If I could only be a kid again...

We went to a birthday party tonight for a friend of DH's daughter (DH is in Rockport catching no fish offshore).  The little girl was turning 7 and they had just moved, so we got a tour of the house.  She has a dollhouse for her American Girl dolls!  The "house" was bigger than I was.  It was insane.  To give you an idea of the scale, F was riding on the dolls' scooter and it wasn't that ridiculous.  What I would have given to have something like that as a kid...

I secretly wanted to clear all the kids out and play with it.  It even had hardwood floors and a pull out lawn area.

We need a bigger house.  I know my dad can make this thing.

  • LOL.  I never knew what American Girl dolls were until the nest.  But I would have felt the same way about wanting to play with it!

    Does he need my dad's plans from the 50s?  F keeps asking for a dishwasher....they don't make dishwashers in the 50s!

    The plans are so old.  He made the oven window a rectangle, but they are still MCM.

    Lol! He made us one when we were smaller so I wonder if he still has those plans. I remember it. Lightblue!!

    I didn't get that when I was a kid.  There is STILL a half finished dollhouse in my parents basment (not that I am bitter).  I had a cardboard 80s play kitchen.  Sigh...

    I still have yet to banish the play kitchen to F's room.  So bad.
