Sarah's playful side

Sarah is really starting to love active play.  Here she is playing hide and seek with Emma:

 Here she is with her canoe (the dog dish) and paddle.  She even let sister take a ride (though Sarah was very eager to bail out):

Here she is performing her new obsession, magic tricks:

Even Sarah is starting to use her imagination.  She loves to play doctor with Emma:
