We had a beautiful day outside!

Suki heard we were going outside and immediately ran to put on her glittery hat. You know, in case of inclement weather.

Grace received three pinwheels from her friend Sean and shared them with her sisters when we went outdoors.

Suki loved her pinwheel.

So did Kate!

Grace in the grass.

Those cheeks! This picture puts me in the mind of this one from when Kate was just two days old.

The tremendous flock of geese that circled our house.

This pictures perfectly sums things up between Suki and Grace. Suki thinks it is hilarious to torment her sister by swiping things, just to see Grace's reaction. There, she took one of the many branches that were lying around and Grace thought was hers. Grace gives chase as Suki cackles.

Then Grace tows Suki around, calling her sister her "little puppy."

Grace was sitting with Kate and Suki decided to try to replace Kate's hat.

A kiss from Grace, Suki looks on.

A hug from Grace starts Kate toppling but that does not deter Suki, who readies the headpiece.

Kate tries to figure out what Grace is on about and how she is going to right herself. Suki becomes mighty absorbed with the hat.

Suki seizes her moment as Kate finally topples. Grace helps the process by gently tugging a leg.

Kate tries to escape the ministrations of her sisters, she only has so much patience.

Grace gives one last tackling hug and then everyone goes back to their business.

I told Grace she looked like the Lady of the Woods with all of those leaves in her hair. She stands in front of the pile of branches the girls helpfully collected from around the yard.
