The crisp air and beautiful colors in the trees really gets me excited for the holidays!
Its sad the year you no longer have a say in what your kids will wear for Halloween. This year Both kids insisted on what they wanted to be.
Egan wanted to be a cop complete with handcuffs and gun. I made him his shirt and pants with some fabric I found on sale, I already had the buttons and gold ribbon.The dollar store had a gun and badge, and wal-mart had a pair of handcuffs, I used a cereal box, electrical tape and foil for the his hat. Total for costume: $8 and a few hours of time.
Evelyn insisted on being a Fairy Princess Ballerina in Pink! So, thank you dollar store for the wings, crown, and wand. I used an old pink shirt she had and painted it up. The tutu was a costume already in her dress up box. I sewed together ballerina slippers that fit over her tennis shoes. With scraps and some ribbon on sale!
Total cost for Evelyn's Costume: $7 , 1 hr time.
We carved our pumpkins for family night. The kids had to clean them out themselves, draw on the face and mommy and daddy carved it out for them. This picture of Egan is just so precious!
Isn't funny how sometimes we look like the pumpkins we carve :)
My Darling Kids
They got to Trick or Treat twice this year once with our ward activity and once with Grandpa and Grandma Hill.
Now, on to November!
