Looking Forward to 2016

 I usually do my looking forward at the end of December but it's only the beginning of January, so I'll share my plans for this year. As you already know I took a bit of a break from my girls and it was quite refreshing because now I return with a new creative fire and love for them.

So what's happening this year... As an wedding anniversary present from my hubby, my new to me retired GOTY doll should arrive sometime this week. When she arrives I will begin my ADAD 2016 photo series. Any guesses as to who she is? Just as a refresher, I've had... Kailey, Jess, Chrissa and still have Marisol, Sonali, Kanani, Saige, Isabelle and Grace. Oh, I'm not getting a repeat of any of the dolls I currently own or have owned.

On Wednesday, I picked up the mini Lea Clark doll from Target.
She only cost $9.99! Not sure if it's an error on Target's part because the back shows it at $24.99 but I couldn't pass up that deal on a brand new mini AG doll. I'm thinking about seeing if there are anymore and doing a giveaway for one. They're kinda hard to find so hopefully luck will be on my side. (^_^)

Next month, my plan is to visit AGPLA to handpick my 18" GOTY Lea Clark and purchase her Exclusive Collection which includes her accessories and Beach outfit plus get her ears pierced because her exclusive earrings are too adorable. A little later in the year I will get her PJs, Bahia Outfit and Mix & Match Swim Set. I think that will probably be all that I buy from her collection.... Oh wait, I need to still see her Spring/Summer release. ^^; So guess as far as dolls go, I only plan on bringing home the retired GOTY and GOTY 2016 Lea Clark. I must admit I am interested in seeing BF Melody Ellison though. 

Also, I'm FINALLY going to begin working on a permanent doll space instead of individual portable scenes. Another gift from my hubby for our anniversary was the Our Generation Gourmet Kitchen Set. 
I figure I'll make a 4 room house with a living room, kitchen and bedrooms for Saleen & Zoë. Saleen's room will include space for her fashion design and Zoë's personality/likes & dislikes are still a work in progress. ^^;   I have most of the stuff for Saleen's room already but gathering stuff for Zoë will be fun and it will help build her part of the story. 

Those are my plans for this year. Not a whole lot but I will definitely have fun sharing my adventures with you! Do you have any special plans for this year?
