The last leg of our trip we headed to NJ.
As an added special bonus on Friday we went into the city.
To the American Girl Store to celebrate the girls birthdays together. 
We took a Coach bus (with Larry as our Angel driver).
Had a personal shopper to help Kylie meet her perfect new friend to take home.
Ate lunch and Birthday Cake at the American Girl Cafe.
Then took the girls to finish up shopping (with their birthday money).
Bella got to pick out and outfit and a pet.
Kylie and Keira took their dolls, Elizabeth and Grace to the salon.
 Elizabeth and Grace got special summer "waterfall" hair do's and their ears pierced (yes the dolls got their ears pierced). 
It was such a special day.
The girls (including the Moms) will remember this forever. 




Bella's first time in the city.
She was a little overwhelmed but she carried her bag with her doll in it the whole way.



























The personal shopper (who was amazing and didn't accept tips) explained to the girls how to take care of their dolls. Not to just leave them on the floor because it will make them sad and the friction from the rugs will damage their hair. She explained a lot of other tips (no marker, no pens, no lipgloss or makeup, not even chap stick) to the girls how to keep their dolls happy and healthy.
Because we do not want them to need a trip to the American Girl Doll Hospital.
Yup they also have a hospital on level 3, which if your doll needs to go there she will get a hospital gown.






























































One of the cool things they give you with the salon package is a doll (synthetic) Hair Care Card.
Who knew you needed to spritz synthetic hair before you brush it (with a wire brush).









It was a very succe$$ful trip.
I may have even been able to sneak a Christmas gift or two in while my BFF kept them busy.

Bella did not get her pet on this trip.
They were sold out of the Kitty Cat she wanted.
She was offered to get a different pet but insisted on waiting for the kitty with the fishy.
So I ordered it and it will be in NC waiting for us when we get home.


A Quick stop at the NYC M&M's store on our way back to The Port Authority.


















Thank You Nana & Poppy for the Birthday Money.
Kylie got these two outfits.

Thank You Aunt Missy, Uncle Gary, Corinne & Kaitlyn for the American Girl Gift Card.
Kylie got the Swim Suit Set and her new pet "Amy".


Darrell treated us to Dairy Queen Ice Cream.























She even got up at 6am to give her friend sleepy hugs.


Thank You Decker Family!
