Different AG stores

We've been to 8 different American Girl Stores so far, and I put together this collage of how different some of them look.

Fun stuff at the Dallas Store

We went to the Dallas store yesterday and it was a great day. Dallas is the only Free Standing store that I've seen. The others we've been to all are connected to a mall in some way.

Sonali got to eat at the Bistro:

 

And hang from the hook in the potty stall:

 And a couple of cool photos of the ceiling in the Bistro area at the Dallas store:

Quick trip to the DC store

Got to stop by the DC store on our way to Delaware for a wedding this weekend. It's always a good time at DC:

Girl of the Year - Isabelle!

We went to the American Girl store in Atlanta for a fun weekend! Isabelle came home with us, along with several of her outfits. Her Studio is wonderful and may have to come here as well sometime this year.

We had a great time at lunch (as usual) and Isabelle and her kitten, Tutu, enjoyed a bit of lunch with mini-Isabelle.

Kansas City!

Another different AG store to add to our growing list of ones we've visited -- Kansas City!

Kansas City store

The Campus Snack Cart -- I love this!

Dollies getting all fancied up!

Gwen went with us on this trip, and she got the new Holiday Brocade outfit!

Girls (& boys) move upstairs!

So as one son gets married and the youngest son moves downstairs, that leaves the garret (upstairs area) for the dolls to be relocated!

The Dolls' House cannot stack upright upstairs since the ceiling is angled. But we did the best we could and they have the entire upstairs of our small farm house!

I know that I don't update much, but we've had such a busy summer! Here are the girls and boys at American Girl Rescue ready for this year's school year!

Road trip AG style!

So during our vacation this year, we ended up getting to visit 4 different AG stores during the course of the week long road trip. What great fun!

The new Girl of the Year - Saige!

Saige joined us this month. What a fun collection she has:

We had a fun time at the AG Store. We took Saige to the Bistro for lunch and the wait staff gave her something to 'snack on'. After we brought Sam out to join Saige at the table, the waiter then came over with a small metal dish of water and said "a bit of water for your puppy" and sat that in front of Sam! How sweet!

Caroline!

Another new arrival. Caroline joined our family on Christmas, 2012. She's from 1812 upstate New York.
