Simply Sunday: Handsome Pants
When your children want to dress up, let them dress up!
We were getting ready to go out to dinner with some friends yesterday and Andrew decided he wanted to wear his "Handsome Clothes".

It was a beautiful day in Calgary and we decided to go for a walk at Prince's Island Park.

I took advantage of it and had the kids pose nicely. I also made a few of their visiting grandparents too. It seems that we're going to have an early (and short) autumn season this year. It … Continue Reading ››
