Doll Diaries Halloween Parade

It is time for the 2009 edition of our Dolloween Parade! Get your American Girl dolls, Build a Bear friends, Barbie, and all your other dolls decked out for Halloween and take their picture. All dolls are welcome to enter (no pictures of humans though!)
Rules:
- You many enter as many photos as you wish, however, they must be Halloween related.
- They must be your own personal photos.
- If you are under 14 you must have permission from your parents.
- Photos will be moderated and I have the right to remove any photos that are not appropriate.
- Once you upload your photo, leave a comment in the comment box telling us which photo is yours.
We will be awarding prizes for the most creative entries. I have 2 sets of RETIRED American Girl Doll Club red espadrille shoes for dolls that will be used as prizes – that means there will be two winners.
Add your photo to the parade by selecting the “Add Photo” button below. Then put the caption for your photo and your name in the caption box.
UPDATED!! The winners are Hannah (Super Coconut) and Marjorie (for submitting so many great pictures!) – I have emailed you both.

Cute! I better go finish mine!

Cool! I will take a picture of my doll in her halloween costume soon!
What if we don’t want to win anything, but still want to participate?
At a minimum I have a few pairs of the retired American Girl Club Espadrilles for dolls that I can use as prizes.
If you participate and don’t want to win, just drop me a note and I’ll redraw if your name comes up.

YAY! I just submitted!
Come on girls – we need more photos in the parade! I know it is still early in the month, but get your dolls ready for Halloween and upload your photos.
Yay my pic was posted!
I keep telling my mom i want a just like you doll, but she keeps telling me to get a my twinn doll. I don’t want one!!! I think i would cry if she bought me one, (this is my opinion) i think they are really ugly.
I’m making a few more costumes. A couple of my dolls and my 1 webkinz will be in the picture.
Too busy … yawn.
Just submitted a photo. May send more, I’m not sure I’m tired too (grin).
Hope you likee!
I went on AG website, and Felicity’s doll is gone!! I was shocked, as Elizabeth’s Charlotte is still there. Molly’s nightstand necessities are also gone, so Kit is the only one left with some. I guess they won’t even bother making it for Rebecca or Julie. Pity, I was looking forward to Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm and Little House books in miniature.
cool! do u guys know they r archiving Kirsten?! i was so happy she was gunna be archived!
OMG! katherine, that’s adorable!
Umm… ag doll lover, there’s been a post about it for who knows how long, and it says on the website. Plus that’s kinda mean, people love Kirsten alot! So please keep those comments to yourself.
I’m doing the same thing on my blog! Be sure to send me your pictures too! There are more details on my blog.
: ( My parents are going to California without me. I never leave this state!!

To ag doll lover, alexis, and all other My Twinn bashers,
My Twinn dolls are not all creepy. Granted, the newer ones can be unattractive. They have awful photography too. But really, they are wonderful dolls. I have six of them and I love having them around. It is so much fun to play with the face molds, skin tones, hair and eye colors. They’re so big and fun to dress. There is just so much more room for creativity than American Girls.
Let’s just not bash any dolls, because you never know who happens to love them. At least use more tactful wording than “ugly” and “creepy”. And Kirsten used to have a wonderful collection. American Girl stripped hers down to nothing. I am kind of glad she is being put out of her misery and I look foward to seeing a new historical character.
Now, I need to finish my Chemistry homework (electron configuration, anyone?) and go to bed so I don’t feel like I was hit by a bus tomorrow morning.
ok well sorry Lily but I still don’t like my twinn dolls and I dont own one but i ordered one for my friend and I opened it to see what it looked like because my mom said I could get one if i wanted but when I saw it I was like no way! but thats my opinion also I am not very happy they are retiring Kirsten so I guess we have opposite opinions
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! go to the americangitl website everything is different!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!! GO TO THE AMERICANGIRL WEBSITE EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
huurry!!!!!!!
See, that’s a much nicer way to explain why you don’t like My Twinn dolls. The older dolls (pre 2003) are much, much nicer.
I’ll submit photos of my clan for Halloween.
Gracie, that’s too bad. I’ve been to Cali… it’s not that great except seaworld and disneyland.
I went to California this summer. It was a great place to visit … Disneyland, Universal Studios, Hollywood homes tour, but there was a jerk at Laguna Beach. I was learning to surf and he got really mad at my instructor for “catching his waves”. It was ridiculous.
My picture is on now, but aw man, some of my dolls are only showing up half way. Hope it’s still an enjoyable pic.
l live in Northern California, in the Bay Area. l personally think it’s cool, except it gets foggy. lt may seem sunny on t.v., but believe me it isn’t.
Audra – click on the thumbnail images to see the entire photo – that goes for all of the pictures.
Char is right we need more pics
I’ll be sending in my pic soon! Maybe this weekend.

Sarah, I like Sonali best out of the three. I hope you get Kirsten, she is a lovely doll. I have Nellie, too – isn’t she such a cutie? And I love Rebecca and am planning on getting her for my birthday in 2011.
I just found out from my mom that we have what I will need to make my costumes! Yay! I am so happy we (I mean I) won’t have to buy anything! I hope to make them and send my pictures in this weekend. I also have to make my own costume, finish decorating the house for Halloween (my brother and I love doing this and make a nice house every year), and prepare for my AG Fall 2009 photo shoot…plus school and skating! Not too much, I guess, but I am feeling a little overwhelmed, as I have to finish the house, the costumes/photos for my dolls and my own costume in15 days. But now that I think about it, 15 days is plenty of time. Sorry for the rambling.
sarah,
I like Sonali best too and Ihope you do get Kirsten!
woops sorry i dont know how that happened

Thnx. I named her after 1 of my bffs after she moved away.
That’s sad that your friend moved away. My best friend used to be on the other side of my block but now she lives 45 minutes away.
Ya. And my other BFF, (we’ve known each other 4 almost our entire lives!!) Moved away just a few months ago. I miss her terribly!!! She’s not very far from where I live but still, I can’t see her evry day anymore!!
Glad to see we have more pictures added!! If you submitted a photo, please make sure you leave a comment here telling us which one is yours.
My picture is the one of super coconut and her pets. We are both being super puppies this year for Halloween! We like to try and get matching costumes every year!
I am so excited about the prize! Hope I win! I have seen those shoes before and love them!!!
My picture is the one called “alexis dolloween picture”
I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve seen this website. I dressed my dollies in their halloween costumes this weekend. I’ll take pictures of them soon and put them up too. The picture I uploaded today is a picture I took three years ago of Jess, Kit, Marisol, Emily and Molly.

Marjorie you put A lot in!
Yay! Ok I just remembered that I have the Irish dance outfit for Nellie to go as for Halloween! Hooray! So, here are the dolls you will be seeing in the picture I submit:
Ruthie as a Pink Princess
Nellie as an Irish Dancer
Kirsten as St. Lucia
Wow, no comments in almost 24 hours. Weird.
Sara– sorry about your BFFs moving. :’( My BFF moved away at the beginning of summer, but the worst part is I moved to a different school so I don’t have any of my other friends to turn to! :’(
OMG!!! americangirls were JUST on QVC!!!
Char, I entered my photos, but I don’t see them.
And thanks for letting all of us enter this contest! It was a load of fun to create and find costumes!!! I couldn’t take a picture of all of my dolls to the lack of costumes and patience.
Okay, I will try to enter mine this afternoon or Friday afternoon. Sorry for procrastinating!
Mine will definitely be up this afternoon! If not, then tomorrow or Friday!
pioneerfan04 I love Nellies wig I need to get that for my doll! ( does it get tangeled?)
