Meet Maryellen!

A girl in a candy stripe dress with strawberry blonde hair made her way up the stairs.

She was very excited, because today, she was meeting her new family! 

I wonder what they'll be like? How many sisters will I have?

Meanwhile, everyone was upstairs, talking about their new sister.

"If she doesn't come soon, I'm going to get her myself!", said Lanie.

"Just wait a few more days. I'm sure she'll be here soon.", replied Grace with a smile.

The new girl peeked around the corner at her new family. She thought they looked nice, so she decided to walk in.

"Hello! I'm your new sister Maryellen!"

Everyone was so excited! Maryellen was finally here!

"OH MY GOODNESS!!! You're here! I can't believe it! We're going to be sisters!", screamed Lanie, trying to say everything at once. "I know! I'm so excited!"

"First, let me introduce myself. I am Maryellen Larkin, and I love to do things in my own special way. I like to stand out from the crowd and be different." Hello!", said all the dolls. Then the girls introduced themselves.

"This is your new room, Maryellen.", said Lanie pointing to the the bed and the wall.

Maryellen was in shock.

  They made all of this for me? This is amazing! I'm speechless...

Maryellen sat on her bed. She opened her card and held the bouquet of roses that Lanie gave to her.

"Thank you all so much! I don't know what to say! I was a little nervous coming here at first. I've heard stories about dolls that go to families that only play with them once and then they're left on the shelf forever, but I'm so glad that you guys aren't like that." 

"Mom would never do that.", said Kaya. "She plays with us all the time! It's a lot of fun." 

"Really? That's the kind of mom I've been dreaming about!" 

"I'm sure you'll like it here, Maryellen. We're glad to have you as our sister!", exclaimed Grace.

"Awwww, thanks everyone! I'm so excited and I can't wait for my new life to begin!"

THE END!

Maryellen actually came in on Thursday, but my sisters and I have been so busy playing that I haven't had time to post! Sorry about the blurry photos. We were so excited! :D Maryellen is a beautiful doll and I'm very blessed to have her. I would like to thank my Mom for surprising my sisters and I with her. You're the best Mom and I love you! 

Stay tuned for a review on Maryellen!

Bonus Photos!

Maryellen came with her accessories and her first book. I'm almost done with it, so you can be sure that a review is on it's way!

After I finished taking photos, I wanted to take down Maryellen's hair. It was super curly after I curled it. I'm hoping to get Maryellen's hairstyling set. :)

Isn't it gorgeous?! The color is amazing. :)
