My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday, and I got so much stuff! I took pictures of the doll-related things and put them on the blog:

I got Chrissa's Craft Studio. It is so cute! It is much more awesome in person than on the website... believe me! There is a sewing machine (and I love to sew), yarn, knitting needles, pencils, scissors, thread, an organizer, a bowl (that her dad apparently made), a notebook for designing, a pincushion, and a measuring tape.

Here's the sewing machine up close. When you turn it on, the presser foot moves up and down. It is so fun to play with, and I think that all of my dolls are enjoying it already.

I got two Barbie dolls! The one on the left is "Sales Resistance" and Lucy's in her traditional blue and white polka-dotted dress. The one on the right is the one I got for Hanukkah, but I figured I'd put it in anyway, because it is so cute! This one is from "Lucy Gets a Paris Gown". That is my favorite episode!

Talking about Hanukkah, I'll make a post once Hanukkah is over and show all of my doll-related gifts. Also, I wanted to tell everyone about a book I got for my birthday. It's called Do Hard Things and it's a nonfiction book about how teenagers are actually using up the best years of their lives being lazy. I highly recommend this book. It's really good!

Happy holidays to everyone! -Hal
