Reading an American Girl Classic

 The American Girl 35th anniversary is making me, and many others, feel nostalgic.

It inspired me to take pictures of my dolls reading the American Girl books together with the mini dolls.

As usual, Molly is not my jam, so she gets left out.

The other original five AG dolls are all represented here.

It's just such a classic moment, I think, a girl reading with a doll next to a tree.

And I am proud of the four glass eyed mini dolls that I own. It's a very intentional small collection, and one that I love. I think they are very cute.

Kit and mini Kirsten

I posted this picture in yesterday's blog, but it really is special to me.

I have a friend who lives a long, long drive away from me. We have been friends since we were in Girl Scouts, but we haven't lived near to each other for years.

She has had this Kit for a long long, but due to space constraints, Kit had to live in a box and I only "met" Kit once.

I was so happy at this visit that Kit was sitting out where I could see her. It was the first time that two of our dolls got to meet each other. I kind of wished that I had brought one of my full-sized dolls, but Kit sometimes dresses up and pretends to be Kirsten, so it was a serendipitous choice in that regard! 

Mini Kirsten and the Lightning Tour of the Mid-West!

 Mini Kirsten just did a three day tour of the Midwest. She got to visit three states!

First she visited St. Louis, Missouri, where Girl of the Year Lea Clark is from. She went to an area of St. Louis called the Hill, where there are lots of Italian restaurants.
