I promise this is my last Christmas post. But I had told some people about this gift so I wanted to show the pictures:
When I was a little girl my mom and brothers (mostly Jesse) made me a barbie house for Christmas. I had a thing for barbies and this was the most glorious gift and got tons of use! It's my most memorable Christmas gift. Not just because I liked barbies but because it was thoughtful and my family had put time into making it for me. Emma started getting into make-believe and discovered barbies this year. So when I noticed an old changing table in our house was the right heighth for barbies I started getting ideas .
Here's the letter Emma wrote for Santa. For those of you who don't read Emma let me interpret: "Santa, I want a barbie house [heart] Emma" and then she draws a picture. She also wrote and drew one for Weston's blue lightning request.
Christmas morning Santa came to visit us at my mom's house in Vegas and Emma reminded him she wanted a barbie house (probably because she didn't see any house-shaped gifts under the tree).
A week later we arrived home and found Santa had pulled through after all!
I wanted to do more but was getting ready for our trip. Oh well, the details were really for me.

Wow. That is incredible! The details are amazing (especially that mini pic of the kids)! What a good mom you are. And exceedingly talented.
Now the question is...did she recognize the changing table?
Lucky girl! I loved Barbies when I was young. I still have my first Barbie and an Allen doll (he was Ken's best friend.)
She's a lucky girl. Good job.
so cute!
