Guess Where I'm Going!

Hi everyone! Today, the Maryellens are going somewhere with us and you have to guess where that somewhere is! Are you ready? Here's a hint.

This hint is from a 50's song on Maryellen's TV Console App.

"Sit down at the counter,

And you turn yourself around.

Wave to your friends, right and left,

And you drink that cola down. Do the ________ !

Do the _______ !"

Did that help you? I bet it did! :D

So, where is Maryellen going? Tell us in the comments!

GOTY 2016 Lea Clark Fancy Dress!

A dress with the Lea Clark tag is available on eBay! A few people have been bidding on it, and right now, the price is $31.20. The price could change during the time left to bid. Here are some photos!

I'm actually very surprised that this is part of Lea's collection. So far, I don't care for any of her items, but this is nice.

Back of the dress.

The design is unique. I like the embroidery. :)

Lea's tag. 

AG is using some different colors for Lea, especially green.

What do you think? Will you be buying anything from Lea's collection?

I might buy this, but I'm not sure. I would have to see it on Lea first. Kaya would look beautiful in this dress, though! 

Here is the LINK to the eBay listing.

This could just be a prototype; we don't know yet. A few of these dresses have been sold on eBay already. We'll try to keep you updated!

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.

The Big Pet Mess - Part 2

Today, I finally had time to get Part 2 posted! Sorry it took so long. :) I've been really busy.

If you haven't read Part 1, or if you forgot what happened, click HERE.


                                                                             ***

Sugar and Lulu began to walk around, looking for something to do.

Suddenly, Sugar squealed. "It's perfect! Let's go see what that box is."

Lulu and Sugar pushed the chair with all their might! They aren't very strong....

Some how, they managed to get the chair to stand up.

"Whoa, what is it?", asked Lulu in amazement.

"Let me read it....Hmmm, it's called Isabelle!", she replied happily.

"Help me put on some Isabelle, Sugar! I want to be glamorous!" 

"Ok, hold still please...."

Sugar grabbed a brush and dabbed it in makeup. Then, she started to make Lulu look "lovely",or at least that was what she thought....

"A little bit of  this...."

"And that...."

"Alright, you're done, darling!"

Lulu turned to the mirror on the makeup box.

"You..... YOU MADE ME GLAMOROUS! Sugar, you are absolutely great at putting on Isabelle!", shouted Lulu. "Now, I'll do you."

"Good, good, I'll add some of this...."

"And do a little bit of that..."

"Done, Sugar!", exclaimed Lulu.

Sugar's hair was tangled in rubber bands, and her makeup, or should I say Isabelle, was smeared all over her face!

"Ooh, la la! I look simply gorgeous!"

On the other side of the kitchen, BonBon and Pepper were making a terrible mess!

Pepper was digging through the freezer...

While BonBon was baking, well, we don't really know what she was baking.

"This should be done in.... 1 hour! Yes!"

Lulu ran upstairs and returned wearing Maryellen's sunglasses. 

"Look!", she said, showing off her new find.

"I want one!", cried Sugar. She dashed upstairs and found Kit's old baseball hat. 

"Now, my outfit is per-"

All the pets stopped. Someone knocked on the door.... 

What will happen next? If you like the story so far, please tell me. I might do more stories in the future. :)

Vacation!

Hi, everyone!

It's me, Lanie. Mom is busy right now, so I get to do a post. Guess, what? My best friends, Grace and Annie, are coming with me on a vacation! I'm excited, and Kaya's dog Pepper is staying with us too!
Do you know where I'm going? No, sadly it's not Paris.... We are going to the woods! I'll be sleeping in a cool cabin and maybe even get to go swimming. :) But, there isn't any wifi or internet out there, and Mom can't moderate comments or anything like that. So, don't worry if your comment isn't published. She's going to do all of that as soon as she can. Oh, and did you notice my new travel case? :) I love it! Mom is doing a review soon!

 I have to go! We're leaving now. Bye!

In Store Report - My Life As...

My Walmart has some new My Life As... items! Take a look.

Halloween costumes have arrived. My family doesn't do Halloween, but these would be cute if my dolls wanted to have a costume party or a play!

So cute! I love this one.

Umm, ok! I never thought that a doll would be Wonder Woman... :)

If you don't want to spend a lot on a doll poodle skirt, try this! It doesn't have a poodle, but it's still really retro!

A hairstyle highlight set.

The new Outdoors Doll! Her hair is a little funny...

Even thought she isn't new, I had to show her again! I love this doll, maybe because she reminds me of Grace and Sylvie. :)

This is a spa set. It's very cheap and way better than paying $100 for AG's spa chair.

Your doll might need a locker for school! This is adorable, don't you think?
