{inspired by a tent}

i broke out our tent today....and discovered that a tent is not a "quiet" toy around our house. nope. not a bit. the tent inspires raucous laughter, shrieking, and occasional rolling and tipping. the tent makes it sound a bit like we live in a zoo (as if it doesn't most of the time...who am i kidding?!). but it inspired lots of fun...lots of smiles...and some all three girls playing together time (which delighted jilly LOTS!). want a peek? inspired by the fact that the camera was out, i also clicked a few "self-portraits"....no make-up...still in my PJs...messy haired girls...and kate with nothin' but her undies on (after a milk mishap at lunch)...remembering the giggles...unedited.

"come on into our igloo...but don't worry, it isn't cold (as evidenced by kate in only undies!)!"


love the silliness of my libber-girl


and seriously...cute x a bazillion...but actually, the part that makes me laugh outloud is the background...kate, hair covering her eyes (always...no matter how many bazillion times i replace the barette--but i refuse to cut bang, thank you very much!), wearin' her undies



my crew...




okay...lovin' kate's expression...she is looking at her big sissy...love it!


life can't get much better than this!
