Last weekend, the girls and I (and Joe too, even during the Cowboys game) made a center piece for our dining room table. We had a great time, although it was terribly time consuming! Elle stuck with it for a long time and Emme ended up just playing with the beans!
Step 1: Gather sticks in the yard and paint them


Trace circles on brown paper bags

Use a wine cork to make dots as your leafs on trees

Fill the vase with beans!

Joe made these cute creatures out of corks

Final Place mats

Final Centerpiece

Did you know we painted our red room blue?

Another look! Next on the list -- new chandelier!
We had family pictures on Saturday.. and the girls were so silly.

Silly

Silly

Oh my... so silly

Elle joining in on the silliness
A really really early save the date notice.... for those that read my blog that have girls. I think for Elle's 5th Birthday party (yes, next spring) I am going to take her girl friends and their moms to see Cinderella at Casa Manana. So, if you have even bought your 2010 calendar yet, put April 3 @ 2pm on your calendar ;)) Plans may change, but Elle said that would be something she would want to do.... you can go out to casamanana.org/cinderella.htm
