I usually love, LOVE Halloween. Even this year, I was so excited...the picking and choosing costumes, fabrics, and watching them come together. The school activities, and candy everywhere. What's not to love?

This year, my gouls were completley impossible. Tantrums, fits, screaming, All Day Long. (I don't remember melting down so much on Halloween. Throwing up? yes.) They honestly couldn't pull it together until we actually arrived at the party we were going to for trick or treat...Let's just say, Medusa had a headache like you read about...And then as soon as we got there, the flip switched, and the smiles came out. No pics of all of us together though. I am beginning to think that a Halloween family picture is as elusive as the loch ness monster. Just saying.


Well, now onto the rest of documenting the holiday that shan't be named....


The cast of characters:



Perseus. He made his own sickel...




A very ornery medusa.



Vampire Girl..(Transylvania Princess???) Did not get a picture with her entire costume. Imagine a red and black cape to complete her very scary costume. My favorite.



A very, very cute orange fox. Imagine a big, big bushy tail. Too big, apparently.
Seriously, this was my favorite...



A very sweet monarch butterfly. My favorite costume...she loves this, and it continues to be a hit...





The End



P.S.

Lesson learned:

It's

All

About

The

Kids!!!



Otherwise, we would all be Jehovah's Witness' next year.
