Garage Sale "find"

Hi Guys! Today, Grandma, Mama, and I went garage saling. I came across an Alexander Girlz doll from 2007. I knew it was an Alexander Girlz because it looks like Maddie but had different hair and eye color. I got more than just the doll but I'll show you all that later. ; )

She's a total fixer-upper but I'm willing to do it. :) Her legs and arms are surprisingly tight compared to her appearance. Her hair has been very badly cut and I really need to find a wig on THIS website.

I really like the dress she came with. I don't know what brand it is though. :)

I don't know how Maddie with take this. She's been bugging me since I got her about getting a new wig. ;) She'll freak if she finds out I'm rewigging this doll!

I will do an update when we rewig her so you guys won't miss it. :)

Final thing to say, I am planning on getting my new blog up before Christmas. I really working on ideas so I don't bore you for the first few months. ;) I've decided to reveal one of the five dolls participating...........KENDALL MATTHEWS will be one of five in our new blog!

( : Thank You : )

Toys-R-Us Princess and Me Offer!

I was looking on the Toys-R-Us website for good sales. (since I'm still kinda broke from buying Tess!) Has anyone heard of the Princess and Me 18'' dolls? If not click HERE . Well anyway, They are having some great deals right now! I'm not 100% sure that their clothes will fit your AG dolls. They are 18'' but it does also account on body size soo..........yeah.

There princess bed is on sale for 34.99 dollars. It was originally 44.99 so it is now 10 dollars off retail. You can see the bed HERE . It is a pink canopy bed.

I finally got around to doing my dolls' Christmas photos! Sadly, I couldn't get all of my dolls' pictures because their lost in cyberspace! I did get: Ginny, Kit, Josefina, Lanie, Julie, Ivy, Kendall, Anna, Hunter and Tess.  Oh and just a side note here, most of the photos did not turn out well and came out rather fuzzy because they were in front of my window! I still couldn't do it outside so a window is the next best thing right? I hope you like them!

I have a blog coming hopefully before Christmas but I'm not 100 percent sure I'll be able to do it! It will be 5 of my dolls doing their own individual posts. I picked the most diverse personality so you can get their perspective on life.

Who are the 5 dolls you may ask?

Well that's a secret!

Delay........(and contest!)

Hi everyone. It's pouring down rain here right now! Which means I cannot do the photoshoot right now. I'm thinking about doing it inside now. I ask my mom what the weather would be like the next few days and she said "Just like it is now" in which I smacked my head into the wall! I wouldn't ever dare to get my dolls wet! I mean, it looks like were living in London, England!!

Aside from that complete mess, Emma from Blog Designs by Emma is having a contest! The prize is a new blog design! To enter you have to comment on her blog saying I would like to enter and you have to do a post about it like I'm doing!

Christmas Tag!

Hi everyone! This evening I was tagged by Beast's Belle from Never Grow Up: Doll Guide and this is the first time I've ever been tagged so I'm really excited to do this! :)

1) What is your favorite part of the holiday season?

Mainly the decorations and having my Mother put on the Christmas station two months before Christmas! :)

Christmas decorations are always so uplifting and cheerful. We always put up our wooden nativity on our front yard. Music is also such a way to get you into the spirit of Christmas and celebrating Jesus's birth!

2) Who do you celebrate Christmas with?

Mainly my parents and I share it with my grandparents and relatives that they invite. :) Recently we've been sharing Christmas with some of my friend and their parents.

 Very rarely we spend it with my father's side of the family in Massachusetts. I love my relatives in Massachusetts! :)

3) What is your favorite gift you have ever received?

I had gotten Julie and Ivy on Christmas and I was so happy I almost cried! :) Both Julie and Ivy are still a few of my favorite dolls. :)

4) What are your favorite Christmas Carols?

"O Holy Night" by Josh Groban or Charlotte Church, "Home for the Holidays", "Silent Night" by either Micheal Buble or Gloria Estevan, "White Christmas" and "Mannheim Steamroller". :)

5) What is your favorite Christmas food?

Definitely Grandma's homemade Cherry Cheese Pie! :) Also I'm absolutely addicted to mashed potato's! ;)

6) Can you sleep on Christmas Eve?

I kind of depends on what gift I think I'm getting. ;) But mainly yes ever since I stopped believing in Santa Claus. :/ I mean don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against Santa I just don't believe he exist!

7) When do you wake up on Christmas morning?

Probably around 8:00 after a "lovely" wake-up call of my parents shouting "MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!" :D

8) What is your most memorable memory?

Once when I was 7-8 I came downstairs after my parents feel asleep and waited for morning to open my presents on Christmas Eve. I sat in front of the 9 ft. tree for hours! :D In the morning my parents found me sleeping next to the tree. :)

9) What are you Christmas traditions?

We pretty much change them every year by doing different games and such! :)

10) Do you have a real tree or an artificial tree?

I only remember us having a real tree once in my life. (Which isn't that long......but still!) We have had a 9 ft. artificial for a loooong time!

I tag:
Emma
Jasmine
Karenmomofthree
Taryn
Mackenzie Rae
and anyone else who would like to enter!

I hope to see your answers soon!

Beauty and the Beast Squinkies : )

This morning my mother and I went to Toys-R-Us to get presents for my friends. They were running a good sale on Squinkies so Mom told me I could get one. :) I was originally going to pick the Avengers because I love Captain America and Thor. (The movies anyway.) :) But I came across a Beauty and the Beast 12 pack and just had to get it! I got a little over excited and opened it in the car! ; )

Once Mom and I got home, (after about 4 other stops this morning) I took some photos to show you all. :)

 The pack came with 4 different Belles. In my opinion, they should have gotten rid of the Belle in the pink dress and replace it with a "Prince Beast".

This Beast is adorable!

 Side Note: He is not that yellow in real life : )

 She looks a little young for a 60-70 year old, right?

 Chip

 The Wardrobe?? hehe :)

 I love this Rose Vase Squinkie!

 Lumiere! My favorite chracter. (besides Belle of course!)

 I think his name is Philip?

 Belle vs. Thumb

One more good thing about these are that they don't have a strong smell like the ones that are in the quarter machines. (But hey, you get what you pay for right??) That smell makes me absolutely light-headed! They all came with glittery bubbles. :)

Today was not good weather wise so I couldn't take the photos today for my winter photoshoot. :( It was really gloomy and by the time the sun came out it was going down. Oh well! Tomorrows a new day! (with hopefully no rain!)

I thinking about getting the Ariel pack when I get more allowance. (Because right now, I'm broke!) If your thinking about getting a pack you really should and right now Toys-R-Us has taken off 4 dollars and is selling them for 6 instead of 10! :) Your dolls will love them too!

I must show Tess these! She loves Beauty and the Beast!

( : Thank You : )
