Girls weekend!

Grandma Griz took AP last weekend which worked out well because it was the annual Brownies Mother/Daughter dinner. Abby joined in the fun too. This year the theme was "holidays." Margaret's troop selected Easter and we had to dress the part. It was actually alot of work because I had to dig out mine and the girl's Easter dresses, shoes, etc. from storage...plus Abby barely fit into hers!
She got a kick out of Margaret's Easter bonnet and her purse, so I let her wear her white snow hat, which she thought made her look just like "Sissy." They looked very cute together and Abby sat with the big girls and joined in the Easter feast and craft time too.
We attempted to decorate cupcakes like Easter bunnies- but they came out looking evil instead. We sat them in a plate of cotton candy and Abby had her fill of sweets. She was still up running around at 10 pm!
On Sunday they enjoyed drawing on the box and feeding the cats (which is normally AP's job). Abby has also developed a friendship with the neighborhood horses and we walk to the neighbor's barn and pasture almost daily for her to feed "Fritsy" and the "babies." Her favorite song to sing right now is "B-I-N-G-O." It is so funny.
