Costume Parties

We had a fabulous Halloween. I passionately refuse to buy store bought, cheaply made, but still very expensive costumes. I prefer to make mine or thrift one.

Brian was Darth Vader. I made his shirt with applique and sewed his cape.
He loved the new Light Saber best of all.
Katie was the cutest bumble bee ever!
I thrifted her costume and made the pom-poms for her slippers and hair.
Susan was a purple fairy. Easy to please we had most of her stuff already.

Gordon was Yoda to match Brian.
I made his costume and was very pleased he kept his hat on most of the night!
After we had finished all the costumes. A neighbor called and asked if our girls wanted to match the teenage girls and let them take the girls trick-or-treating. I knew my girls would love that, so we borrowed costumes from Mardell (hers are also hand crafted :)and the girls got to wear 2 costumes for 2 parties. Katie is Jasmine and Susan is Belle posing with our neighbor and Baby sitter Juliette.
