We did not have a lot of clothes either. I can remember making my own out of scraps from my mom's scrap basket, or tissues. I do remember that game! I Had forgotten all about it. I did not have one, but I remember seeing it on the telly and wanting one! xoxo<br /><br />What a nice Aunt you had Monique! Lucky you! I'd love to have even my bubble haired Barbie back! My brother and sister sold mine at a yard sale once when I was away. Grrr.... Oh along with my Barbie Case and all her clothers. I was really sad about that. xoxo<br /><br />I knew you were a doll lover Val, and also a wonderful maker of dolls. Your creations are just gorgeous. Welcome back from your holiday! Love you too! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-19136653502895716392015-09-28T06:01:50.842+01:002015-09-28T06:01:50.842+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Valerie H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01676002579226473400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-4287029039387321242015-09-28T06:01:50.313+01:002015-09-28T06:01:50.313+01:00Hi Marie!

They were our first ones then Ken and Alan followed soon after. Through the years we had Scooter, Skipper, Skipper's male friend (can't think of his name at the moment), PJ, Casey. I always LOVED dolls! I hope you're doing well. We are home from our trip. Home sweet home!!! Love your latest art work!

We played with those Barbies all of the time. Unlike my daughter who had a million Barbies and pieces of clothing, we had only a few and frequently wrapped handkerchiefs around them to make evening gowns. My sister eventually got a Midge doll, but we never had a Ken or anyone else. We used my brother's GI Joe for a boyfriend and those tiny plastic troll dolls that you got in a gumball machine, for babies. It was a big day when we got a set of wicker settee, chair and table for Barbie. We covered hardcover books with a sheet of kleenex for beds. We had so much fun! Probably more than my daughter did who had multiple dolls, clothes, furniture, etc. She never did get the giant house, though.<br />Hey! Does anyone out there remember the board game Mystery Date? You played the game somehow and earned a spin, and opened the door to see who your date would be. I can't imagine that game going over big now in these "liberated times," but we loved it. This would have been in the mid to late sixties.LauraChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17967327592468257519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-2640308699121375002015-09-27T13:04:40.666+01:002015-09-27T13:04:40.666+01:00My cousin had a whole wall of dolls when she was g...My cousin had a whole wall of dolls when she was growing up.

She's lived in the same home since forever. I didn't get to keep any of mine, but do have memories of my favorites. Hope your Sunday is a wonderful one. Company for dinner at my house today!
