One of Rebecca's dreams came true... she got an American Doll!
This is her with my doll Kirsten in an outfit my Memaw got for her in Germany. Memaw and Pepaw gave me Kirsten and it has been so special to see her play with her.
I knew she was ready for a doll of her own when I kept finding this....
She had hung outfits for Kirsten to wear throughout the day.
And often wanted Kirsten to sleep with her.
The day finally came for her to pick her very own doll out compliments of Tula. It was so special for all of us girls to experience it together.
Rebecca ended up picking out the doll Rebecca who is from 1914. She lives in NYC and loves the theater.
Tula with all of her grand-daughters and their new dolls!
After picking out their new dolls we dined at their restaurant. Amanda and I brought along our dolls, Kirsten and Molly. We had a few people come by our table to check out some original American Girl Dolls that have since been discontinued.
This picture cracks me up. I love the way she is looking at that ice cream!
We are blessed blessed to have Tula in our lives. She has given our kids SOOOO many special memories and experiences. My mom is leaving quite the legacy with these kids. I mean... I did name my daughter after her so clearly I thought she was amazing. Pepaw would be so proud of the grandmother she is - full of magic just like he was.
The girls ended up falling asleep in the car! It was a successful event!
