Toys, Toys, Toys

Dear Lord, deliver me from evil and PAH-LEEZE keep me off of eBay.

Vintage Rummy Cards









I'm pretty sure I had one of these when I was little.












I wanted the piano for Jasmine's dollhouse.



Dad built this dollhouse for Jasmine his last Christmas with us.
She asked me to put it up and keep it for her, so I have.
I'm going to add the piano to it.
She also got furniture for the house that year.
And there's little Alyssa sitting on the floor playing with her dollies.


Hugs,
from me and Ms. Wilma

I do not do E-Bay for that very reason. You really brought back a lot of memories with these finds.

Oh Dorothy, What great stuff! Love the rummy cards. eBay is addicting and I think I need an intervention! The dollhouse is so sweet & special for you. Wilma looks too cute! :-)

The dollhouse is precious - if it was mine, I'd have it put up in one of my rooms, too. And how much fun it is to keep adding to it!

Carol at Serendipity said...

I think a doll house may have to be in my future. I had to laugh about eBay. I shop without leaving the house while in my pajamas!

Happy Pink Saturday!
