The Family Madrigal!

 Hey Gang!

During the Amazon Prime sale, I purchased the Disney Encanto Ultimate Madrigal Family Dolls Gift Set, which includes 12 Dolls.  

I had all the other dolls except for Abuela, Julieta, and Agustin. Here is the family tree.  I plan to insert some new members.

During the Prime sale, the set was 59.99! That is just $5.00 per doll! I couldn't pass that up! Now I have the three that I didn't own.

I will have these dolls live in St. Malcomb most of the time, but will visit Johnston. Abuela and Juleeta will be turning out wonderful food for the guests of the Chateau.

Abuela looks like my mom!

Agusttin is the Concierge and head of staff at the Chateau at St. Malcolm.

I would love to give them articulated bodies. Hopefully, I can find some.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Disney Elena of Avalor Royal Castle of Avalor

 Hey Gang!

May being Disney month I wanted to show you my newest purchase for St. Malcolm.                   Disney Elena of Avalor Royal Castle of Avalor

I wanted this when I first saw it in person the final days of Toys R Us in this area.  When I think about

St. Malcolm, I see it as a Spanish style chateau. The set brings all they key elements I was looking for.

I will have to get Harold here to help with some of the additions.

Bell tower!

Table and chairs

I wanted to do more post from St. Malcolm and I purchased the Cali Girl Hawaiian Hotel for it a while back

Picking Up Stories Where We Left Off! Pt.1

OK, So I need to do some photo stories!  I can't just show you all the
things I have purchased.  Well...I can but I do need to do stories too! So
here is my first in  themed of photo stories.  I'll be bouncing back and
forth.  I hope it doesn't get too confusing.  I have to finish up some post
too! I still have my Star Wars to do and a few others.

Meanwhile In St. Malcolm!

So after getting off the phone with her grandson, Camille was doing her
morning walk.

Exercise is a good part of the healthy lifestyle of St. Malcolm.
It is coming close to the end of tourist season here in St. Malcolm.

As much as Camille loves this season, its' coming to a close is good. It will soon
be Camille's favorite time. Time with friends and family at the Chateau.

While walking along the beach she saw something disturbing a little ways
off.  It was an injured penguin.

She took out her phone to make a call.
Hello, Animal Rescue...This is  Camille Laurent at the Chateau in
St. Malcolm.

Operator: Hello Mrs. Laurent!  What is going on in St. Malcolm?  Is it
a turtle?

There are sometime sea turtles or seals that are in distress and need 
rescuing because of improper pleasuring boating in the area. Camille 
has been a great resource for the Animal Rescue Resource Center.  
She is their "eyes on the beach" in St. Malcolm.

Camille:   No... it is an injured penguin!

 Operator: WOW! You don't get penguins there!

Camille: Yes, I know!

Camille:  He seems pretty bad.  You need to send someone quickly!

Operator: OK!  We happen to have someone really good nearby.  I will radio
 him and have him helicopter out.  Is the penguin alone or with others?

Camille: I didn't think of that.  Let me look around.  I don't see others on the beach.
They could be in the ocean.  Let me see...

If you read this post anywhere other than

 I-Luv-Dolls@blogspot.com

It is a fake!!! Run!!

Operator:  Do you see any other penguins?

Camille: I don't see anything.....   

Camille:  No... wait.. I see something! .... Uh oh! That's not good!

Operator: What do you see?

Duh Duh...Duh Duh...Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh!

OK!  Thanks For Looking!

St. Malcolm Will Get An Upgrade!

St. Malcolm Will Get An Upgrade!

I am working on bringing St Malcolm to life.

This is Camille, the owner of the Villa enjoying breakfast
there seaside.

To that end, I purchased one of my Holy Grail items-
The Mattel Cali Girl Hawaiian Hotel Resort.
It completes the other topical sets I have that I plan to use in
St. Malcolm. I purchased it from Bex at philosophy_shop.
who has a customized set posted on thedollpage for sale.
I do plan to customized this set (Harold will have to make
his way there) but for now I would like to show you the set.

It is not the complete original set but it does have all the key
pieces that I loved. Bex at philosophy_shop included a few
additional items for me so that I could customize this one.


As you can see from the two pictures above, it has a table and
chair set with an umbrella. Bex include the suitcases with the
swimsuits in them. There are tropical drinks too!

suit one!

...and suit two!


The two things you need in any hotel...coffee and a phone.

The room has a door that opens! See the room number.

You can enjoy the view from the balcony.


Map of the hotel on the inside door.


Purse, cart and chair.


I got some sodas. There is a window with a view too!

Camille check each room before guest check in!

She has to call the desk. They need more towels in this room.
Thanks for looking.

Not Hardly A Snow Day!

Not Hardly A Snow Day!

It is not a snow day in St. Malcolm! It is a balmy 87 degrees

and the water is warm too! Camille takes her morning

constitutional on the beach. She has always been health

conscious. You have to be to look
this good at her age!

She is a lucky woman. She has had a career, a loving husband

and family, great friends, and the opportunity to buy her

childhood home! When she was a child, her father was

the groundskeeper for this villa. Now they own it!

After her walk, she has breakfast. This is the last month before

the height of the tourist season in St Malcolm. Her family will

come and go from now until Little Christmas. After that, her

friends will come to visit. Camille loves to entertain and is

the perfect hostess! But who would not come to a beautiful

island like this! Cindy has returned to work the

tourist season at the Villa.

Cindy: Good morning Mrs. Laurent, What would you like for

breakfast?

Camille: What do you have today?
Cindy: There oatmeal and cereal, pastries, fruit,

eggs, ham, bacon, fish, toast, ….What ever you want!

Camille: I think I have coffee, toast, a fried egg

and one of your wonderful breakfast smoothies!

Cindy: Coming right up!

Camille received a laptop from her grandkids so that she can

stay in touch. She is now using it for business too. Besides

the villa, she has been asked to co-write a book by a friend.

Camille: Cindy that smells great! I am so glad you could

return again this year!

Cindy: I love it here! You’re a great boss!

Camille to her self-
Oh look! It is an email from Stephanie.

The email reads:
Hi Grand,
We have a snow day today and school is closed!

LL, Tre’ and I played in the snow.

See you soon,

Love and Kisses!
Stephanie

There is a photo attachment. Camille is getting really good

with the computer. She love surprising her familly with what

she can now do!

Camille to herself-

Oh my! They look like they are having fun! I have to send

her some pictures too!

Hi Stephanie,
Guess who I met walking the beach!
Love and Kisses,

Grandma

President Obama made a Stop in St. Malcolm to speak with

the Prime Minster. Camille met him walking on the beach!
