She's cool

Molly is starting to enjoy dressing up, and here's her latest "look." The red nose is from preschool, where they also gave the kids giant butterfly necklaces and clown hats to teach them their colors. Not sure how all of that worked together.

Molly likes to dig around in my drawers for dress-up items, and her ensembles usually include a few headbands, a bracelet and a purse or two. It goes well with her new penchant for exclaiming "I'm not crazy!" and galloping in circles around people she likes.

On an entirely different subject, I'm also including some pictures from Josh and Chris' camping trip Saturday night. They have joined Y-Guides, which is similar to Cub Scouts, which means this is the first of many father-son outings. For me, it means learning to sew patches on the very expensive leather vests that were sprung upon Chris at a recent dads' meeting. Chris and Josh are still working on their Indian names, another Y-Guides requirement, and we are still open to suggestions.

They didn't catch any fish this time, but Josh enjoyed learning to use his new fishing pole. They abandoned their campsite early Sunday morning because Chris had only brought one sleeping bag and it was 39 degrees.
