An American Girl Mom

 

 Shedville Academy adds yet another sport Seems like the school is adding new stuff all the time. After years of t-ball, the players are finally old enough to either do baseball or softball. This year we are adding an all girls team of softball players! These gals are ready to play some ball!

  Happy Ice Cream Day!! Nothing better than some yummy, vegan ice cream. My personal favorite is oatmilk chocolate peanut butter. One of my very first jobs was at a hand dipped ice cream place. I used to have to start my mornings with making waffle cones, so when American Girl came out with the Jen's Splendid Waffle Cone Set , I knew I had to have it. Rylee owns and run Nice Cream Cones, Shedville's only ice cream truck. Unfortunately she has so many choices that they don't all fit inside the truck. So for the busier times of the year, she sets up an ice cream stand in front of the truck to help with the overflow. And if she didn't have enough on the menu, people have really been asking for waffle cones and waffle bowls. Good thing American Girl has her covered with this new waffle set. The only problem, where is she going to put it? You'll see in my YouTube video of unboxing this set that I love it, but I have zero space for it. Rylee is just gonna have to make it...

  The new deck was a lot of work. It took weeks and weeks. Then I posted it on my Facebook page and the first response was a person who had also remade their pool. Theirs was better. I can admit that, and I can also say that I have future plans of using their idea. So their pool allowed the dolls to actually sit down in the pool. I'm going to tear out my whole deck to make sure my dolls can sit in their pool. But that's the future. For now, this is my pool/patio make-over. I did think the lighting was pretty good, but now that I'm looking at the photos I think it could be better, so I'll work on that when I work on the pool. I love how the area turned out.  This is the view in to the OG beach house from the pool. And this is the view of the pool from inside the OG beach house. Eat your heart out Barbie! My patio even has a Snack Shack. This pool is going to bring so much summer fun. Happy Summer Everyone!
