I am all Halloween'd out and the trick-or-treat-ing hasn't even started!
In the last week we had a ward party, a friend party, and today was the costume parade at school:
The mustache really made the mountie costume.

Three different minor football teams were represented in Steven's school class.
Chloe wore the tiger costume that I bought for Jaclyn 10 years ago. I remember I really stressed myself out over the $20 price tag on this costume, but I justified the purchase by telling myself that all my children would wear it. As it turns out this costume cost me $5/kid - a number I would have been comfortable with even 10 years ago.
As for Jaclyn, she went to a Halloween party at a friend's house last night (today was a day off for high school). Her last minute costume decision was to buy a witch hat at the dollar store, wear her normal clothes, and call herself Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
don't you love to see the costumes used again?
ReplyDeletelove it.
the mountie costume is fantastic.
i am sure j's looks great but it is not showing on my computer?
I adore seeing costumes get used over and over. Eva wore a jack-o-lantern that I made for Max 11 years ago. Hooray! All that work was worth it!
ReplyDeleteThe Mountie costume is perfect.
I am glad Halloween is over.
Don't forget the year we borrowed the tiger to be 'Calvin and Hobbes'. That's $4 per kid, but I guess i owe you $ then.
ReplyDeleteLove the kids and their costumes!
ReplyDeleteYears ago for my first baby I slaved away making a little pumpkin vest for my little baby. All of the kids have worn it for their first halloween! It's fun to see each of them in the same costume!
I love that your daughter found away to dress up with out really haveing to dress up. Sabrina the teenage witch. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteI love it when costumes get recycled with other kids!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are Halloweened out, we only had a class party at school, no ward party or friend parties this year.
I love the mountie costume!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of organizing some kind of costume exchange. I can't justify spending the money on them either, especially when the prospects of the costumes being used again are not so good in my case.
I know I've said it before, but the mountie costume is the best thing ever.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a hand-me-down for your sister's family when your kids outgrow it?
Jaclyn is so funny, really it was a great idea! So glad that costume has worked so well for you! I think that the 20 dollars has paid off!
ReplyDeleteIt really does go on too long, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteTell Jaclyn what a clever girl she is.
Brynlee and I are loving Carmen's costume.
