HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I made the girls costumes, and they were thrilled when the day finally came.

Sophia was Dorothy, including the obligatory ruby red shoes. She actually didn't want to wear her costume to her Halloween lantern walk at school, as she was convinced her shoes and costume would be ruined in the rain. So she wore her tattered Sleeping Beauty costume to every Halloween party or event that happened before the actual day. So, her costume was perfect for her big Dorothy "reveal"
So funny, and so Sophie.

Avery was a fairy. She loved her poofy skirt, until she put it on. then it was "i'm so itchy..." repeated a gabazillion times.

Lyla was a butterfly. She took her transformation seriously. A note: don't touch the wings of a butterfly unless you are invited to. Otherwise the extremely loud screeching butterfly comes out to play. SCARY

Toby was a Green Bay Packer fan. Huge leap, I know. I was a gypsy. Then I was sick and threw up on the way to trick or treating. so we turned around and I ralphed the night away while the kids filled their bags with candy.

Oh well, Halloween really is about the kids, even though I love it

I love Fisher's face, and Avery checking him out

I wanted to make sure to take great pictures this year as the last two years have not really worked out on that front. Toby assured me he would take a lot.
Um, he had a little problems with the camera.
Thanks honey, for trying!

Great costumes - homemade is so much better! You did a fantastic job. Sorry your night was not so fun. If it is any consolation, I was sick all day and night too...but for different reasons.
