the winning streak continues

Every year, the Rainy Day Doll Makers in Sitka sell raffle tickets for an American Girl doll. Cassie and I always purchase tickets. This year the doll is Julie -- the "historic" doll from 1974.

1974! When she first came out, Lori and I laughed because she looks just like us.

We bought our raffle tickets, knowing that I would win, and I did! She came home yesterday and was warmly welcomed by the other dolls in the house.

I used to love to play with those dolls. Cristal and I got a very good laugh right now.

We love you!

Congratulations on your new addition! She does look like us, she dresses like us, too You had the gauchos and boots (which I borrowed), I had the purse, the roller skates and the Barbie Beauty Center. But I don't understand how 1974 is now a historical era.
