Guess Where I'm Going - Retro Diner!

Did you guess where the dolls were going? They are going to....

A Retro Diner!

Wait, could it be? The Seaside Diner has opened in my town? Oh, it's another cute diner called Highway 55! Let's go inside!

Here are the Maryellens! Don't they look cute? :)

Time to order!

Ooh, yum! 

"Yay, my food is here!"

Here's my (American Girl Doll Crafter) food! It came in a 50's truck with a strawberry milkshake.

When the dolls were done, it was time to explore the diner.

"Elvis!" 

"I love retro posters! Don't you, Maryellen?"

"Yes!"

"One of my favorite 50's show is I Love Lucy! What's yours?"

Here are some photos of the decorations in Highway 55.

I love all of the posters! :)

Who doesn't know about Elvis, the king of Rock 'n Roll? I don't listen to Elvis, but my Grandma loves him... :P. There were about 5 giant Elvis posters in Hwy 55.

This is the menu. It's so cute! 

Look! This looks exactly like Maryellen's booth at her Seaside Diner! I had a photo of a blue booth, but I don't know what happened to it.... Sorry!

Hwy 55 also has cute chairs and checker floors! 

This is the pattern on the counter. It looks like the pattern on the table in Maryellen's Living Room Set!

The dolls had so much fun and we did too!

A Doll Play Date!

Today, our friends, AgMusician and Agducklover came over to play! AgMusician brought her new  Truly Me #61 doll named Susan, and AgDucklover brought her new Maryellen doll.

We had a lot of fun! Susan, Lanie, Maryellen, Grace, and Annie all say hello!

In the Great Outdoors!

"C'mon, girls. We're almost there!", Lanie said excitedly. They were taking a vacation this week in the woods! 

"Ooh, a cabin! How charming!", exclaimed Grace. "Let's go inside."

The girls laughed as they jumped on the bed.

"Yahooooo!"

 Then, Annie sat up and looked at the girls."I'm tired and it's already late. How about we go on to sleep?"

"Good idea!", replied Grace with a yawn.

Annie, Grace, and Lanie were snuggled up in their sleeping bags. 

"Zzzzzzz...."

"Grace, quit snoring!" 

"Zzzz....What, I'm not snor-... Oh, sorry."

The next morning was amazing! The sky was clear and the sun was shining. The girls decided to go to the playground.

"This is fun!", yelled Lanie as they twirled around on the tire swing.

Annie ran to the slide...

Grace sat on a rope climbing thing...

And Lanie was rock climbing!

"Hey, girls. Wanna go to the pool?", asked Grace.

"Sure!"

 Lanie sighed. "It's so beautiful here. I wish we didn't have to leave."

There was a long silence.

"I don't want to leave, either.", said Annie, sitting between Grace and Lanie.

"Well, we did have fun right?", said Grace.

"Yes!", the both said. Everyone laughed. It had been so much fun, and the girls hoped that they could come again!

American Girl and Fashion Angels - New Products!

Earlier this year, American Girl partnered with Fashion Angels  to make new craft products. Now, they are available online!

These are just a few of the new craft sets at Fashion Angels. I saw a few more at Kohl's. Do you like any of the new craft sets? There's one I really like. :) Can you guess which one is my favorite?

If you said the Beforever Design Book, you are correct! I love fashion, art and American Girl, and now, they are all combined in this amazing book! :) It would be fun to design clothes for the Beforever characters.

P.S. Lanie and I just got home from our vacation last night. I will try to post the story about it as soon as I can! 

Grace's Bakery - SOLD OUT!

I was looking at Grace today on American Girl and I saw that her Bakery is sold out! Her apron for girls is back ordered until October 30th, so if you are Christmas shopping, now would be a good time get your Grace items!

SHOP NOW!

I'm actually surprised that a $500 bakery would be sold out, but it was very popular! :) If you didn't get the chance buy it online, try checking the nearest AG store. American Girl might get more in stock, but we don't know yet.

Review - Grace's Travel Keepsake Case

Earlier this week, we stopped by Michael's craft store to get some clay and something for our vacation. My mom let us all pick out something, so I chose this adorable Grace Travel Case! It's time for a review!

I think it cost $20? Sorry, I don't remember...

This is the design on the front of the case. So cute! The hearts are perfect.

Back of the case.

The top has a black handle and some kind of thing that closes it. 

Inside, it comes with quite a few things!

This case has a lot of room in it! You could use it to pack doll clothes and accessories. It can easily hold 3 or more outfits along with accessories and shoes.

So many cute stickers!

Included is 4 sticker sheets, passport book pages, 1 envelope.

The 2 sticker sheets are very cute! There are even some for your dolls travel case.

A passport is included, but you have to put it together. 

A doll size travel case! It's perfect if you want your doll to match.

Grace has plenty of room for her clothes and shoes!

Overall, it's a very nice travel case. The colors and design are great and it comes with a lot of things!

I rate this 4 out of 5 stars!
