My Little Prairie Twin

Last year when I went to the LHOP reunion in Keystone, my cousin made me a prairie dress. This picture was taken this year when I went to visit my friend Beth Ingalls and then went to Laurapalooza.

My cousin had leftover material so she made a little dress for my niece and I gave it to her for her birthday last month when she turned 2. (How the heck did she get to be 2 already, I'll NEVER know!!)

This weekend we fianlly got a chance to get our pictures taken together. She was thrilled to be wearing a dress like Auntie Marily and I was thrilled to have a little prairie twin.

I LOVE wearing this dress. And I LOVe my little twin.

Aw, how sweet. She's so cute, Marilyn. I can barely sew on a button, never mind make a dress. Your cousin is so talented.

Thanks everyone. It was really fun dressing up for the camera. Lily knows to say "Cheese" whenever we pull them out. She is going to be Laura for halloween this year. She kinda looks like Laura in Big Woods.

Cheryl, my cousin made my dress, pinafore and bonnet in less than 10 hours. We got up, bought the material and started before lunch. She had it all done by 10pm.
