An American Dream Come True

It was late June when the American Girl Magazine first made an appearance in our mailbox & I casually tossed it to my girls telling them they "got mail".  It took exactly one week before I had to take the magazine away from my girls because they were fighting over it/pulling it from each other/ripping pages to get their grimey little hands on it.  They were obsessed.  They had picked their favorites & Aubrie even tore her girl out to be placed in her most treasured spot...the inners of her Bible.
We didn't really do any type of vacation this summer so Bferg & I decided that a trip to the American Girl store & staying in a hotel on our way to STL last weekend would be our family vaca.  (Living large!)

Soooooooo excited!

Lily pretty much wanted it all...we had to reign her in; multiple times.

Aubrie had her sights on McKenna.

She carried this box for the next 35 minutes that we were in the store.

Daddy paying the bill.

Two happy little girls!

Mommy in training.  She has carried her on her hip for the last 4 days straight.

I have a feeling that every future trip to St. Louis will have to include a stop by our new favorite store.  Heaven knows that the only way to afford it is to spread out every purchase over the next 5 years!
Love my little girls who LOVE their little babies.

"A joyful heart makes a cheerful face...."
