Where is the Camp Memories post? It will show up later today – I had planned on posting it yesterday but the weather was so nice and our little town did its fireworks celebration yesterday that we decided to stop what we were doing around the house and head out to the fireworks. It was a beautiful night, we sat with our friends, listened to bands, watched the fireworks and had a great time. A perfect way to finish up the week.
Now on to what your dolls have been up to all week!
From Cordelia – Rose has gone for a walk in the park with her puppy and is very happy to meet her friend, Marisa. It looks as if her puppy is also happy to see Marisa! Meanwhile, Katherine is preparing a surprise for Rose— a mini camp for their dolls! (see the memory board for week three for a photo of this).
From Melangell – This is my A Girl for all Time Matilda wearing her ballgown also from A Girl for all Time. My husband got it for me for my birthday when he was in London a couple of months ago. I love how the cute mask is molded to fit her face!
From Cora: Elizabeth’s all ready for bed. She’s staying overnight at Grandma’s house.
From Rachael – The girls decided to do some major baking this week and they wanted to send in a photo! Kirsten, Addy, Molly, and Josefina are doing all of the work while Felicity, Elizabeth, and Kit enjoy the treats and look at the latest AG release on their laptop!
From Tony – Jane is taking her pet lamb, Posie, for a walk in the park. She’s wearing the new outfit she got for her birthday, June 24. The dress is from eBay and the hat is Marie-Grace’s that I re-worked a little.
From Bethany M – I recently made a superhero outfit for my doll, Kit. You can’t see all of it here, but I liked the picture. Kit is stopping a thief from stealing the diamond crown, the jewel of the museum. For a video about this, go to my YouTube channel.
From Kaf Frum – For 18″ doll fans in Australia, if you have not found them already Kmart has started selling the Our Generation line (yay). Journey Girls are in Toys R Us. Shannon went shopping this week, and now has the OG laptop and 2 new outfits. Winter has suddenly arrived so she might try the outfits on in front of the fire.
From Georgia – Jess riding her scooter.
From Cassie – Thursday was the last day of school, at least for me! That means more time for sewing and doll crafts, yay. Follow me on instagram (@ag_roses) for more AG photography!
From Isabella – Isabelle and Addy celebrated there 13th birthday together on Tuesday. One of their gifts was mini dolls. Isabelle got Caroline ( who looks like a mini Isabelle) and Addy got Ruthie since she is sadly retiring .
From Shelby-Grace – I’m having a giveaway on my blog with this adorable dress! I’d love it if you entered -http://ohmydollies.blogspot.com/2014/06/my-very-first-giveaway-enter-below.html
From Suzanne – Saige has patriotic fashion all wrapped up with these fun bandanna dresses. You can see how to make them at dollsonadime.com.
What a cute owl dress and hat from Darlene!

I can’t belive KMART is selling TARGETS doll stuff.
Cute pics everyone!!!! Suzzane, yesterday
I was looking at a local Walmart and they have bansanna duck tape
Olivia – Our Generation is not owned by Target! They are owned by the Battat company and Battat just happens to have an agreement with Target in the US. Outside of the US, Battat is selling the Our Generation line in a variety of places depending on what stores are the best fit in that particular company. I don’t think there is Target in Australia, so Kmart may be the equivalent or best option.
Thanks Char good to know.
Why is Kmart selling Target’s stuff?Well,at least Toys R Us is selling their own stuff.Maybe…Target isn’t in Australia.Sorry Australians if I’m wrong,I live in the US.
Oh,Char,I was typing when you commented.Thanks Char,great to know!
I always wondered why the clothing pieces had the company Battat instead of target!
Great photos everyone!

Happy Sunday everyone! Great photos!
I should really send something in one of these days 😉
Bel, bel, bel! Nice photos, everyone!
Great pictures everyone!
Cool giveaway Shelby-Grace! Could you make it so that people can comment anonymously on your blog, because I am not allowed to have any Internet accounts at the moment and I love your blog and I would love to comment but I can’t because you don’t have anonymous commenting! Please make anonymous commenting possible on you blog!!!
To clear up the confusion: Target DOESN’T own OG!!! Battat owns the company, Target just serves as the “storefront” for OGs in Australia (I think.) Just like ho Barnes and Noble doesn’t own American Girl, but they sell Mini Dolls. Smell what I’m stepping in? Great pics everyone, and have a fabulous week!!!!!

Thanks for reading my blog, Kaitlyn H.! I just changed it so anonymous comments are allowed 🙂
Char do you know if Ruthie will come back in stock?
Ruthie just retired if she is out of stock 🙁
Just to let you know, us Australians DO have Target. We’re pretty much like Americans, only better!
Now OG dolls are on sale at both David Jones AND Kmart! I got those same outfits, too! I also got the glasses set, laptop and blue sneakers.
Thanks Shelby-Grace! I am so excited to comment on your blog!!!

Target Australia sold Battat stuff about 10 years ago, probably more than that actually. The 18″ doll lines in Australia haven’t really existed since until Toys R Us started stocking Journey Girls, and the BFC ink line (very briefly). Barbie has always been mega huge and every other doll line just fell by the way, though the Pink aisle did get some trimming when Bratz first turned up.Thats what I’ve noticed anyway.
Kmart Australia last year started stocking a very cheaply made (in my opinion) 18″ doll with wooden wardrobes, and I was just going to get another one the other day for my Journey Girls when I saw the Our Generation things and nearly fell over.
Whoever owns Our generation – thankyou for sending your things to Australia.
Thanks Kaffrum. I rarely go to Kmart, but will take a trip to see what is available.
Great photos everyone-it looks so warm it the US you make me so jealous each week. It is currently freezing where I am in Australia!

Tony, please extend belated birthday greetings to Jane—her new dress is just lovely. I wonder if our girls met up in the park on Sunday while walking their pets???
