Alex's 7th Birthday






Through the generous contributions of our viewers, Alex received her first American Girl doll. We drove to downtown Chicago to pick it up on Saturday afternoon (the 4th of October). Dad got a great parking space at a meter just one block off of Michigan Avenue at the base of the Hancock tower. It was really a great piece of work. Alex chose Felicity and a few different outfits.


Also, Sammi was really excited to get a Hershey bar from Grandpa and Grandma Scrogham. Since she's seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory a few times recently, she expressed her disappointment at not getting a golden ticket, though.

so which grandmas pitched in for the doll?

did she come with her book? is it too old for Alex or is she reading it?
