Let's go camping!

Since our plans completely changed for the weekend, that's a whole other story, we decided to head out to a neighborhood sale. We didn't find very much, but we did find this.....
Wow....that brought back memories for me. I had the same barbie camper when I was a little girl. My mom actually kept it for me and gave it back to me sometime after we got married. Then one day my nephew who was 2 at the time, was over and thought it was a pretty cool car to play with, I suppose I probably shouldn't have let him sit on it like a riding car.
I have looked on eBay for one of these barbie campers and they are pretty expensive, so I was excited to see it at a garage sale, and Marissa would not leave until she got to buy it. After we got home we cleaned it up and the girls have been playing with it ever since!

I SO needed to live next door to you when I was growing up. I never had the cool barbie stuff. Just the barbies with short hair. Woe is me. :)

I had one of those two. It brought back so many memories of some good times. How amazing you found one for your girls. I'm wondering what happened to your weekend plans?

So funny, I saw one of these last year at a garage sale and almost got it even thought lilly wasn't even 1 yet. It even came with a naked Ken doll inside. I guess I shouldn't have passed it up!

I didn't know Austin broke your camper...maybe it was pay back for never sharing it with his mother when you were younger. haha

Welcome to our home at Christmas. When I heard that Boomama was going to be having a Christmas Tour of Homes , I thought that sounded like so much fun because so many of our family and friends aren't able to make it out to visit us during the Christmas season. So here are a few pictures of our home decorated for Christmas. As you walk in our front door we have this little tree sitting in our entry way As you can see I really like snowman! This is leading into the family room... This tree is in our family room and it is decorated with all of our family ornaments. Each year we buy the girls an ornament that represents something from the year for that child. It is a tradition that I have continued from my childhood. My favorite ornaments are the ones that are homemade by the girls! This is our big tree that is more formally decorated and is in our living room. This is our third year with an artificial tree which is definitely less messy but we have had lots of fun with the pre-lite l

1 Year Later
