Halloween Costumes


Do you know me? I hate Halloween...it hasn't been my thing since about fifth grade. Dressing up made me super self-conscious. Of course, my children adore it...well, sorta.
Katie chose a basic beautiful pink princess-y ballgown.
Abby Hollywood is actually Fancy Nancy.
They like and wear their costumes.
Owen wanted to be Mario. Well, how 'bout that. Sounds like work for mom. So I shopped and snipped and glued and stitched and primed and painted. When it came time to dress, he griped and fussed and tugged and smeared. It is so rewarding to be a parent.
This is the kids dressed for party #1. We couldn't wake Katie up to go to party #2 and Owen refused to wear his overalls and nose. Can't wait until the school celebration to see what drama ensues.
