Actually, next Summer we're having another big trip! We're going to the East Coast, so of course: NEW YORK! Maybe we can visit that AGP!

Hi Girls, thanks for your comments!
Toy Amusement-I don't have a Facebook either, but used my dad's account to enter. I think you can only enter through Facebook, I'm sorry! But, I've got a giveaway of my own coming up soon that you can enter. ;)
Jaclynn-Emily told me that the winner will be able to choose the My American Girl doll of their choice! Yay!
Hope you have a great day!
Your Friend,
Liz

Jaclynn: Just about. This summer we went to Mt Rushmore and Arches and Zion and Yellowstone and ALOT of other places! We were gone for 3 weeks! Then, in September we went camping to Idyllwild. My dad says we MIGHT go hiking on Sunday after church, and in November we're going to camp again!

Liz:
Thank you sooo much!!! How exciting! And just yesterday I was trying to find one that looked the most like me! What a coincidence! LOL!
Amelia Rose: WOW!!! LOL! That's so cool! You guys must be very outdoors-y!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 24, 2012 at 06:55 PM
Arghh!!!! Why is everything through facebook!!?!!
Posted by: anna | October 24, 2012 at 07:14 PM
Hi Liz! Do you know if round trip airfare is included? And do you know which doll you get?
Posted by: Kelley | October 24, 2012 at 07:29 PM
Do any of you have the Doll Play book or the Doll Crafts Kit??? I would love to hear a review from you guys! I'm considering buying one of them but don't know which one yet. Thanks!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 24, 2012 at 07:30 PM
That sounds SO cool! I hope my mom can enter for me! Good luck to everyone! :D
Posted by: Kassidy | October 24, 2012 at 08:18 PM
Kelley-Thanks for your question! :) It says in the official rules that "Winner is solely responsible for all other costs and expenses not otherwise mentioned herein." So I guess that means that airfare is not included. That's too bad! :( If you win you get the My American Girl doll of your choice.
Jaclynn-Both of those books are awesome!! I have the Doll Crafts book and have done many of the crafts, there are some great ideas in it. I've gotten the Doll Play book at the library and it has some fun ideas in it too! I recommend both of them!
Your Friend,

