My little ghouls. :)
Britt wanted to be a mad scientist this year, so I whipped up a little lab coat for him (don't tell, but the pattern I used is from a 1969 girls' dress pattern that my mom and I found in my Grandma's old boxes of patterns). We had so much fun putting his costume together. I wasn't originally going to add the wild eye brows, but when he tried on the entire costume I thought it was missing a certain flair, so we went for it. ;)
Marnie wanted to be Medusa, so we got a few creepy looking snakes and attached them to a play tiara with some fishing line. I spray painted the whole thing gold, and voila! My mom happened upon some sparkly blue/green fabric in a clearance bin, and it worked out perfectly for her dress. I tied a gold rope around the waist, and she wore her favorite pair of sandals. Cute, yet scary. Just like the real Medusa. :)
I was a zombie chef. Easy peasy. :)
It's fun having so many grandparents close to us. Trick or treat!
I think our favorite part of Halloween this year was that no one (NOT A SINGLE ONE OF US) was sick! That hasn't happened since 2007. Hooray! The spell is broken! :)
