I spent a few days in thrift stores to find silly goofy hats and some outfits and then cleaned them up and brought them out for the kids to play with. There were about 8 different outfits and I forgot to bring the hats out until this morning when they were about to leave. 
I really had fun with the kids here and loved having HOlly and Holden (who is so darn adorable)....for the time that they were here. Other than some sharing issues (with the little residents of the house, ha)...all went well. The time went too fast but I was glad they had time for dress up play and goofiness.
I like these photos of Joel and Holly. 
I remember how fun this day was and I think I actually have photos from back then I never posted (like so many of my photos).
Over the next few days i'll be adding a side bar of favorite photos....and some other things i have planned, if I can find the time.
more childhood curiosity going on. She would be fun to follow for a day - just to see her exploring. 
i love this series of photos simply for the childhood delight in her face. 
I was up in the yard using a zoom and loved watching her in a contemplative mood. Soon after, she was chasing butterflies. This was about an hour before you showed up from your trip.
