I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas celebrating with your family and friends!I had such a fun time, and was very blessed to be able to get some American Girl gifts and surprises this year! I'm excited to share them with you!
First, I would like to introduce you to...
...Miss Cécile Rey! I got her from my parents, and I'm so thankful to include her in my doll family. I love her! :)
Her curls are so soft and beautiful!
Cécile also got her Crinoline and Chemise. This is the most fun piece, and it is perfect for Felicity and Elizabeth too! The Crinoline really works to puff out dresses.
Cecile in a few other surprise outfits...
Cécile was happy to meet her new friends too!! They all had a great Christmas together!
What did you get for Christmas? I would love to know! :)













Congrats on Cecile! She's so pretty!
I always choose an AG giftcard/money for Christmas in case I like the GOTY for the next year instead of a doll or a large present if I want a new doll. :)
Oh, and thanks for your Christmas card, Liz! I love the way how your dolls are opening presents together, it's so cute! :-)
Merry {belated} Christmas!

I got MAG 39 for Christmas and named her Virginia after my favorite Christmas movie, 'Yes, Virginia' I am saving for a new doll, but I don't know which one yet! It'll be my sixth doll, and because of that, I'll have to move my dolls somewhere else because I am running out of room in my bedroom!

AH! Lucky you!What I got for Christmas surprised me. My very awesome parents handed me a package, (very heavy) but it was to small to be an AG, so I tore it open and found the BAKING TABLE AND TREATS!!!!!!!!!! ( those cupcakes... ADORABLE)
after opening more boxes of clothes, and doll sized plates for my dolls from Grandma and Grandpa, my awsome aunt and uncle handed me anothere gift. I recognized the shape right away, and tore off the wrapping, only to find MORE wrapping, and this continued for a while, untill I saw an MAG #42 in a purple box, wearing the flower garden dress!I have 4 dolls now, plates, and a baking table with ADORABLE treats! (My AG's name is Marina)

I got Cecile too! I also got Marie-Grace and a bunch of their stuff. I also got Kanani's shaved ice stand, the dog sleigh, Kanani's lounge chair (it didn't come with the pillow or journal), the pet bath set, 2 25th Anniversary mini dolls, and Sugar. My family also gave me $100 in Barnes & Noble gift cards, so I got another mini doll and Pepper. My sister gave me $75 in AG gift cards, so my other AG loving BFF and I are going to American Girl on the 1st to be at McKenna's debut. Oh, and thanks for the adorable Christmas card Liz! It hung by my stocking for good luck. Sorry if there are more than one comments like this from me. My computer wouldn't load so I couldn't see if it got posted. Happy Holidays!

I got the Crinoline (it's really a hoop skirt >:#) and Chemise set too, and i tried it out under Elizabeth's holiday dress and you could see the hoop!!!! The ruffles left a VERY obvious bulge and i was so mad. I'll have to try it out under another of her dresses, but I really wanted it for the holiday one. If you don't have anything poofing out that skirt it really falls flat which isn't period correct at all.

Congrats Liz, Cecile is so beautiful! Sadly, the AG things I'm getting are still 'fling' to my house but I'm getting them on Saturday! I can't wait! I'm only getting a couple Ag things this year. I'm getting the Sporty winter outfit, Ski outfit and accessories, Kanani's party outfit (which I'm blessed to get since it's the only outfit NOT sold out) and the chocolate glasses for dolls. For Christmas I got the Play Mobil summer house and petting zoo, A pair of beautiful white and purple ice skates which I'm so happy I got, I'm also a fan of Littlest pet shop and I got the newest thing, the magic motion tree house (it's so cute) and a bed that my mom made that looks SO similar to the bloom bed! Happy coming up new year everybody!

P.S. Please don't think i'm spoiled, I just wrote a lot because I like to describe things.

I seriously love Cecile and seeing your photos makes me want her more. Tempting as we are going to AG tomorrow. Hmmmm.... will she come home with me or no? I do think her Special Dress may just be the most gorgeous dress AG has ever made and with the crinoline under it, it is divine! Thanks for sharing these photos! I will probably wait until the weekend to post what my girls got for Christmas because we have a birthday to get through tomorrow, too.
