We've played lots of dress-up lately...

They have been working on our patio for over a week. The seemingly simple-step process of having our enlarged patio area "overlayed with a concrete product to give it a unifying look" has been interrupted by rain, work, muddy dog prints, and a very picky customer (yes, that would be me). I know it's supposed to look like natural stone and will have variations, but I still have a look I am going for, and we are getting close. Then we chose to have them do the application on our front porch, so now we are limited to coming and going through the garage, and trying to keep the girls off of it has been hard! My girls are used to coming home and running out to play so we have had to get creative (and watch a bit more t.v. than I would like to admit to)... So arts and crafts, computer time, and... dress-up!

Last weekend we took pictures with my niece and brought some prop flowers along, which have since become daily play toys at our house (one of the best '99 cent toys' yet!). Then I found some more cute princess shoes since having one pair was not working out, and the other day they chased and tickled each other with the flowers for quite awhile... certainly bought me a little laundry time and they have done pretty well with me telling them princess clothes don't go outside, so as long as they are dressed up I can plan on keeping them inside!
