DSL Girls Playing in Style.................

Nivens Apple Farm
Playdate Anyone?!?


The above picture is of Emily and Alivia in the playhouse at Niven's Apple Farm. Emily is the daughter of Michelle Patton from Dotted Deer Boutique (http://www.dotteddeerboutique.etsy.com/). Michelle and I met through Etsy and as shown in an earlier post "A Birthday Outfit for Emily". Friday was the first of hopefully many playdates for Alivia and Emily. You would have never known that Emily and Alivia had never officially met until that day. They played like they had known each other forever:) As you will see from the pictures below, they had a wonderful time following each other around, running, playing, looking at the animals, and just being girls. When I say being girls, I mean being girls:) It had been raining the night before, but we decided to let them play anyway. While they had a wonderful time and didn't let it slow them down for one minute, once we got to the car to go to lunch they were both wanting the dirt off of them. Typical ribbons and bows girls:) Of course Michelle and I had nothing to do with that all at, did we Michelle?

Below are a few pictures from the girls playing......
Alivia in typical Alivia form posing for the camera. I am so grateful for her loving to be photographed. (She is wearing Harvest from my shop)
Emily watching Alivia. It was amazing how well they took to each other. You would have thought they had known each other forever. Of course, Emily wasn't quit sure of all Alivia's energy to start with:)
You got to love those blue eyes and curls. The camera definatly loves Emily, and she's not to shy of it either!! Emily is going to be one of my new models. I am so excited. She is going to start helping with my winter wardrobe.

Alivia being Alivia. You gotta love that face. She is definatly Aunt Chrissy's heart.
The girls are quit sure that this is their new favorite thing to do. Alivia loves to jump and Michelle said that Emily had been trying to jump on the bed, so this was perfect for both of them. They jumped their little hearts out and their laughter echoed through the air. To me there is nothing better than the sound of a child having fun!!!

Two other great things happened on Friday as well. I was able to get my custom jewelry from Michelle. Which by the way is amazing. I couldn't pick a favorite if I had to. Michelle is very talented jewelry maker. You should definatly check out her shop on etsy. Not only is Michelle a talented jewelry maker, she is also an amazing photographer as you can see from the pictures above. So Alivia found a new friend and I found a new photographer (of course Michelle and I were already friends)!!!

Alivia and I had a great time Friday and we hope to do it again very soon. Stay tuned for my winter wardrobe Michelle is going to start taking the pictures a week from Monday!!!!

~~Thanks Michelle and Emily for a great day~~
