Ha...Katelyn hasn't played with dolls in I don't know how long.
She had the best of everything growing up...NOT buying stuff....experiencing stuff.....
Like: Harleys with my Dad, horses with my inlaws, Jeeps & 4wheelers at our house, learning to sew, cook and garden with my grandmother (my Dad's side), learning to fish by my grandfather (my Mom's side), Shopping with my mother, etc.
AND it all continues....most of us now have classic cars, so that is our thing now....car shows, swap meets, burnouts and cruise nights. One group of friends have their own drag cars and do the drag strips....that is what she wants to do.....
Well, her list changes....it is still vet, baker, fashion designer, model, dragster! HA!
AND she wants to marry Bo Duke.....Ha! In fact, she seen a boy that looks like Bo Duke, but her age (I think he was two years older)...they would smile at each other...but neither one would say anything....I even offered her $20 (yes $20) to go talk to him.....BUT she wouldn't....I said shot....give me $20 and I will talk to him for you! hee,hee

wow, she and my nieces have gotten to experience many of the same things. My sister is way older (22 yrs) than me and my nieces are lucky enough to have grown up on a small 'farm' where they got to experiences horses, they have a lake and boats so they can go fishing, my mom (their g-ma) and I have helped them learn to cook and be crafty, their brother who is 29 does all the western/country boy type stuff so they know how to hunt, fish, ride 4wheelers, motorbikes, etc. Their other brother (26) used to work for a drag racing team, so they got to go to all the races. He quit that not too long and is now building motors for a nascar team, so they get to go to those races now. I'm not sure what they want to be when they grow up yet. The oldest one likes to talk to boys a little too much and the youngest one is like me and wouldn't approach a boy on her on if you paid her.
oh I hope I get Lily and Katelyn, I could have LOTS of fun shopping for them! even if I get you and mojo I may have to send a little something for katelyn too!
