She does not want or need a Ken doll, but if you purchase two Brookside Barbies and the optional Subaru wagon, you get a rainbow flag sticker free

Franklin Barbie- Is pregnant, drives a new Ford Excursion, and is perfect in every way. We don't know who Ken is because he's always awayhunting or in Japan on business. Franklin Barbie aspires to become Green HillsBarbie. Not cheap, but still very naive.

Nolensville Road Barbie- This Spanish-speaking Barbie comes with a1984 Toyota with expired temporary plates and three babies in the back, without car seats. This is the only Barbie willing to do manual labor. Ken comes in a meat-packer's uniform and is missing three fingers on his lefthand. Green cards are not yet available for Nolensville Barbie or Ken.

It looks like the gym membership has paid off. You look like your pre-pregnancy self. Man, you are so disciplined. :)
It looks like Easton had an awesome birthday. I can't wait to see you all. Madeline will have to show him how to hold up three fingers like an okay sign when people ask him hold old he is. Its lots of fun.

Lots of love,
