FASHION SHOW
Nicole and her American Girl doll, Kylie, went to an American Girl Fashion Show last week!! This fashion show was a fund-raising event sponsored by the Ronald McDonald House, and took place at the University of Delaware campus.

Nicole was oohing and aahing over the clothes worn by the models and their dolls as they strutted the runway, and I was pretty impressed with the tasty lunch and the level of organization of the event! But most of all, I was impressed with the level of fun Nicole had with her new friend Olivia, who she had never met before despite the long friendship I've had with Olivia's mom! These giggling girls acted like they have been friends forever, and we are hoping that this was the start of another long friendship! (I won't even dwell on the only sour point of the day --- the amount of money I paid for the "hairstyle" Nicole chose for her doll. Two small braids down the front of her face, which I could have done myself for free! $8 and a week later, I am still a little bitter. I keep telling myself the money was going to a good cause, and that does make me feel slightly better!)
