Hiya MerMom..

While I come up with my next answer, I just want to say my daughter went through a phase a few years ago that she was crazy about Little House on the Prairie and made me rent season upon season so she could watch it on dvd. She even had me sew a Little House on the Prairie outfit for her Halloween costume. That was a great show.
