Flowers and Dresses

So I have a confession to make.  Once in a while I bribe my children so they will let me take their picture--and SMILE for me.  At the beach there were such fun boutiques with cute embroidered sundresses that cost less than $10.00 a piece.  So I let the girls pick out a dress. (Grace got a scarf like mine that can be worn as a dress, skirt, or shawl).  But of course when we were in the store, they saw these little flowers with clips that go in their hair and begged me for them.  They were only about $1.50, so I told them if they would let me take pictures of them in their flowers and dresses--and SMILE--I would get them.  Deal...sort of. 

Grace--the eldest and most cooperative was more than ready. 


And actually Emily was very cooperative too.


Wow, even together they were great.  They even hugged!


Sarah, on the other hand, was not so sure.  (She can be a bit moody about pictures.)


So Em gave her a little encouragement.


Then it was time to try all three.


Matt says having three girls is like herding cats. 

Two outta three aint bad.


Here kitty, kitty.


As good as it gets...pretty good I guess.
