The other day I found some pretty wild flowers near our home. Emily has often talked about "going to pick flowers", so I made a mental note to bring the girls there some day. So - this weekend - we have a really low key weekend. Brian is on call - so we have to stick close to home - and besides the baseball game Friday night, we have NO PLANS for the whole weekend!!!! It is so nice! So, today we took the girls and cut some flowers. The pretty pink ones have lots of thorns - ughh. We arranged them in vases and let the girls pick which neighbors they wanted to bring them to. We only had enough for 3 vases. Then the girls made pictures out of some of the spare petals. It was very fun walking to the neighbors houses and giving them the gifts! The girls enjoyed it! The only problem? There were LOTS of little bugs that travelled into our house by the flowers - and Maddie DID NOT welcome these little creepy visitors. She was FREAKING OUT everytime she would see on. A little traumatic - but worth it.
Emily decided this one was her little umbrella. . .Arranging the flowers
