Emily's Runaway Imagination

Another Bookclub Event!

The Goodsell family hosted this time and the book lined up perfectly with Valentine's day.

The kids made Valentines for a character in the book (like Emily did.)

They also dressed for the Hard Times Party which was in the book as well. 

I forgot to get a picture of all the outfits but Clairana and Bella REALLY enjoyed getting ready for the party.

Clairana cut out all sorts of holes in her outfit and then sewed in patches. 

Bella wore a dress up dress that she always begs to wear out but it is a mess.

Nephi and Coraline dressed up but it took some convincing they were not big on wearing anything 'ugly.'

As always so much fun! 

I made two sugar cream pies which were listed in the book as well. 

Some of our friends had never had it so it was a good introduction to the Hoosier dessert world.

Nephi wore one of Levi's shirts and Coraline decided not to brush her hair to play the part.
