Happy Thanksgiving~!!!!

 I love Thanksgiving. The food, the family, the parade. Growing up I would run for the TV first thing in the morning because the Macy's Day Parade starts so early. Or maybe I just always slept so late that morning. Either way, it was great. I loved seeing my favorite cartoon characters as ginormous balloons. Of course I had to try to recreate this feeling for the dolls of Shedville.

Wanna watch the parade? Check it out HERE. 





Then after the parade we would all gather to eat the feast. We've been vegan for at least the last 4 years, so our Thanksgiving spread looks a little different, but still so many tasty choices.







I also love the stories that they would tell us in school about the Native Americans and the Pilgrams. I always wondered what a "traditional" meal would taste like.







Kenya looks particularly cute in her outfit.



No matter how you spend your Thanksgiving, I hope it's the best Thanksgiving ever!!

Shedville Academy 2024

  While on Spring Break, Shedville Academy got a make over. The classrooms got cleaned, they added a music/AV room, and they got an entire new gym where they eat lunch. Here's the tour: Those kids ran out of here so fast for Spring Break that they left behind a huge mess. This locker got tucked behind the AV room.

Students are going to be able to vote for a class president when they return. The Gym/ Cafeteria The school just keeps growing and growing, but to save on space they set the gym up as a Cafeteria. It's a little messy right now, but it's still under constuction. There's still boxes from the schools Toy & Book Donations over Christmas. The bottom shelf is a great place for kids that brought their lunches to store them. But it's gotten a little overloaded with snacks. The basketball hoops also fold up, getting them out of the w...

I'm back!

 As some of you know, I started out here on Blogger. But when they updated a few years ago, things got glitchy. I decided it was time to just pay for a domain. And AnAmericanGirlMom.com was born. This was expensive but fun. I also thought that I could make money from my blog (like they say online). I never made a dime. I followed all the "make money" tips and followed YouTubers advice for setting up the blog, and nothing. Good thing I don't do this for the money. Why do I do this? I love sharing my dolls and their stories with the world. I love posting on Facebook and Instagram. I love making short stop motions for my YouTube channel. Having my own domain really helped to share my stories. The unforeseen problem is that once my domain expired, so did all my content. I really hate that. I feel like everything I spent my money on should still be available, but it isn't. Years of content gone unless I renew it. This wasn't true with Blogger. For the 1st year with ana...
