Dentists, Cowboys, and Butterflies

My kids have always loved dramatic play. It's their favorite type of play. We have a big trunk full of costumes. Some days they are super heroes, other days they might pretend to be knights or soldiers. But most of all ,they love playing cowboys. They each have cowboy boots, vests, hats, and all the other accessories that any cowboy would need. Tonight, however, they added a new twist to the usual cowboy play. Bug dressed up as (in their words) "half dentist and half cowboy", and Boo was a "butterfly cowboy". I, of course, was the princess. The evil cowboy dentist captured me and my hero the butterfly cowboy had to fly in and save me.

A little strange, but you gotta love their creativity!
