A play date with Mz. Caroline

With Halloween the night before and the holidays on the horizon...a play date was a must as Maggie relaxed on her first public school furlough day. We tossed the windows open on an incredibly beautiful fall, crisp day - let the sunshine in and invited Maggie's new friend from school, Mz Caroline, over for some good ole fashion fun. I dialed up my domestic self by making a delicious seasonal slow cooking stew, planting flowers, and cleaning out drawers. Maggie and Caroline did what they do best, giggled their way through all sorts of adventures in the backyard. From 'swimming' to climbing trees to sneaking in the playhouse with the Halloween bucket - they had a grand day. And you know what, so did I!!!



But of course, what better way to end a lovely play date but with some RAINBOW SPARKLY toes. They were glowing as they marched home. Ahhhh. to be 5.
