The Princess and the Frog.

Goodmoring. What a gorgeous weekend! It was 61 degrees in Woodstock so that meant teaching the kids how to enjoy the outdoors (seriously, Isabel had to be coaxed outside all weekend and each time she said "Can I watch TV" I felt like I had failed her as a Mother). Aren't kids automatically programmed to know how to play outside?

Standing in the backyard looking up at the house, it was great to get a new perspective on the house. For five months now we have been shuttered indoors,  so having access to the outdoors really expands the potential for fun...think...gardens, swimming pools (kid size for now), and barbeques! While none of it happened over the weekend,  we did clean up the yard (from lots of junk), find some dead (and alive) frogs in the coy pond, and hit up a drum circle (which wasn't in our yard but just down the road)(hey we do live in Woodstock...Bro)!

 A princess dress and heels...the perfect attire to play outside ...don't you think? 

Since she was a 'Princess' I told Isabel that if she kissed this frog (albeit dead) maybe a price would appear.  She wasn't having it.

Valentino clearing out the clutter...doesn't he look thrilled?

Someone else's trash is someone else's treasure...isn't that how the saying goes?

Princess and the junkyard!
