My grandma also had these toys at her house, one is a bath toy the fisher price 3 men in a tub, the butcher the baker and the candlestick maker. The coolest toy {also at grandma's} is this fisher price movie reel, there are whole bunch of movies you can buy and it's battery free! Even though it's vintage I still want one for my kids! I've been searching on ebay and I'm sure I will make the purchase.

Here is a photo of the fisher price toys that we used to play with at grandmas house, I am now 28 years old and these toys have lasted through grandma's children, and many many grand children. They are amazing! I will always remember how fascinated I was with it all. Fisher Price wins again! Great durable toys :)

BARBIE!

2009-11-10T08:52:00.000-08:00

This is my barbies from my childhood. I didn't have a lot of them but I enjoyed the ones I DID have. I remember getting these clothes in and barbies in the mail from my grandparents in canada. A lot of these clothes, most of them were made by my grandma. I have to laugh because I remember getting "gem" dolls with the colored hot pink hair from the 80's, however they did not hold up. I think I may have cut gems hair. here is what I have left, which is pretty much all of it. I went through and sewed the holes and then washed all the clothes and stored them back in the box. I wish I had taken pics of them all cleaned up, but oh well.

my little pony

2009-07-11T21:08:00.000-07:00

I used to have this doll house as a kid. I loved it and playes many many hours with it. I also have a purple pony, not sure where it is at the moment. I think It's still in storage.

2008-12-27T11:27:00.000-08:00

I made this Christmas ornament when I was a little girl. There is another one like It that I made of hard plastic. I'm not sure where it went too. Either I have it in a box instorage that is in SLC or my mother still has it somewhere, if it didn't get stolen along with some other Items.

2008-12-23T16:21:00.000-08:00

Aunt Julie Bartlett Made these little sign hooks one year for christmas. 1986 I was 5 years old. I can't believe I've kept it all these years!! They had our name on it then mine had a bear. Julie aka JUJU, made them for Crystal and I and for her 2 boys Clayton and wesley. { if wes was born yet I cannot remember} Crystals was blue with a little girl on it that resembled Hollie Hobbie.

stuffed toys

2008-12-23T15:56:00.000-08:00

The white seal has always been so cute to me and also came from my Grandma Bartlett.

The monkey sucks it's thumb I loved that.

The little brown bear my sister and I had matching ones, I was very small when we got those and I do not remember how old we were when we got them or whom from.

Remember the home-made cabbage patch dolls? My Grandma Bartlett made them one year and It's the closest thing to a cabbage patch I ever got! I believe this particular doll belonged to my aunt Sandi.
My Grandma Bartlett used to own a flower shop in logan utah when I was a kid it was called "Country Bouquet" I used to get a lot of really cute bears and stuffed toys for birthdays and christmas. {The Last 4 bears were from my grandma Bartlett} The white teddy bear with the pink bow around it's neck was a great find for my mom she knew how much I loved the "snuggles" bear off the commercials for snuggles fabric softener and this bear resembled that one so much. I was very exited that christmas to get him.

The other 2 cream bears were from the flower shop. The other fluffy tan bear my sister and I also got for christmas one year from Grandma Bartlett, Crystals is more of a butterscotch color. Grandma had crochet'd all the grandkids blankets that year and gave us a bear. I still have the blanket.

2008-12-23T15:27:00.000-08:00

I Loved tiny things as a kid, I had some doll ouse furniture wich makes me laugh to see now. It's so 80's style.

I had this tiny miniatures collectable set of an old fachioned kitchen.
This tiny stuffed puppy, I'm not sure what it goes too or if it was a significant toy of any kind.

This little tiny sewing machine, I think my mom and I found it at an antique store when i was younger.

Then there is this good old "my littlest pet shop" It is little hampsters. one sorta rins in the wheel and the other sits up and drinks from it's toy water bottle.

2008-12-23T15:01:00.000-08:00

The little red phone, I remember was the first toy I ever bought with my own money on my birthday. We got it at King's.

The red bag I also got From my grandma Bartlett. My older sister had one too that was a little bit different. We used them as our suit cases to go see grandma. It says on it " my going to Grandma's bag"

The little baby is only a few inched high and made of plastic, you could collect a lot of different ones out of the .25 cent machine.

The toy with a little girl on it was a favorite toy of mine I got form My grandma Bartlett for a birthday. You could scroll through all 3 levels and change the heads and outfits. It would light up and hold a peice of paper over it so that you could trace the outfits.

2008-12-23T14:52:00.000-08:00

The 5 little babies is a toy called "quints" they are only a couple inches big each.
I got this "Popple" also a popular 80's toy. It was from santa one christmas. It still looks good as new, as do al my stuffed toys. I took really great care of my toys as a kid.
We all remember the wonderful "Pound Puppies" Who didn't have one of these?

Then there is a little pink monkey, I will forever call CHEE CHEE, because that was what it was. I guess there was a cartoon or something? I LOVED this toy as a kid. anything tiny i loved, and it was pink. I still think its a super cute toy! The baby beside it is a little baby I got and have kept. I loved dolls with extra cute faces.

Trolls! I loved my baby Troll, when I bought it they only had the little boy ones. On the back of its PJ's there is a bummy flap and if you open it you can see him bum it's so funny!

The 2 tiny babies were a dollar store toy that I fell in love with. The faces on these tiny babies are too cute! They are Twins and one of he cutest toys I ever had!
