Howdy ya'lls!

I'm leaving for Florida tomorrow for my spring break, so I won't be posting again until mid-April. I'll be sure to post all about my trip when I get back! Emily is also coming with me so she'll post on her blog too. :) Enjoy your spring!


Love, Lena

A Visitor

Happy Friday!

Remember back in June when I made a blog post on the last day of school about my friends Racheal and Robert?  Well, Robert came back to visit! Yep, that's right!

It was wonderful to see him again, if it was only for two days. We had a great time reminiscing about old times with our mutual friends. It really stank though because I was supposed to see him yesterday too, so I didn't say goodbye on Wednesday. Well, he went and caught himself a cold, so we weren't able to get together. I'm upset that I didn't get to say goodbye to him, but I'll see him again sometime. Probably next year.

Also, I can't believe I have 29 followers! Just last week I had about 20, and now the count has skyrocketed! Thanks so much to all of you who have followed!

Love, Lena

Doll Rooms and Blogoversary

Hey guys!

So first, I don't believe I've shown (on my blog) how my dolls are set up! The very first doll room that I had set up when I moved to Europe (about 3 years ago) was this:

Sara had the top bunk, Emily had the bottom bunk, Josefina and Felicity shared the bed, and there was a mat under the bed that I would pull out for Kirsten. Then toward the end of last year, I got a bed from Ikea, so I changed my room a bit:

I know it's not the best picture ever, but it's the only one I could find. Sara and Emily still had their bunk bed, but now Kirsten and Felicity shared the Ikea bed. Josefina finally had her bed back all to herself! Earlier this fall I bought another Ikea bed, and I made bunk beds. Sara and Emily slept on the top, Kirsten and Felicty on the bottom, and Josefina in her bed. Unfortunately, I can't find a picture of that, sorry. :(

Now, since I just have a room for Emily, my other 4 dolls have been sleeping on the floor. I hated to see them like that, so I cleared off one of my decorative shelves to make room for my AGs.


(Sorry the pictures are such bad quality, I had to use my old camera.) Now I have my dolls on the top shelf.

The next shelf is for my glass ornaments/decorations.

Then underneath the two I have Emily's room! What do you think of my new set up? Which is your favorite?

Now, as for my Blogoversary, I think you might have seen that it's in only 51 days! Yay! Then I will have been blogging for 1 year.  I have a small giveaway planned for my followers, so if you read my blog but aren't following, I'd recommend that you do!

Love, Lena
