First Day of Camp Innerstar

"Oh goodness" Felicity cried as she rushed to her computer. "The campers will be arriving any minute!"
"I hope the girls in my cabin are nice, and that they get along" she thought.

There was no more time for thinking, because Felicity heard foot steps approaching. She quickly opened the registration page on her laptop and looked up.

Her gaze was greeted by a fair skinned, smiling girl in a very large sun hat. "Hello" Felicity said, "Welcome to CAMP Innerstar. May I please have your name?"

"My name is Lilly Anne Taylor" the girl quickly replied.
"Well, it is nice to meet you Lilly. You are actually the first one here" Felicity said
"Oh . . . um" replied Lilly.

Seeing her hesitation Felicity quickly said "you can stay here, in the office, until another one of your cabin-mates arrives."
"Okay" Lilly said with a relieved smile as she turned to find a place to sit.

As she did another girl, with long dark hair, arrived. "Welcome to CAMP Innerstar" Felicity said.

Loudly and proudly she introduced herself "I am Hailey Alyssa Morgan" she said.

"Hailey you are in the same cabin as Lilly" Felicity said. Lilly spun around when she heard her name. Just in time to see Felicity motioning in the direction of their cabin. "I think you two can find it from here" Felicity continued.

Lilly and Hailey walked off towards their cabin.

Right then, yet another girl arrived. She was very bubbly and excited as Felicity checked her in.

"Name please" Felicity asked. "Rachel Maria Rodriguez" The girl replied

When Rachel arrived at Cabin Dragonfly, she found Lilly and Rachel talking.. "Ahem" Rachel said to get their attention. "Um, I'm Rachel." she continued

Lilly and Hailey both looked up and studied their new cabin mate for a second before saying anything . . .

. . . By the time Felicity, their cabin counselor, stopped by, the girls were talking like they had known each other for years. "Oh, good!" Felicity thought to herself as she went to join them.
"We are going to have a wonderful summer!" she said as she walked through the door.

I hope you enjoyed this little story! More from CAMP Innerstar coming tomorrow!

Summer Road Trip

You may be wondering why I haven't posted in a very long time. The answer to that is that I was on vacation. Felicity came with me. We went on a road trip out west to North and South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. Here are some pictures of our trip.

Painted Canyon, North Dakota

Rock Climbing, Montana

That's a long ways down!, Montana

ROCKS, Montana

Yellowstone "Lower Falls", Montana

This is a nice place to sit, Montana

Big tree, Montana

Log, Montana

Another log, Montana

Cool stump, Montana

Grand Tetons wildflowers, Wyoming

More flowers, Wyoming

Sunshine!, South Dakota

BIG stump, South Dakota

Rock Wall, South Dakota

Okay, so the three main places that we traveled to were Yellowstone National Park, Grand Tetons National Park, and Mount Rushmore. Though you may not believe me, based on these pictures, but it was very cold on our trip, for 4 days it did not get above 50 degrees. It rained, hailed, and SNOWED! So, we built a snowman of course! It was very fun vacation.

Have you gone on a summer vacation?

Camp Innerstar

Hey Darlings,

I'm sorry that I have not posted in a while. I had so many school finals to prepare for. I just finished up all of my finals yesterday! School is all done and I am supper excited for summer! I have an exciting doll announcement too - Camp Innerstar! I am a big fan of Doll Diaries' Camp Doll Diaries and thought I would create a doll camp of my own. A lot of my inspiration for this camp is credited to them. I highly encourage you to check out Doll Diaries. (The link is under" My Favorite Doll Blogs and Websites" tab.)Below is the new camp logo. I will be doing many camp related crafts throughout the summer and I invite you to join me in the fun!

Perspective

Hey Darlings,

Here are two pictures in which the placement of my doll stayed the same, I just zoomed out. Isn't it cool how easily we can change the perspective of pictures?

Which picture do you like best, why?

American Girl Doll Outfits: Review

Hey Darlings,

This is a review of the American Girl Doll clothing that I recently purchased. It is all currently on sale online at American Girl. I hope this is helpful!

Brocade Dress

I am really happy with this dress. It is super cute and looks great on all my dolls. There aren't really any mix and match componants to it but it was still a wonderful purchase.

Polar Bear Pj's

Felicity loves her new pj's. They go really nice with her hair. This is the first pair of American Girl pajamas that I have personally purchased. I never really saw the point before but I totally fell in love with these when I saw them in the catalogue. They are even better in person.

Garden Boots

At first I thought that $14 for a pair of boots was kind of crazy, even if they were on sale. After seeing them in person I think they are one of the best purchases I have made with Aerican Girl. I have so many outfits that have read and pink in them and these boots look good with everyone of them. The boots are a little hard to get on but once you take the on and off a few times they loosen up.

Same pink and green heart charm (middle and far right)

One thing that I didn't like was that the Brocade dress came with the same charm that I had aleady gotten with a diferent outfit. I wish they could atleast change the colors.
