molly.
    Emily arrived a minute later, grasping a teabag in her hand. Tracy batted the teabag out of her hand, into the pond. “AWAY WITH THE BRITISH TEA!” she screamed.
    Molly giggled but then, seeing Emily’s cross look, sighed, “Trace….don’t do that. The British are respectable people. Plus, you’ll kill the poor fish.”
    “ARE THEY BRITISH FISH?!” said Tracy, fixing the lopsided red, white, and blue underwear she wore on her head. Molly shrugged. “THEN THEY DESERVE TO DIE!”
    “DOWN WITH THE BRITISH—sorry, Em—AND UP WITH ’MERICA!” Caroline plucked the teabag out of the pond and sighed, “No, Trace, they don’t deserve to die. Now get back to the flags, please. You heard Isabelle. It’s photo time.”
