Spring has Sprung!!!

It is so nice to finally be able to get outside.  We've been keeping busy.  At home we have been doing yard work and getting the gardens ready for the planting season.  Our seedlings are growing nicely and we can't wait to get them in the ground.  The girls have been playing in their forts.  They have little "houses" in the yard.      They cook, clean, and even gather wood for their fire place.  It's amazing to watch them play and listen to how their imaginations work.  Most of their play is inspired by Little House on the Prairie.  We have been reading the American Girl books also, and I am starting to see those stories influencing their play.

Easter is such a nice way to step into springtime.

I found a simple pattern online for Pillowcase Dresses

The girls look adorable in them and they only took 10 minutes to make.

Perfect play dresses for summer.
