Girls in Germany Always Wear Pink!

Where has Barbie been in Germany lately???  Bavaria!

We Had Two Beautiful Young Ladies to Dinner Last Night

We had company for dinner last night at our home in Germany!  Barbie made friends with a lovely young guest immediately!  She promised to come and visit all the Barbies very soon!

Doesn't she look lovely in her Oktoberfest outfit!

So Many Pretty Dolls in the Basement!

Working in the Barbie Basement today!  So many pretty dolls!!!

There is Rock Hudson and Friend...

My husband is obsessed with 007 movies...

Then there are 007 dolls all by themselves...

More classic stars!

And the multi-talented!

In Bingen Germany There is a Restaurant... Barbie Went There!

She looked so chic in her little red jacket, there was a chill in the air, and she choose her black vinyl boots, Her cute leggings were red with red lace inserts.  The long sleeve top matched.  The jewelry was silver, and her hat was soft white with a little bling.  The restaurant was Greek, and in Bingen, Germany on the Rhine River.

 

This lovely place to eat is now a favorite of Barbie! 

There are gardens and fountains just outside the eatery.

There are mountains and vineyards on 

the other side of the Rhine River.

And there were people coming from a Medieval Festival too!

Everything was interesting and fun!

It always is in Germany!

 

There she is peeking around the corner by the front door at Restaurant Delphi!

We Were Here, We Were There, We Were Everywhere!

You might recognize this spot...  Hint, it is time to buy groceries.

 

Yep, it was the four of us buying groceries at the Commissary at Wiesbaden.

Then on Saturday... we were here...

So where's Barbie???

Guess Where Randy is Taking Us

To Florence... and that would be Florence, Italy, not Florence Texas...

I Love Gabby, She Plays With Me

                           One day she just made pictures of dolls as she played with them!

And Where in Germany is Barbie Now???

Here's a hint, she is in the hotel hallway right outside our room in this picture!

We were in the mountains in a small town with lots of flowers!

There were dolls everywhere!

This picture is of the dolls for sale in a shop at the hotel where we were staying...

Might get a better look at that hotel... then you can see All the dolls...

I think even closer...

Closer still...

There's Barbie...

But exactly where is she at?

Well the story involves a real life Bavarian King, and a real life castle...

The New Swan Castle on the Rock...

More tomorrow of the fairy tale which goes with the real live king, 

and this real castle in the mountains of Germany!

The story begins, "Once upon a time,"

And believe it or not.... this Barbie is in the story, and she is in my basement 

in the Barbie Room in Germany too!

No it isn't that Barbie!  But she is there too...

No, no, no, that's not her either... 

Hint:  Sissy!

Tomorrow ladies...

The Barbies Are Going to Be Traveling Europe

I have started taking the Barbies with me on our trips out into
 Germany sight seeing...  They are wonderful ambassadors!

So in that spirit when we rented a little convertible this weekend, and went to Wiesbaden shopping, two of the girls went along.  These two dolls represent one of my grand-daughters Gabby, and a beautiful little friend from church whose name is Princess!  I think it is just so kool to be named Princess in real life.  The real Princess of course is much prettier than my Barbie Doll, so is my grand-daughter Gabby!  However the dolls made new friends at the Wiesbaden PX and commissary.  It was back to school weekend here Germany, and there was face painting, balloon fun, and all kinds of other booths at the PX.  As I said, the girls and I had great fun... even my husband Randy was amused and entertained by the interactions we had!

Boy, riding with the top down makes a mess of your hair!

Face painting was our first stop.

The girls made a pretty new friend!

The balloon sculpture lady was also very friendly!

The Harley bikes caught their eye too!

All girls love red Mustangs...

My Barbies Have Arrived in Germany!

I am so HAPPY!

And finally the flooring has been completed in the basement
room I had planned as their home in Germany.

What wonderful ambassadors they will soon make!

They had to move to the living room during the renovations downstairs...

Just wait until you see the space I am creating for them!

Soon girls, very soon!

This is Just the Coolest Ever!

Don't you wish you had one of these!

         

Some of Us Remain Children at Heart Forever

Certainly I fall in that category, but I have found another friend who does too!  

Her You Tube Channel is cute as can be!
Count Gabby in there too!

                           

The Creativity of This Young Woman is Delightful

What ingenuity this young mother uses as she creates her little fantasy toys!

I just marvel as her toddler plays in the background!

She is an excellent designer.

The grand-daughters will love these videos!

 

          

More of That Great Artist and Collector!

One of my Barbies is waiting anxiously for me to make some of these...

She really needs them!

I am going to Texas, and Gabby and I will be making some with my grand-daughters!

Isn't this artist talented!

        

I Am a Fan of These Videos!

       Isn't this the coolest thing!
A boat ride is fun every once in awhile, but every Barbie Family needs a stroller!

You will find her work enchanting, and her creations will steal your heart!
