a little girl's dream come true

Or should I say MY childhood dream just came true. I remember as a little girl looking inside of doll houses and imagining myself living inside of it. I even found myself reclaiming that childhood dream when we went to the 8th floor of Dayton's at Christmas time a couple of years ago to see the Mary Poppin's display. Part of me wanted to just crawl into the set and arrange all of the little miniatures. Just last week, my dear friend, Sara, in her endeavors to clean out a room in her basement came across a childhood favorite of hers. This doll house. Sara does not have a daughter yet, so wanted another little girl to be able to enjoy it! Jeneva is so lucky! Here is a little tour of the new "home" inside of our home.

The upstairs kids bedroom. The orange furniture goes so well with the green carpet and retro wallpaper.


Dare I say....this bathroom is cooler than my own bathroom!


The dining room complete with a table set for four, a high chair and a grandfather clock.


Another bedroom complete with the latest furniture fashions....including a record player. I wonder if we could hook up an i-pod to that! Ha!


This kitchen IS bigger than my own!


Here is the basement rec room. The striped wallpaper makes the ceilings look higher don't you think?!


The best part is the garage....complete with a 1976 Chevy Impala!

She refused to smile nice for this picture (she's stubborn like her father:) and she plays with it for hours. Josh and Levi are even here right now and playing with it!

where's jude?

jeneva stuck two of her dolls by jude. either he's happy because he has girls on either side of him or because he realized he's not the smallest anymore.

monday's go like...


this: Joshua and Levi come over to play while their parent's go to work. Having 3 four year olds in the house is a blast! Levi's prayer at dinner last week was: "Dear God, THANK YOU that Jeneva likes to play with me ALL the time....(long pause)....Well, is anyone ELSE gonna pray?"
