Charming Cecile: September 2013

I love garage sales! Do you? Yesterday, which was Saturday, my neighborhood had a bunch of garage sales. It always fun to look for cool and unusual finds.

There was all sorts of things. Clothes, toys, books, furniture.....you name it!

I was looking through some clothes when I happened to glance at the toy table. Can you guess what I saw? An American Girl doll!

I was so excited. I had been wanting one, but they are so expensive.

Look at all that stuff I got! My arms were loaded with great deals on my walk home.

This is all that I got. American Girl doll Emily, some pajamas for her (so she isn't naked), cupcake slippers, sunglasses, and the Brave Emily book.

Do you ever go to garage sales? Have you found any really, cool things?

Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog Charming Cecile. It used to be Nadia's blog (first it was Charming Cherrie then Simply, Truly Nadia) but now it's mine.
Today I'm going to give you all a tour of my room. But first a little about me.
Name: Cecile Adele Rey
Age: 11
Favorite Animal: Owls and Penguins
Interests/Hobbies/Sports: Dance (I do ballet and hip-hop. Hip-hop is my favorite.), photography, acting, blogging, writing, soccer, owls, and penguins.

Here is an overview of my room. It is a little small, but I like it that way. It's nice and cozy!

First, is my desk. There is a pencil holder with two pencils and a pair of scissors, my laptop, my photo board with a picture of me, my best friend Ivy, her dog Coconut, and a postcard from my friend Marisol in Costa Rica, a little pine cone I found in the woods, Meet Samantha book, two barrettes, and a trophy I won in soccer.

Here is my chair and my computer bag that has a dragonfly on it.

Underneath my desk I store my backpack, camera, yarn and knitting needles, an UNO game, and a bunch of books.

On my bed I have a bunch of cute pillows that my mom made for me. (Isn't the owl pillow absolutely adorable?!?!?)

On the end of my bed are my stuffed animals. There is a bunny, bird, some sort of creature, and half of a heart pillow (my friend, Marisol, who lives in Costa Rica has the other half).
