Trinka (My Puppy)

Here's Trinka! If you don't know who she is, she's my German Shepherd/Black Lab puppy (well, I guess she isn't a puppy anymore; she turned 2 in September). This is a fairly recent photo of her. I think she looks like a shepherd more than a lab because her ears are up most of the time and she is built less stocky than a labrador. If you are a dog nut (like me) you'll know what I'm talking about. Anyway, here she is! I know that Trinka doesn't have to do anything with dolls, but I thought that it would be nice to post pictures of her. If you want to see more, go under the tag "Not Doll Related". I've done another post about her.

PS- There are two historic landmarks in Dolls, Dolls, and More Dolls today: 1. I have over 50 posts, and 2. I have 25 followers! Thank you so much to everyone on Dolls, Dolls, and More Dolls! : D

Opinion #2 (Kinda Small) and Other Random Updates

Hello everyone! I can't believe that its been 4 days since my last post, and it is only 1 day until December! It's my favorite month.


Pictures are coming, I can assure you!!! I have so much to take pictures of! The pajama (gala) party, the things I got at my sewing teacher's boutique, the dress that I made for both my doll and me to go to AG place, and all the new stuff I'll be making! : )


I have an opinion to ask of you: Have you ever been to AG place (it can be one of those boutique/cafe AG places)? If so, what was your favorite thing?


Mine is the historical doll section. It's so neat!

GOTY 2010

I know I've already posted today, but I have some urgent news!

Thanks to Doll Diaries (http://www.dolldiaries.com/) I have found a bit of information on AG's Girl of the Year for 2010!! Her name is Lanie and she is an African-American who loves the outdoors. Her books are by Jane Kurtz.

Isn't this exciting? I can't wait to see what she looks like. I hope they do that little puzzle thing on the AG website that reveals her!! Thanks again, Doll Diaries, for showing this information!!

PS- In order not to make yet another post, I'll blog the outcome of the poll on this post.

Do you think that AG will retire another doll?

• 14 people said yes
• 1 person said no
• No people said that they didn't follow AG (phew! : D)

Opinions #1

Still can't find the camera battery...

Anyway, I just wanted some opinions. Every once in a while, I will ask you questions about dolls, AG, and Blogger itself. This is the first one, so, here it goes!

1. What is your favorite thing about Winter?
2. Who is your favorite historical AG doll?
3. Do you think that I should get a new format for my website?
4. Are you a dog or cat person?

I know those are really random questions, but it's fun to write them. These are my answers:

1. I like the cold weather.
2. I have a tie between Felicity, Rebecca and Julie
3. Maybe
4. I love dogs

Please answer the questions in the format like I did. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Thanksgiving

Okay... so, we've found the camera battery charger. We've got the camera. We've got the stuff to take pictures of. But we can't find the battery! : (

My dolls, in anticipation of Thanksgiving, each found something to be thankful for.

• Lissie: I'm thankful for all of my friends
• Elizabeth: I'm thankful for all of my pretty dresses
• Julie: I'm thankful for my new scarf, to keep me warm
• Kimi: I'm thankful that I'm just like Hal!!
• Rebecca: I'm thankful that it's almost winter

So... the FPAfG gala has been changed... to a pajama party! All of the girls are really excited to go and they have already picked out their nicest pajamas.

My I Love Lucy wallet has come! Pictures are on the way (they'll be here as soon as I find the battery for the camera). It is sooo cute! I got it on eBay (www.ebay.com). You can find really cool American Girl, I Love Lucy, and tons of other stuff there.

My sewing teacher's doll boutique has passed, and I got a whole bunch of new stuff. I got a quilt, pillows, a skirt, a hat, and a scarf... all for my dolls. I was so happy when I came home with my bag full of stuff!

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!!!!

PS- There are only a couple of days left to vote on my poll. Please chip in!!!! : D

Updates

Hello, Everyone!

Here are some updates:

1. I bought an I Love Lucy wallet, and it should be coming in the mail in a couple of days. I am so excited for it to come!!!!
2. The charger (to charge the battery for my mom's camera) is lost!! I won't be able to post any pictures on the blog until it is found and the battery is charged. : (
3. The Boutique, held by my sewing teacher, is coming up fast! I am saving up my money to buy a whole bunch of American Girl clothes. I am sooo excited!
4. The Flower Petal Academy For Girls (That's a really long name, so I call it FPAfG) Gala is coming up soon! I will be there to take pics (if the battery is recharged by then!!)!
5. My little sister is pretty much ready to read AG books. What book (series) do you think is appropriate for her? I don't want them to be too intense (Like in Meet Kirsten, how her friend dies). I know that I brought this topic up at the beginning of my blog, but now that I have more followers, I thought I would get more feedback. What do you say?
6. I was just wondering: Who's your favorite American Girl Historical doll? I have four favorites: Felicity, Elizabeth, Rebecca, and Julie.

I will try to post some pictures soon!! -Hal
