Aloha Friday
It's time for Aloha Friday again! This meme was started by Kailani, and all you do is ask a question on your blog, and put your link on hers so that others will know you are playing along!
What was your favorite toy as a child, and did you save it?
Mine was my first Cabbage Patch Kid doll. I can't remember now whether I got her for my birthday or Christmas, but I do remember how happy I was. It was the year they became all the rage around here, and my mom almost didn't find one for me in time. She had brown hair, and a yellow dress, and the name she came with was Alexine Dody! Is that the craziest doll name ever? I called her Alex. My mom still has her in storage for me, in the hopes that I'll be able to pass her along to my little girl someday.
I really loved my Mr. T Big Wheels Bike.

You're supposed to ask your own question and post your answer to Kailani's as a comment on her blog. :P
I wanted a CPK soooo bad when I was little but it was at the height of the whole craze and my parents just didn't have the money. When they came back out again a couple years ago my mom bought me one. :D

Santa brought me a pogo-stick one Christmas, I jumped all around our neighborhood for what seemed like forever.
I loved my CP baby, I've since gotten one for each of my girls, and I do still have mine.

Mine were my 'My Friend Mandy' and 'My Friend Jenny' dolls. I still have them packed away in a trunk somewhere.

You know I wanted a CPK when I was a child but it wasn't available here. Funny, now that it is available here, I sometimes contemplate of buying one for myself. :)

I remember Cabbage Patch Kids!!! I had a girl one... but my favorite was my "premie" named Logan... he didn't have any hair... so that made him cuter somehow:)

I loved my Light Bright! My Dad used to work until late in the evening. We would make a picture and leave it for him to see when he got home.
