Ruthie, Nellie, and Kirsten's Halloween Picture


Hi guys! Okay, I am so sorry, but this is Katie Kenelly again. :P I am so very sorry I have been taking this blog over lately!

I finally got around to taking a picture of Ruthie, Nellie, and Kirsten dressed up for Halloween! I only had costumes for 3 of my dolls, and the costumes coordinated with them, so yeah. Hope y'all like it! Here's what the girls are dressed up as, starting with Ruthie and going right:

Ruthie as a Pink Princess
Nellie as an Irish Step Dancer
Kirsten as Saint Lucia

Also, I realized last Friday, when I was looking on AG's website, that I had saved up enough money for something/some things! But, I want to keep it a surprise! I'm guessing it will be coming either tomorrow or Thursday.

I'm not going to update my Ticker because I'm kind of confused about how much $ I have saved up, but I'll update it as soon as I've got it all figured out, by the way. :D

Love,

Katie Kenelly

P.S. The dolls say hi and also that they're sorry that I am hogging this blog! Their such ratfinks!

The SURPRISE (!!!!!!!!!) and a TON of other great updates!

Hey everyone! It's Katie! So, today I am finally going tot tell you what the surprise is!

Here were the hints:

1) It's from AG, but it's not an AG doll
2)England.

"What could this possibly be?" you ask. It's.....

*drumroll please*


GIRLS OF MANY LANDS DOLL ISABELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!
Yep, I found her on eBay for a very low price, so my mom let me get her as long as I would work for it (such as extra chores). Here are some pics:
Isn't she gorgeous? I swear I'm not trying to brag! I just wanted to clear that up now.

She came without her book, but with her doll stand and her shoes and socks! She's very pretty! I will make a Picasa album of the dolls meeting her.


Another update-- I entered my first giveaway on American Girl's Fan in England, where Sierra was giving away Candlelight for Rebecca and I won! Yay! Thanks Sierra! So I will send her my address tonight! :D

I also finally met a girl in one of my classes today that loves AG as much as I do! We have a lot in common! I also found 2 books at my school library that I want to read (okay, as some of you probably know, I love reading and my school library has NOTHING good for me to read, but I found 2 good ones)! Okay, that's not doll related but oh well.

Oh, 1 more update-- I will take a picture of Ruthie, Kirsten, and Nellie all dressed up for Halloween! I only have enough costumes for 3 of my dolls, so that's why I'm only taking pictures of them. :D

Love,

Katie

P.S. Sorry I've been taking over this blog lately!

Oh my gosh! Today is great (except for having an ear infection :P)! Why?

1) 20 followers! Yay! Thank you guys so much! You all are awesome! Thanks so much!

2) The SURPRISE CAME!!!! Yup, the package just arrived! I'm sick now, though, so I won't be able to take any pictures of it yet, but here's a hint: England.

The dolls have no idea yet, they didn't even know I was looking at this item on eBay! :D

If you know what it is, please don't comment saying what it is! Thanks!

Sorry for the short post, my ear is starting to hurt again. :P

Love,

Nellie

Hi everyone, it's Nellie. On my first day of school post, I said that something cam back to haunt me, and that I couldn't tell y'all right then. Well, my 'sisters' aren't here right now, so here's the story, which takes place on the first day of school:

I was walking with Samantha down the hallway. Her fourth period class is different then mine, but in the same hallway, so yeah. We waved good-bye and I walked into my classroom. I walked up to my teacher and asked her where I sit. She pointed to seat 5. I turned around and scanned the classroom, taking in all the colors and such. My teacher had decorated the room with bright summer colors, like turquoise, lime green, hot pink, lemon yellow, etc. There were also guinea pigs in the back of the room where 5 girls were playing with him. I smiled and began to look at the girls in their seats. I said hi to some of the girls I knew, and then began to make my way to seat 5. Just as I placed my books on my desk, I saw a flash of blond hair whip around in the corner of my eye. I turned and you'll never guess who I saw:

ANNABELLA.

That's right! The girl who I became best friends with when I first arrived at Kimdale! I was shocked. She got suspended for hacking into the headmistress's computer, but we never knew when, or if, she would come back. But there she was! How was I so sure? Coco Chanel (remember her, C.C. for short?) came up to her and said, "Annabella, I'm so glad you're back!"


Annabella smiled. She was wearing the Jumper and Boots set from AG, and she had her hair pulled back in a ponytail with a big pink bow. She also had dangly
earrings and doll braces. I tried not to stare, but suddenly she turned and our eyes locked. Her cold, piercing blue eyes turned to slits when she saw me. I felt frozen.

Slowly, her lips curved into a smile. Her eyes slowly un-slitted (is that even a word???? Lol!) and she turned back to whisper something to C.C. I realized I hadn't been breathing. I quickly gathered myself together and tried my best to forget about her.

Oh no! I'm so worried! She hasn't said anything to me yet, and it's already been 7 weeks, but what if she comes to my dorm and tries to talk to me??????


love,


Nellie

I got tagged!

*post by Katie Kenelly*

I got tagged by Rose!!! Thanks Rose! Okay, so I have to tell a funny story! Here it is:

Today (yes, how ironic!) I was playing volleyball, which is my favorite sport, and the team we were playing against was winning. Well, someone on the other team bumped the ball so hard it went flying to the ceiling and came straight down on our side. I was standing under where the ball was supposed to land, so, naturally, I got ready to bump it. When it was time for me to bump it, I realized I had to set it because I was too close to the net and if I bumped the ball it would go flying backwards. I realized this when I jumped into the air to bump it. So, I bent my arms and got ready to set it while I was in midair, and set it with great force. But I closed my eyes. I can close my eyes, but in this case I couldn't for too long. But I did close my eyes for too long. So, I set the ball and since I couldn't see I hit it out-of-bounds and it somehow threw me off balance. my legs went straight up in front of me, my back straight up, and my middle straight down, making my body look like a 40 degree angle! I fell smack down on the court! It didn't hurt, just my backside, but I laughed so hard! My friends and I were laughing our heads off!

So, that's my funny story! I tag anyone who wants to be tagged! Bye!

Love,

Katie Kenelly
