This morning, Lisa & Debbie showed me the Barbie logo glowing on the floor as you walked into the lobby of the hotel. Very cool!

So far I am having a blast & I don't want it to end...except I would most certainly run out of money LOL Can't wait until the main events!

So today I arrived at the Barbie Convention and I found it a little over whelming. I found myself in the lobby just wondering looking for people to connect with, when I happened upon two lovely ladies, Lisa & Debbie from CA.  They took me under their seasoned wings and invited me to eat with them. They are the nicest ladies ever!! So sweet!! After dinner they asked if I would  like to go room shopping...of course I would! 

My first room shop was Arnaldo's Restorations. He is the nicest guy!  He does wonders to TLC vintage dolls giving them new life. I even saw a few I liked! 

While room shopping, I ran into & finally (yay!) met Sheree & Jim, super nice! So far I am having a blast! Can't wait to see what tomorrow holds, besides my first day volunteering! LOL

Oh my gosh! I can't believe the Barbie Convention is almost here.  One week away!!  So excited!!

I have been working hard finishing my table gifts, gathering my donations, and preparing for it that I didn't have time to post stuff.  Let's see if I can make up for that! ;)

But first, I just wanted to ask everyone to keep my roommate in your thoughts and prayers.  She has been diagnosed with brain cancer and may not make it to the convention.  I am hoping that she will be able to, but just in case I have made her some Barbie gifts to send her.

Below are some of the table gifts I made. 

These are for Barbie of course! :)

It was so much fun creating them and the matching pairs. 
More to come soon...
