A Surprise Package!

Hey everyone! You'll never guess what happened today...I got a package in the mail!
                     I was out on the porch enjoying the nice weather when the mail came.

I waved at the mailman as he walked over and handed me a ginormous package.
"There you go! I wonder what it could be!" He said to me with a large smile on his face. "Hopefully something exciting!" He said as he walked back to his mail truck. Our mailman is super-duper nice.

It looked like the package was addressed to me! I asked Skye if she had been expecting a package. 
"OOH, yay! It's here! Dani, that's for you. You can open it," She told me.


I looked at who it was from. The address said New York! It was a package from my mom!

I opened it up to see the box was chock full of tissue paper. "It must be a present!" I thought excitedly.

I tore off the rich purple tissue paper, which revealed more tissue paper; this time a light, minty green color. "Mom packed it with my two favorite colors," I sighed. "She still knows me so well."

I pulled away more of the purple tissue paper and saw the card.

On the front, it said "Happy Birthday", also in purple and green. I read the card thoroughly.

Once I was done reading the card, I pulled the huge green package out.

Mom tied it with a pretty bow! It was so cute, I almost didn't want to open it!

I pulled the ribbon off...

...And tore off the green paper.

I saw the top of the package...I wonder what it could be?

HOLY GUACAMOLE! IT WAS AN AMERICAN GIRL DOLL!

I gently took the top of the box off. "Oh. My. GOSH she is so cute!" I exclaimed.

I hugged her to me. Mom picked out a perfect present for me!

Here's a close-up. This photo of her is pretty cute, but she is even cuter in person! 

Now, all I have to do is think of a name for her...she looks like a 
Kerry to me, but what do you guys think? What names do you think suit her? I love her so much! Do you guys have any American Girl dolls? What do they look like? What are their names?

This has been Dani, dabbling in opening packages from mothers. Over and out!

    Your doll is super cute!! :D I agree with Saoirse that Kerry is a pretty name, but for some reason, I'm thinking Madilyn... Is she your first doll?

    My friend Xia has a rather... um... unnatural obsession with collecting American Girl dolls. As for me, I only have a Rebecca doll, but she is pretty creepy!
