Reader Submission and a Tag!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while! I've had a lot of computer issues, but I'm working on them;)


Maria, one of AGA's readers and owner of one of my favorite blogs, My Simple Sweet Dollhouses, sent me some ADORABLE pictures of toddler Anna and Elsa! Here they are:

 This one's my favorite;)


 Thanks Maria! These pictures are so sweet!

Speaking of sweet, Maria also tagged me in the Beachy Blogger Award! Thank you!

What is your favorite hobby? This is so hard! I do ballet, violin, piano, orchestra, ice skating, theater, swim, photography, writing, and movie making. I think its a dead tie;D
(Be honest) Do you like getting gifts or receiving them? Honestly, giving gifts. i love watching people's faces light up when you give them a sweet gift. But don't get me wrong, i like being on the other end too;)
What is your favorite beach activities? Exploring! I want to be a marine biologist when I get older, so I love sticking on my goggles and looking at the fish underwater. And I lovelovelove taking pictures at the beach!
What is your opinion on AG's prices? Steep. But for the most part fair. Give or take a few items, you really get what you pay for with AG. Their products are really good quality, and with about 75% of their products, I'd be happy to pay the price.
Dog or cat person? Both! I love playing with dogs and snuggling with kittens:)
What is your favorite movie? Ugh these questions are hard!;) I have a bunch (in no order): Frozen, Tangled, Beauty and the Beast, Brave, Pocahontas, The Little Mermaid, Mulan, Divergent, The Fault in our Stars, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games and Catching Fire, every AG movie (especially Felicity, Molly, and Saige) and Barbie Princess and the PauperXD
What is your least favorite movie? The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. Which bites because The Mortal Instruments is high up there on my favorite book series list, and Kevin Zegers made such a good Alec, but they really messed up the book:(
Favorite doll line? AG! I may be a little biased;)
Spring or Fall? Both! I love them for different reasons. I love spring because where I live, we have excruciatingly long winters, and spring means sun again;) But I love fall because my birthday's in fall, and the first day of school. Plus I love fall weather, when it's breezy and sunny, so you can put a jacket on and bike ride while being attacked by leaves;) So I guess fall!:D

Thank you so much Maria! This was so much fun and your pictures are so cute!

Have a great day!

Felicity Here, With A HUMUNGOUS Announcement!

Hello everyone! Felicity here! I know I usually post on my sisters' blog, The CRAZY Life of a Doll, but I am posting on Mom's right now. Because…

 I have a big announcement!  

We're MOVING!!!

Kind of…

Mom's room is getting redone! And a DOLLHOUSE was built in the process!

We now have a nine room house!  

Mom will share pictures when it's all furnished!
We had to pack up everything in boxes.
All of the furniture, doll sized and people sized, had to come out.
We all spent a long time packing everything up.
And then we said goodbye, and moved into our temporary house.

See you soon!

I Went To A Doll Show :)

Hey guys! Im sorry I haven't posted in ages! I've been SUPER busy, especially with taking ballet twice a week from 3-5 now. I've got some FUN Halloween things planned, but first...

Today I went to a doll show! (hence the not-so-obvious title;)) I didn't get as many pictures as I would've hoped, but you'll never guess who ended up following me home;)
 This lady was selling ADORABLE felt cookies for dolls! I got a pack of 6 for $3.00! They are ADORABLE! Review sometime this week!
 Madame Alexander galore! One of the highlights of the trip was seeing an Ellowyne in person. I didn't get a picture, but I'd been wanting to see one in person for quite a while.
 Old Barbie book
 Molly got her picture taken with a really pretty Pre-Mattel/Early Mattel Felicity;)
 A Disney World Barbie! I was just there and saw balloons like the one she's holding!

And now what I got! Please note that EVERYTHING I got is my birthday present from my parents.
 One lady was selling homemade doll clothes! She was there last year, too. She's the one who sold my Ruthie's red nightgown, Lanie's froggy jammies, and those three adorable gingham dresses with the collars. So this year I got a Felicity-style dress from her!
 It's sooooooo adorable!
 It even came with a mob cap!
 Ruthie reluctantly agreed to show us the pantaloons the set came with.
 Talk about attention to detail! The tiny lace it just perfect!
 The mob cap is so cute!
 I love this style of dress!
 I also got Caroline a sailor dress!
 The front is just AMAZING!
 The back is just as pretty as the front.
 Sparkly stars; how can you go wrong?
 I wish I could sew like this! It's sew cute! *rimshot*




But guess what else I got?








Or should I say who else? :D











 I GOT FELICITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 Yep, I got Felicity!!!! I've been wanting her since I was 9, and I finally have her! My mom couldn't say no to $75 for a Pre-Mattel, maybe REALLY early Mattel Felicity in her super early Mattel (circa 2003-2005) holiday gown! And yes, she's the one Molly got her picture with. Neither of us dreamed she'd be our sister!!!!!
 I just LOVE her green eyes! Oh, it feels like I'm about to wake up from a dream, but it's real!!!!!
 Her hair was in some need of attention, but not that bad!
 She didn't come with shoes, but it's not like I'm devoid of doll shoes or anything;)
 PLEASENT COMPANY stamp! By the looks of it, I think she is early Mattel (circa 1998-2004). Which means Felicity could be older than me!:O
 She is soooooooo photogenic!
 The seller even included her pamphlet and card explaining stomachers.
 If you want to see these pictures bigger, you can just click on them.







 Felicity came in a white shift.
 The neckline is low and gathered.
 Here it is off of Felicity.
 Her tag had been cut, so I can't tell what year she's from:(
 Her hair is so... red.
 The only mark she has is this pen mark on her shoulder. It didn't come off with a Magic Eraser:( That's okay. Felicity's a tomboy so it'll just be a scratch from some daredevil trickXD
 Out of the pony!
 The tag on her dress suggests it's from 2003-2009.
 Her necklace is sooooo awesome!
 It has a screw clasp.
 Not a bad lot for $75!!!!:D
 Her limbs are tighter than Lanie's. Poor Lanie needs a trip to the hospital soon D:

Then Felicity went to the "spa":
 I brushed out her hair...
 ...carefully trimmed off the uneven edges...
 ... and redid the pincurls.
 After Felicity got dressed again, this time with a different stomacher, she joined mini Felicity, now going by Lissie to differentiate the Felicities.
And we took a new groupshot, so expect a new header soon:)

I had soooooooooo much fun at the doll show, and I'm sooooooooooo happy that I got the doll of my 9-year-old dreams:D
