Get Silly

041808_600.jpg
When was the last time you got silly? This weekend, get outside. Walk around the block with no shoes on. Pick flowers out of your neighbors' yards and wear them in your hair. Let your kids stay up past their bedtime. Build a fort on your couch with sheets and pillows. Make up silly lyrics to your favorite songs. Watch a scary movie with all of the lights off. Do cartwheels and spin in circles until you fall down.

And don't forget to take pictures.

Hee - love the pic and thanks for this reminder to be silly. Sometimes we get so caught up in the everyday that it is easy to forget to just...enjoy.
Have a great weekend!

Love it.... it is so cute and you look pretty even when you are silly! My favorite shots are almost always the silly unexpected ones. Here is one of my favorites form this week:

We love silly pictures at our house! Here's a recent favorite of me and my son being silly together in the front yard. I love it.

My girl has just learned the beauty of jumping. And I adore catching her mid air:
