This year we something different for the girls for Christmas. In the past, we have not budgeted much for them for gifts (maybe $25-$30), just because they simply don't need anything.
They are still playing with Christmas gifts from 4 & 5 years ago.
So we changed things up a bit this year. We budgeted quite a bit more, but they only got one thing from us. We went to the American Girl store. Can you say fun?!? I don't know who was more excited...me or them! We spent a couple of hours looking around and then had lunch at the bistro. Fun was had by all...even Billie!
But first, here's a video from Christmas morning when they found out where we were taking them.
Arriving
Choosing dolls (If you notice, there's not a photo of LB with her doll. That's because the ONLY doll that she wanted was also the ONLY doll that was out of stock. Figures. So we ordered it online last night. She'll be at our house in about a week. I hated to see her not leave with her doll. But she couldn't be talked into choosing another!)
Out of the box (JK with Josefina, and AA with Molly)
At lunch at the bistro (This was a "loaner" doll for LB. But as it turned out, is the exact doll that she wanted! She was excited to be able to at least eat with "her" doll!)
Again, we had a blast and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Merry Christmas girls!
