It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas!

Hey guys! It's only 15 days until Christmas!

I thought I'd show everyone who didn't get to see it last year my doll play that I did last year! I did 'A Christmas Carol'. I think I'm probably going to do another play this year, but it probably won't be quite as long and I may not have time to finish it before Christmas. (Stupid homework and tests!)

Anyway, are your dolls getting ready for Christmas/Chunnakuh? What are they doing?

I found some really cool crafts for the Holiday season:

There are a bunch at Our Dolls. The links weren't working right, but all you have to do to find the crafts is click on  Doll Holidays and Activities , then click on  Current Holiday: Christmas. All of the craft look super fun and easy, but my favorites are the wreaths and the paper chains. :) There are also a bunch of cute photostories about Christmas time.

Doll Menorah! (Just for you, Priya!) This looks really cute and I would definately make one for my dolls if I celebrated Chunnakuh. This craft is from Karen at Doll Diaries.

Thanks for looking!

Christmas is Coming!

Hey! I just set up my doll displays for Christmas and thought I'd share! :) I'll probably recreate one of the scenes in a better place to take a picture for the Our Dolls Christmas photo contest. Here are the scenes:

Molly and Emily hurrying to a holiday party! I LOVE this one so much! Emlily's so coordinated her gift for the hostess matches her dress! : D

I love her hairstyle here soooo much!

I love Molly's coat and earmuffs!

Kit and Kailey are wrapping Christmas presents! (See that wreath there? I made that completely out of beads, safety pins and ribbon last year. It took me FOREVER to make so just had to incorporate it some how!)

Blurry and yet still cute :)

It's so easy to forget how gorgeous Kailey is! (This might be her new profile picture!)

And Kit wanted a close up because everyone else was getting one! (I don't know why her eyes look so weird . . . they don't look like that in real life!) 
And here's my eleven year old bitty, Robby, who I dressed in snow man PJ's.

And the biggest display! (This one took over an hour!)

Cuties!

Their tree! It's tiny, but I set it on a platform to make it look a little bigger. And my mom was sweet enough to pick up some mini ornaments for me earlier this week :)

At the top of the tree we have the cyclops angel (one of her eyes fell off). My mom calls it the winking angel.

Looks like Santa came!!!! : D

And a cute note :)

Thanks for looking, and please comment and say which display is your favorite!

What are YOUR dolls doing for Christmas?

Halloween!

A little late, I know, but I wanted to show you what my dolls dressed up as for Halloween!

Kirsten and Chrissa went as opposites- a cute devil and a modest angel!

Kailey was one of her heroes, Annie Oakly. She was a big trick shooter at the turn of the last century. Google her, she's pretty cool :)

And Sandy went as her horse, hehehe

Kit also went as her hero, who, of couse, is Amelia Earhart.

Molly went as Laura Ingals Wilder.

And Emily went as a French Sailor!

I am quite proud of the French Braids I gave her :)

Group shot!

And another for good measure.

Thanks for looking!


PS: Like the new look?

New Blog Look!

Happy Good Friday!

'For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son so that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but shall have eternal life.' ~ John 3:16

One of the most commonly known verses of the Bible, and yet a very powerful one. I hope everyone had a wonderful day today. I did, I performed in a play at my church's Tenebrae service.

Because it's almost Easter, I got to thinking about the things I'm thankful for (because most of all, I'm thankful that Jesus died and rose to save me). Here are some of the things I'm thankful for:

1. Dolls
2. Comments
3. My 12 WONDERFUL followers!
4. My great friends I've made through this blog
5. Pictures that turn out fantastic
6. Fun contests
7. Random posts
8. The online AG community

What are YOU thankful for?

Thanks for reading and have a happy and blessed Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter!

~Katie, Molly, Emily, Kit, Kailey, Chrissa and Kirsten~

PS: Today was Molly's birthday! Since it is also Good Friday, we decided to wait untill Sunday to celebrate it! Check back then for pics of the great party we're planning!

St. Patrick's Day Photoshoot!

Hello! It's Kirsten. Yesterday we had a St. Patrick's Day photoshoot, as you can tell from the title. I know it's a little early for St. Patrick's day, but Katie's Irish and you know how they can get. :) Anyway, we decided we should all dress in green, which was a bit of a challenge, but we pulled it off. I'm going to narrate what's going on, so let's get started! (Some of the pictures turned out fuzzy- sorry)

"Where are Kit, Kailey and Emily?" Chrissa asks, well demands. "We agreed to meet by the green chair at Four o'clock, well it's four o three."

Then we see our friends. "Hi!" Emily calls. "What are you wearing?!?!?!" Chrissa shrieks.

"Kailey! You're wearing shorts and tights?" "Well, yeah. This was the only green thing I had, and I didn't want my legs to get cold."

"Emily, why are you wearing Kirsten's woolen socks?!" "Well the one has green on it, and I couldn't find the other. I hope you don't mind that I borrowed them, Kirsten." "Oh, it's fine," I assure her.

"Really, Kit! Socks with sandals?! That's the biggest fashion faux pas ever!" Kit shrugged. "I didn't was my feet to get cold."

Chrissa pretended to faint. I tried to catch her but accidentally missed. Oops.

Then we did this really cool thing that I cannot begin to describe. Chrissa refused to be next to one of the girls wearing 'outfits so unfashionable we should call the fashion police'. I think she's been looking at Cristal at Our Dolls a little too much. Hehehe . . . .

I love this picture so much!

"Heheheh, I'm quite the gymnist," Kailey says.

"See?"

"I think I'll be Pipi Longstocking for Halloween next year," Molly giggles.

"Oh wait, you're taking the picture now?" (Sorry about the clothes pin)

"Just showing off the extent of my green outfit," Emily says proudly.

"WAIT!!! I'M STILL FIXING MY HAIR!!!!!"  

I kinda fell asleep. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

KVL+ CMM= BFF's

Pyramid time! Do you like Katie's bag in the background?

"I'm so glad I'm not on the bottom." "Me, too, Chrissa."

"Ugh, why did I agree to be on the top?!" (Molly's not too fond of heights.)

Thanks for looking!
~Kirsten Victoria Larson~

Hey guys! It's Katie here for just a quick second. I have awesome news: I finished taking pictures for my play! That means that Emma from My American Girl will get to see it as soon as I finish writing it (probably Saturday) and the rest of my awesome readers will get to see it two weeks after that.

Thanks!
