American Girl Store!!

Hey everyone! :)

I have some really cool news!!!! My dad said a few nights ago that he was going to Dallas on a work trip, (not at all far from where I live,) :), and so I got all excited because there's an American Girl Store there! :D So, just this night he said that he would probably be going on October 10th, 11th, or 12th. And I went to their website and looked at the "Stores" category and saw a picture of the Dallas store! It looked very cool! :)

So then I looked at their hotels and realized that when you go, you can ask about a FREE American Girl Doll bed!! And there are also cool events! I am also saving for some items. . . .I don't know. I wanted to ask for Felicity for Christmas, but I really wanted Kit too. *sighs* Oh well, I guess I might just get her for my birthday . . . probably not, though, because I really wanted a horse (but it wouldn't be *mine,* it would be the whole family's pet. Now that we finally have a place for one, we really would love to own one!) :)

So, the news is unofficial, though it looks like we'll be going. So I will post when I have official news. :)

Autumn is here. . .

Hello everyone! :)

Fall is here! I love fall, don't you? Leaves change colors, everything looks so beautiful. . .it'll be especially fun this year because we have lots of trees where we live, maybe when we go outside to play leaves will crunch under out feet! :)

My favorite thing about fall is that the leaves change colors and it is a change of scenery from dry, crumbly old summer (and not to mention a change of air, too --- summer's so hot!) --- but I love everything about fall. :)

What are your favorite things about autumn? Are you excited that it is now here? :)

Sad AG News (please read)

Hi everyone, I have some really sad news.

Less than an hour ago, my Dad came home from work and gave me a letter from AG. I was so excited because I had asked them to consider a rewigging service in the Doll Hospital Plan (which they do not have, as I saw,) because Abby's (my MAG's (My American Girl's) hair was really gross. I was going to post about it but I couldn't really get to it because I've been busy with my homeschooling, we've been at it for like weeks.) I used a dog grooming brush with plastic balls on the tops of the bristles instead of wire or metal ones, and it just made her hair look thin and. . .UGLY, really. I love her, but. . .

Anyway, I tore open the letter and was super happy and sat on my mom's bed to read it to her.
There's no good news, I'm sorry to say. Only bad.

Here is what the letter said:

Dear Hannah,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write. We are happy to hear you love playing with your American Girl dolls. Knowing that they bring you so much happiness makes all our hard work and caring worthwhile! (This is not part of the letter, but while reading this, I was almost sure that they were going to say, "Although we don't have plans for a rewigging service, we will consider this an option." You know, something like that. They did this to me once when I sent an email.)

While we appreciate confidence in us to replace your doll's wig, we currently have no plans to offer this a service in our Doll Hospital. We're sorry if this causes any disappointment, but want you to know that if you decide to replace her head, we will be happy to help. Please know that Doll Hospital Admission Forms can be printed from our website at americangirl.com.

We thank you for writing, Hannah, and hope you can have many more fun times with your doll!


Yes, I know that it was probably a fat chance that they would have done it, (given a rewigging service,) but I still thought that they'd consider it.

I don't think I'm going to get her a new head. That is pretty pricey, ($39, to be exact,) and right now I'm saving for Kit, so I don't think I'm going to make any changes to her any time soon.

Oh well. I am happy that they wrote back, but I am a little bit sad too, at the fact that Abby probably will never have another new wig.

What do you think of this? Have you ever written to AG? I would love to know! :)
