Our Prairie Girls

We took the girls to go camping and apple picking in the mountains last weekend, and we had a wonderful time. O(5) insisted on wearing her "old time" clothes because she said the only reason we came on this trip was to be Laura (Ingalls) :) O planned to be Rose Wilder since Rose grew up on an apple orchard (we spent the summer reading the 7 books of the Rose Years In the Land of the Big Red Apple (Little House), which is the primary reason I wanted to make this trip), but E(2) insisted that she was "Baby Carrie." There was no changing her mind, so O was "Laura," E was "Baby Carrie," and Elliott and I were "Ma and Pa." (although, we didn't dress up for our parts!)

This trip also coincided with E's "A" week, which I'll be posting about later :)
