She's An "American Girl" ... Finally!!!

Callie is a VERY lucky girl! She received lots of wonderful presents for her birthday. The "big" gifts are things she has wanted for a LONG time and I'd say they were definitely worth the wait!!!

I'm bummed this picure is blurry but
you get the idea of the moment!

So, when my mom was here last month she & Callie talked, in great detail, about the many things Callie wanted for her birthday, Christmas, Mondays, etc. Throughout their many conversations my mom picked up on her not so subtle hints that she wanted an American Girl doll quite desperately. She decided that she should get Callie one for her birthday. I'm not sure there's any way to express her joy at this gift. So, check out the pictures AND video below!





We went to dinner with Sharon, Gord & family to celebrate Callie's birthday. We had a great time & were fully stuffed when we left.

I love the Build-A-Bear pic, even if it is blurry. Cute!

I know not of American Girl stuffs. We don't do that sort of stuff at our house. I do understand it's a big deal with the female population though. *sigh* I can talk your arm off about Call of Duty 4...

Looks like she had a great birthday! The video was awesome, too!!!!!!

I'm glad that we were able to celebrate Callie's dinner with her!!

She looks like she got lots of loot! Katie will be jealous of the American Girl Doll ~ she used to really like American Girl!
