Books

This summer I have not gotten a whole lot of American Girl books at Half Price Books. When we go I have been getting movies and CD's instead because my sister just got her Ipod touch. But I did find the old Josephina Story Collection Book for $10 and I was really happy because Valerie Tripp wrote it but and she is coming to American Girl Dallas on Friday to sign autographs. i cant wait even though i have seen her before.

So i have not updated in a while because our internet is messed up so we have to go places that have WIFI or to the Library so right now i am at the library. On Tues day we went to AG Dallas for the Inner Star University Day and it was a lot of fun. we brought the two daycare girls and one of my moms friends and her daughter. we did the crafts and looked at all the new stuff! i only with the historical dolls came with codes for inner star. They also have a lot of new "AG Store Exclusive" stuff that i want like this red zip up dress.

June 21 i left to go to Kansas City for SkillsUSA National Leadership Conference i brought Samantha with me. On all my trips i have only brought my white dolls so on my next trip which is to Washington DC in September i will probably bring Addy with me. We had a blast in Kansas and my friends would love to hold Samantha and one called her "Baby" and another called her "Sam" and told her to call him "Uncle Thomas".

Nationals

so Monday i left for Kansas City, Missouri for SkillsUSA National conference and i brought Samantha with me!

Summer and 100th post

So life has been crazy like usually last week i was at leadership camp in the middle of nowhere and this past week i was at TLU for Texas Girls State and just got home tonight and then had a birthday party for my uncle and then saw Toy Story 3! Monday morning i am leaving for Kansas City, Missouri for SkillsUSA National Conference and i have not decided which doll i am going to bring. Right now my room is a mess because my uncle is moving out of it so i am moving around some stuff after i get it all situated i will take some pictures.

Also this is my 100th post!!! it sounds crazy but i am glad that i have kept this blog

New American Girl Store!

So i was looking on DollDiaries and saw that american girl will be opening a new Boutique and Bistro in in Kansas city this fall! what is cool is that i am going to Kansas city this summer for National in SkillsUSA and hopefully i will make it to Nationals next year so i can go when it is open! that is my goal!

Happy Birthday Kit!

Today is Kits birthday! and lucky for me i have two Kits so double the birthday! once the weather gets pretty outside i am going to take pictures of them but tight now it is cloudy and has been for about a week.

Meet Julie

Today i had to go to Half Price books to get a National Geographic for history class and the magazines were by the clearance books. i looked real fast and saw the Meet Julie book. i was about to not buy it but it was only a $1 so i could not pass it up!

American Girl Birthday Party!!!

Me with all my dolls!
Happy Birthday to ME!!!

Today i celebrated my 17th birthday at American Girl with three of my closest friends! it was a whole lot of fun. two of my friends met me at my house and then we headed out and met my other friend at the mall. then we looked around American Girl for a minute and then went to the Bistro. the host was shocked that all the dolls belonged to me. i could not fit all my dolls at the table so the rest sat at a booth. i love how now they give the dolls the little pink plates and the tea cups. there was not a lot of people in the Bistro eating but everyone there was celebrating their birthday. after we ate we had cake and ice cream. then i opened my presents. i got a white shirt (for my competitions), $20 gift card to half price books, 2 charms from James Avery, the memory board mirror from American Girl Crafts at Micheal's. after we were all done we walked around the store. i like how they have remodeled it with the hair salon up stairs. when we were taking the group picture we met some of the works we know like Richard who is the manager of the Bistro.

One YEAR!!!

So it has been exactly one year since i started this blog! it is hard to believe that. i was just looking at every single blog when i got to the end the date said may 14th and then it clicked that it was today. i am very happy that i was able to document all my things i have been able to do with my american girl dolls! i cant wait for more years to come!

My Birthday!

so yesterday was my 17th birthday and it was awesome! Tuesday night i had my family birthday party with also friends of our family. we ate hamburgers and hung out. i had a cute cake that reminded me of a marshmallow dipped in fondue like at American Girl. i got $45 is cash and some other gift cards and gifts. then last night i had my NSH banquet which was fun. all day at school i was getting sung to and one of my friends made me cupcakes and on Saturday morning my dad is going to take me to lunch and go shopping.

today i stayed home for the first half of the day from school so that i could get the stuff to make my invitations for my birthday party on Saturday which is going to be at American Girl Boutique and Bistro! i went to Micheal's and bought the big pad of scrap booking paper because it has one page that just says american girl all over it. and i also got some pink ribbon for the invitations. then when we got home we made them real quick and then i went to school. i invited 4 of my friends but only 3 can go because one has to go to a graduation which stinks but thats ok i know we will still have a blast!

i will post pictures of the invitation later.
