Playing dress-up

One of the things I am most excited about when the girls get older is playing dress up! My mom used to have these long skirts (I called them broom-stick skirts...) and I loved putting them on and twirling around and my grandma also had all of her square dancing outfits with the petticoats and I would try those on everytime we went to her house:) So, I can't wait for Marissa and Allie to want to dress-up...well, I got my first taste of dress-up this past weekend as Russell and I were tackling the mess in our sunroom-we were unpacking and getting rid of things, and there was stuff laying everywhere, including some of my old purses and some headbands-well, next thing I know, I hear Russell say very quietly-"JJ, go get the camera, look at Marissa" So I got the camera and here she is, very proud of the look she put together!

What I love the most about this is how she knew where the headband went and how to carry the purses...Russell asked me how she knew how to do that and I told him I guess it's just a girl thing:)

And here is another shot of her playing dress-up in her daddy's work boots:)

And lastly-here a couple of pictures of me playing dress-up with Marissa and her new boots and sweater-dresses. So cute:)
