Christmas Morning 1983
10 yrs old
My sister & I still have our Strawberry Shortcake Dolls. I have not let my kids play with my old ones yet.
My mother would make my sister & I nightgowns every year (see more of what she made us here) and put them on our bed on Christmas eve.

What great photos. It's always so fun to see old photos of us as children!
What precious memories!
I don't sew, but always got my boys new PJs that they could open on Christmas Even and wear to bed that night.
Morning Melanie! You and your sister were so cute! Your mom made the most adorable things...those dresses with the matching bonnets were just the best! You two looked like you stepped right out of Little House! ADORABLE!!!
Happy late Christmas! xoxo
I think my sister and my dolls are in mom's basement. I'll have to go find them!
Did you ever hear of Herself the Elf dolls? We had those also, but I think we're the only kids who did.
I love seeing old Christmas photos...brings back memories of my childhood! :)
I was a huge strawberry short cake fan too. Have a great day.
What great Christmas pictures!
I forgot all about how much we all loved Strawberry Short Cake!
My Grandma always made us pajamas's too! We always wore them Christmas Eve for our hanging our stockings pictures!
What sweet, sweet memories!! It's so great that you've held onto your dolls. I'm sure your kids will love those someday :) Hope you had a wonderfully blessed Christmas!
Happy Holidays Melanie,
Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos,what a sweet memories!
Love,

I always take pictures of the presents the girls get because I think it is so fun to be able to look back and remember what fun toys you received.
How fun that you still have your dolls.
These photos are SO clear!!! Brings back memories. I had an Odie dog like that. :)
I'm amazed that you still have your dolls. Love the furniture. Oh the memories your photos always provoke!
Isn't it crazy how the stuff we played with is considered cool once again? Kind of like 80s fashion and leg warmers...ack!
People would kill for that hair!!! Awesome wish I still had my easy bake oven(the original).
Sweet memories!
I have to say something about the hip plaid couch! I remember my aunt having one and being so jealous because we had a boring avocado green one.
I think that if I had little girls I would have to steal your mom's tradition of making pajamas each year. Well, if I would have to learn to sew first. Ha, who am I kidding. I would buy them and put them out. It is the thought that counts, right?
I am sooo off this week. I am sorry I am so late visiting. I LOVE the new header. Especially the picture of the two kids together. So sweet!
How cute!