Jaclynn: Well, we have a trailer. My mom isn't as 'outdoorsy' as me and my dad, but we all enjoy it. We hike, we fish, we camp, we pick apples, we etc. It is so fun to do things! Though, it doesn't help that I have to share with my brother(who is 7 and I am pretty sure snores!)
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 12:12 AM
anna: I know!! I am 10! So I CAN'T have a facebook! Though, my parents do, but my mom enters SO many contests through facebook she probably would do one more. Not sure-she just started a wreck it ralph one. I find it totally useless to enter that. Though, I often win raffles. Just this Sunday: Won a new shirt at church of the new church site shirt. Tonight: Won a new AWANA bag when 2 or 3 years ago I won a different one. This AWANA year; even if I have 1 ticket, it is likely I'll win. Very strange, but I often do pray about that.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 12:17 AM
Do you think if you can't pay for the trip you still get the doll and bed?
Posted by: Kelley | October 25, 2012 at 09:26 AM
Liz:
Thank you so much!! I can't decide which one I want! I've been wanting Doll Play for a long time but then I started looking at Doll Crafts and I'm so confused now! LOL! Thanks again!
Amelia Rose: Yeah I'm not very outdoors-y. I couldn't do any of those things! Probably only picking apples! LOL! But I have Horse Riding lessons and I LOVE that! Horses are my favorite animal!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 25, 2012 at 10:45 AM
Kelley: I'm not sure. You'd probably need to ask Liz to ask them...though, if you entered they'd probably expect you to be able to. So I'm not sure...
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 11:20 AM
It's too bad that it is through Facebook. Our family isn't on Facebook. Although I don't really want to be. I'd LOVE to have a My American girl doll though.
Posted by: Christian homeschooler | October 25, 2012 at 12:29 PM
Amelia Rose: I understand completely! I don't want facebook, except for times like these! I wish they could just do the contest through their website. So that way everyone could have a chance to enter the contest.
Posted by: anna | October 25, 2012 at 12:37 PM
Liz,
I was just wondering, about when you are going to change the Doll Outfit Poll?
Sorry, that sounds really rude of me, I don't mean for it to sounds like it does.
Posted by: anna | October 25, 2012 at 01:32 PM
Jaclynn: By what you're saying, you don't hike or camp or even fish?? My dad is constantly asking when we'll go fishing again! The last time we went, I went on the log I always do and slipped. Fell right into the water....I wasn't exactly planning on getting 'cooled off' that way. It was SO hot, I dried in an hour. I am so short, I didn't touch the bottom of it...if I didn't know how to swim I would probably be freezing because the water was so cold!
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 01:33 PM
Amelia Rose: Nope! Never have, never will! LOL! Oh my gosh! How sad and scary!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 25, 2012 at 02:36 PM
Jaclynn: Have you gotten an account on AGFANMESSAGEBOARD yet?
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 03:18 PM
Jaclynn: Poor you! (: Wasn't really that bad, it was actually kinda fun, just unexpected.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 03:23 PM
Jaclynn: Oh, and, in case you were confused, the DAY was hot and the water was COOOLD! I actually got a caterpillar or something on me, and I think I touched sea weed. Just a little creepy, but not that bad.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 03:49 PM
Amelia Roes: No not yet! I'm not sure if I am or really want to enough to get one.
LOL! You're funny!
Yeah, our pool was like that this summer. Weather: hot, Pool water: COLD!!! LOL! I loved swimming in that water though! It made laugh cause it was so cold! LOLOL! I know I'm wierd! :D
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 25, 2012 at 04:43 PM
Amelia Rose: Oh wow! A caterpillar?! That IS creepy!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 25, 2012 at 04:48 PM
Jaclynn: I got one about a week ago, don't go on too often, but you can get ALOT of good things from it, like instructions for different doll crafts!
Well, I love hiking and exploring. I try to run when doing these...I love running! I can run faster than most people--even boys!
I don't know WHAT it was, but it was on me, came from the water, and looked like a caterpillar. I took it off with a leaf.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 25, 2012 at 09:28 PM
Amelia Rose: I'll have to ask my mom about it. It is only about AG stuff? Like not other things like we do on here right?
LOL!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 25, 2012 at 10:39 PM
Jaclynn: It is only American Girl...but Liz makes a new 'Non AG Talk' each month. There you can talk about anything....but everywhere else it just has to be about AmericanGirl, your AG dolls, AmericanGirl crafts, etc. You can read the official rules.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 26, 2012 at 01:00 PM
Ooooh! OK! I'll ask my mom about it and have her read the rules then! Thanks!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 26, 2012 at 02:53 PM
I don't think I'm going to join. This site is already so addicting and takes up alot of my time and I don't want to have another thing to go on and check every day. It would just be way too much! LOL! Thanks for the info but I think I changed my mind about it :)
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 26, 2012 at 03:01 PM
Amelia Rose: I decided to join after all! I already registered but I'm waiting for the email to come! It seems like so much fun!!! LOL!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 26, 2012 at 09:05 PM
Jaclynn: I don't check it every day, but as often as I can...what is your username? I'm AmericanGirlBookworm. My account was approved on the 14th.
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 27, 2012 at 12:28 AM
Amelia Rose: It's JaclynnLovesAG. It was approved last night!

Jaclynn: NICE!!I just looked at your account!
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 27, 2012 at 08:37 PM
I entered! But, what AG store? I hope it's not in NYC, Because we live so far away from it! And I really hope I win! I really hope that it will be an AG store that is close to me. Good luck to all!
Posted by: God'sGirl | October 29, 2012 at 01:01 PM
OH NO! ummmm it is in NYC.... We can't make it, even if we did win! :( I hope I still get the doll and stuff even if we don't go to the AG store in NYC! :(
Posted by: God'sGirl | October 29, 2012 at 01:02 PM
God'sGirl: I know! I do too! I just want the doll and stuff as well! LOL! I'd probably give the whole stuff to go to NYC to someone else ;)
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 29, 2012 at 02:29 PM
Jaclynn & God's Girl(or madcat): I know!! I live SO far from it, and am already going to go there next summer, so it doesn't really sound THAT bad, but I don't really want to go THERE that FAR!
Posted by: Amelia Rose | October 29, 2012 at 05:07 PM
Amelia Rose: Yeah! We live in the same Country so we live about the same distance away! LOL! I don't really WANT to travel. I'd miss all my stuff and the comforts of home!
~Jaclynn
Posted by: Jaclynn (Bitty Beanies) | October 29, 2012 at 06:57 PM
I hope they pick more than just 1 winner!
I hope i don't have to go to the AG place.... :( It's to far away if it's in NYC! I am sooo sad! I probably won't win, anyway :(
