A Trip to the Doll Shop


I love to visit Gardner Village in West Jordan, Utah, and my grand daughter Kennedy loves to accompany me. I love being with her, so it's a win/win situation :). Kennedy is 6 years old and she loves dolls, their clothes and accessories. She has a particular love for paper dolls!
There is a gorgeous store at Gardner Village called the Georgell Doll Shop.
Come inside with us for a visit......



These clothes are all for 18" dolls, like American Girl dolls.


Hats, wedding dresses, princess dresses, and so much more!


There is doll candy everywhere you look! Kennedy is in doll heaven...



A rack of "groovy girls", Kennedy has a few of those!
Whenever we come to this shop, she chooses one who looks like her mom, one who looks like her dad (yes, they are some boy groovy dolls), one who looks like her big brother Bridger, one who looks like her little sister Charlotte, and one who looks like herself. She even chooses one who looks like me :)
It's really cute to see the different ones she chooses!


Look at the pretty chandeliers, they have dragon flies dangling from them.


Ooh la la!!!



I love the hardwood floor.


One last look before we leave the store....


Kennedy thinks it's a treat just to go inside this doll shop, she never even asks me to buy her anything :)


Kennedy is a little doll herself!!!
She always likes to dress fancy.
When I come to visit, she loves to choose my clothes for the day.
First she lays out the undergarments, in the shape of a body on the floor.
Then she lays the clothes on top, in order.
On top of that, she puts the jewelry she wants me to wear.
Kennedy makes me feel really special, and I love her to the moon and back!

A Tooth Fairy Envelope for Kennedy

Kennedy is my sweet little grand daughter.  
She turned 5 in July.


She learned how to ride her bicycle without the training wheels!


She began Kindergarten, and goes to school with her big brother Bridger who is in second grade. 
Little Charlotte is left home alone with only her mother to play with!  LOL


Kennedy and I like to bake cookies together.


.... and have tea parties.


Kennedy likes to use my camera to take pictures of me :)


Sometimes Kennedy is a camera hog...


but I don't care because I LOVE her!!!
Whenever I want to take her picture, she poses....
Her grandfather thinks she will be a model someday.


Kennedy told me she had a loose tooth.  She is growing up so fast.
I wanted to help make this moment special for her so I had an idea....
I asked her to draw a picture of the tooth fairy.
Her tooth fairy is as pretty as she is!  
Notice how she writes part of her "Y", onto the top of the "D" to make it look like an apple.
Pretty original!!!


I drew her drawing onto fabric and embroidered the image.


Kennedy and I went to the quilt shop together and she picked out some pretty pink fabric.


I made a fabric envelope to hold Kennedy's tooth.
She can slip the envelope under her pillow.
In the morning her tooth will be gone, and the tooth fairy will have left a treat in its place.
Kennedy said that the envelope will hold two teeth, one in the envelope and one in the pocket on the back.


Now Kennedy says she has TWO loose teeth :)


I sure do ♥ that 5 year old grand daughter of mine!!!
