W.O.W – and you know, that memory will be with them for the rest of their lives. What a great family thing to do and that Dad would get into it with them makes it all the more special

My girls drool over every catalog that comes to the house. I wish they were a little cheaper. So far, all they get to do is dream about them.

Oh my goodness, that sounds divine! I loved the American Girl books when I was very young. It sort of has exploded now days. I am not a huge fan of them anymore, but my goodness, I would jump at the chance to eat there just for the fun of it for me! Wow! It is beautiful and gorgeous, and what an experience! I am glad you shelled out for it.

These pictures are absolutely awesome! I love the one with the ice cream drip on Sophia's face 🙂
And your red shirt is so cute!

Ok, I even got a little emotional. I love how it wraps its little arms around everything I think girl-hood should be (and not Bratz).

How old does P need to be before I get her a doll? 4?

So worth the money. Money goes eventually, so trading it for memories that are everlasting is an amazing investment IMO. I've taken my family to visit friends in Miami for 3 years running. It's not easy financially but I'm so glad we've done it. None of us will ever forget it and I'm sure your kids will always remember that trip. btw, there are actually 3 Joels in that picture lol

Yeah. Paying for a memory like that is definitely worth it. Plus, you got some delicious food, too! 🙂

My daughter would LOVE this, but I think my family would have to divide and conquer and send Dad off with the boys somewhere else. I can already see the boys rolling their eyes…

Lara, I grew up as a little girl in Chicago, and I LOVED the American Girl Place. It is magical! I'm so happy for you and your girls. What an amazing memory!
