November 23rd, 1941 Dear Molly, Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you had a wonderful time with family and friends this holiday. Things sure were busy at the Mitchell house this year- between helping Mom prepare for the big feast and cleaning up afterwards, I’ve hardly had time to write! But now that the festivities are over, I can’t wait to tell you everything that happened… including our special performance! To show our gratitude and thankfulness this year, my good friends, Lily a

Aloha, everyone! 🌺 Today, I am excited to share with you a vlog of our trip to the American Girl Store in Atlanta for Nanea Mitchell's release. I was so excited upon hearing that we would be going to her debut- my family doesn't visit the AG Store very often (mostly once or twice each year due to the traveling distance), so this was a wonderful opportunity to view Nanea's collection and the new American Girl items. 😄 Of course, my sisters and I wanted to join in on the fun

Hello, everyone! It's definitely been a while since I last posted, hasn't it? I'd like to apologize for being away from the blog world this past two weeks. As usual, life has been busy! Our old house sold last week, and we've extremely busy trying to move out a few things (well, actually a lot of things) that were stored over there. But now that we're finally done, I am ready to get back to posting, and hear what's new with all of you! ☺️ Since American Girl is releasing quit
