Happy Friday everyone! today's Flashback Friday features the retired American Girl Place Costume Trunk. This was a store exclusive several years ago when the theater in American Girl Place was still open. The set includes a doll size "Circle of Friends" poster, theater stickers to decorate the purple, metal trunk, six doll size tickets to the show, a magenta ruffled boa, a pair of black slip on shoes with multi color detailing on the sides, a magenta sequined shawl, elbow length silver gloves, a silver beaded necklace, a "CD" from "Circle of Friends" and a "CD" from "The American Girls Revue." The half circle case has a black handle and a metal snap closure to keep everything stored nice and securely. It seems to me that some of these items have reappeared in Rebecca's costume trunk. I ever got to see the shows at American Girl Place but I have heard positive things about it from those who did, it seems a shame that the theaters aren't open any more.
Did you ever see a show at the American Girl Place theater?

Flashback Friday: Cabbage Patch Toddler Kid
I know I'm a few days late, but it has been crazy here the last few days. The Flashback
Friday for this week (actually last week) is my adorable Cabbage Patch Toddler Kid. His birth certificate says his name is Garcia and he was found at an estate sale still in his box. His box is copyrighted 1988 and he is the "Kid in the Middle." Cabbage Patch kids were created by Xavier Roberts in the late 70's. The story of the Cabbage Patch started appearing in 1983 and most dolls have a replica of Xavier Roberts signature on their bottom. All the dolls are "born" at Babyland General Hospital and each doll comes with a birth certificate with their first and middle name and adoption papers. The dolls have a soft hugable body and hard plastic head, most of the older ones have yarn hair, while the newer ones have nylon hair. Garcia has red looped yarn hair and green eyes and a dimple in his left cheek. His red jumper has green cars, the words "speed limit 55", "vroom" and "honk" on it. He is wearing red and white hard plastic tennis shoes and white socks. He is in great shape for his age and is a real cutie.

Awaiting Warmer Weather
MaKayla has been at the window most of the day watching the thermometer.We were finally suppose to get Spring weather today, and she has been waiting for it to warm up so she can put her heavy winter clothes away and bring out her lighter outfits. The temperature finally got warm enough for the sweaters to be out away until Autumn, so keep an eye out to see what Makayla has pulled out of the closet.
