Our Boy and His Cricket

Imagination is the key to a life full of adventure!  That's my thought at least and I'm sticking with it.  :)

As a child I had a beautiful playhouse that I spent many hours in, cooking, playing, dreaming and just being in my own "big girl" space.  I loved it and treasure those memories so much.  Thanks dad!

When we knew we would be adopting a little girl my mind became full of all things make believe and dreamed of having a daughter who would find trunks full of dress-up clothes, a purse or a playhouse the best thing since apple pie.  I haven't been disappointed only amazed because this little girl is nothing but a girly play and make believer!  With this in mind our little crickets daddy spent a few weekends building his girl a home of her own complete with electricity, a dutch door and a porch to relax on.  It's a beautiful replica of our own home!

Last weekend Miss J hosted a little housewarming party to show off her daddy's hard work and to share her dream house to everyone.  Her grandma came with gifts in tow...

...her very own le Creuset cookware and "Jenny Air" stove top!  :)

Here is our cricket showing her other grandma the chalkboard inside and of course the hor d'oeurves!

Her first party was a huge success!  She loved showing everyone all the little things like her mailbox and the light switches that she is very serious about turning off and on.

Now our little cricket wants to do nothing but play in her house.  We've had many a fabulous meal already!  Oh and did I mention that she has to have a purse where ever she goes now.  

Every. Where. We. Go!
