Halloween this year

Well, while I said I was not going to back track 7 months, I am going to post few things that have happened as of late!  Halloween was a few weeks ago…we had the perfect weather for Halloween! IE, not coats, under layers, etc!  School was out the following day which made it so much easier as we didn't have to rush everyone to bed for a 'school night'.
 Alice decided what she wanted to be first *not surprising*….she picked out the 'pop star' costume with accessories out of the Chasing Firelies catalogue!  Despite having to cut a foot off of the dress (she is a shrimp still), she was ready to go dive style!  At the end of the night, she said (so excited and seriously)…'Mom! Someone actually asked me for my autograph!'

Lucy then decided to be Taylor Swift! This is very fitting for her! We decided to go with one of the looks from her recent RED tour's concert that she saw twice! Despite missing the blonde hair and guitar which we thought would be a bit cumbersome- she was great!

 

Next but not least was our little Evelyn! We had several choices for her….an old orange cat costume which we decided would be too hot……she loves abby cadabby from sesame street so I got all the parts to that but the 'dress rehearsals' soon proved that it was not going to stay on very long so she wore that to preschool for the halloween parade.  She LOVES to make a pig snorting sound so I found this piggy costume at a local consignment shop for $9!!!! It was perfect for her!

All in all, Halloween was fun success this year! Everyone got a lot of candy and was tuckered out when we got home! Evelyn really got in the 'trick or treating' part which surprised me! She went up to every door her sisters did and said 'Peez' aka 'Please!"
