Ok, I have caved...new dolls coming home...

Ok, I have caved. I have longed for an American Girl doll since I bought mystepdaughter Amanda, hers when she was just seven or eight, about 7 years ago now. She still has that doll. I had always meant to buy her the historicals, but never got around to it. Guess it is now time for me to have fun!

I purchased a Felicity in the Felicity/Elizabeth Frenzy when it was announced Felicity was going to be retired. Well, I was able to bid and win a Pleasant company Felicity in the prettier meet dress, with her accessories! I am still waiting for her to arrive.

Rebecca is now on her way via QVC. Check out QVC.com for their American Girl packages going up tomorrow, at the 4pm EST show for 2 hours! I went and bought Rebecca who not only comes with her accessories and book, but her school outfit and her lunch set! for 139.97!! This was a deal I couldn't miss, plus the dolls look great with the largest Bespaq furniture in the store. Here  is a pic of a customers' Rebecca when she visited the store yesterday!

So my Rebecca and Felicity will be arriving soon. I hope to share some more photos wth the dolls and the Bespaq, they are so lovely with the furniture.

Dixie chick goes for an adventure...

Yeah, it's me again...Dixie Chick brownie here. That's me sitting on the dash of Mr. Chris' van on Monday...and me n' Gracie went for an adventure...at least I call it that. Gracie got her own seat in the back. Miss Lisa said I should sit on the dash so I could see the great view...it was great...

Boy was that sun bright !

Gracie didn't think so..but then, she sat in the back seat of the van...even took that new sock monkey Miss Lisa got her. I like sock monkeys, but he's too big for me to drag around.

As I said, we were going on adventure....to a place called Warsaw, that is near where Miss Lisa & Mr. Chris live. It's far far away in the country.

I eventually ended up riding in the console where the cokes ride, by the cell phones, keys and other human paraphanalia. They have alot of junk they carry!

Yep- the sign REALLY says that. Mr. Chris needed a new truck for his business, LeoPaul & Associates. Mr. Chris works on huge, humongous, ginormous, well, you get the picture ---BIG Boilers (those are the things that give factories their heat ). Well, 'Down Home Truck & Equipment' is where the place was in Warsaw. Mr. Chris had found his truck!

See that big red one, second from the right? Well, that is Mr. Chris' new truck. Miss Lisa is going to take pics of the rest of it. It is big- and has all kinds of marvelous buckets for the tools Mr. Chris carries about with him to work. Big ole dirty greasy tools...oooh. I hate getting dirty.

Gracie just stayed in the back of the van. Party pooper.

Then we went on to another place buying more stuff for Miss Lisa's shop-- some sort of warehouse that she was real excited about.

Liquidation warehouse- Miss Lisa wanted those big gold angel looking things with wings that the red drape was hanging on..but they were so big! We stayed in there forever and forever....at least I stayed in Miss Lisa's purse. She doesn't like to leave me in the car. Again, Gracie stayed in the car...until we went to Walmart....then Gracie got some of hte new LIV girls clothing- bummer! she got a new outfit!

So here is Gracie's new outfit. Pajamas- again! Gracie said she didn't like the fuzzy slippers, they made her feet itch. She doesn't know how much she is going to like this new mouse bjd that is on its way from Denver Doll Emporium, but I am looking forward to meeting her. She is a Dollfactory Bobo 2nd edition. Hopefully she will work in the Mickey Mouse diner that Miss Lisa is collecting all of the Disney Rement for....but she may be Maizie & my new teacher....or the new Doormouse in the Alice in Wonderland diorama Miss Lisa is also collecting for. When she brought Gracie's outfit, there was ANOTHER doll box in the bag...and it looked like one of those big headed Moxie girls dressed as Alice!

Well, that is our adventure...more to come when Miss Lisa gets more time on her hands to take pictures of us!

Gracie again....

I haven't had much time to spendwith Gracie, and she has felt neglected lately. This weekend I finally had a morning that I could sit about with the dolls, my camer, my computer & my cup of java and watch the sun come up over the field. Gracie hadn't been feeling well, so she was snuggled up in her American girl brass bed and decided to sleep in...I hope to be posting some more pictures later...

Wendy made me do it....

LOL! I say that my online friend, Wendy Wylde, made me do it, and she certainly did. Here is the link to her newest flicker photos http://www.flickr.com/photos/griffonfeathers/4688353789/ of the new DollFactory Anthro bjd's that are in stock! This is the third edition of the Bobo mouse, however, I purchased the 2nd edition one they had in stock- she is just adorable!

If you haven't read Wendy's blog- it's one of my favorite blogs of all time.

I See...Mickey & Minnie Mouse....

This is the adorable Rement Mickey & Minnie cafe table set I just ordered. PERFECT for the tinies. They also have a stitch and Lilo one, that is cute, but with all the new Disney Rement cafe and bakery items available I'm in love. I see a Mickey & Minnie cafe project for the tinies in the making....and darn it on Denver Doll Emporium, the new Dollfactory Bobo mouse is perfect for these...though I wouldlove a cheese mouse better.

More on my Rement Obsession later....lol!

Schoolhouse project for the tinies...

So I have been working on collecting items for a schoolhouse for my tinies. I want a Realpuki Soso very bad, and also the new cute dollfactory pig and mouse. My Brownies are quite mischevious, and after purchasing some Rement with the schooldesk, lunchbox, I thought what a cute room this would make= hey why not a school for wayward Brownies??

One problem is that the room is fairly small, it is perfect if only it were a little wider. Showing the desks I have now, (I was thinking of purchasing two more) it will be cramped with a teacher and a teacher's desk and chair in there as well. So the one room cabin/might turn into a small coffee shop for the tinies. Back to the drawing board for a roombox that is big enough !

New eyes for Maizie!

Maizie's eyes arrived witht he eye putty from Denver Doll Emporium yesterday! They are 8mm Glib acrylic eyes, in the color Marigold! More pics later!
