Halloween

This year our halloween theme was Mario Bothers...and YES!!! I made the Mario and Luigi costumes!!! I sewed the overalls and hats without a pattern...it was such a great accomplishment. Riley is Princess Peach, the princess that Mario and Luigi have to save. I was supposed to be the mushroom, but I could not find a white shower cap to make my cap. Trick or Treating was fun, and the kids got lots of chocolate. Thank you Ms. Terri for being our Halloween photographer for another year!!! This year, it was very windy while we went out trick-or-treating, so I drove the van so that the kids could jump in to warm up. Kevin walked from house to house with them, and it was really cute to hear the comments about the costumes. When we arrived home the kids sat and waited for trick-or-treaters to come to our house. Each kid had their very own bowl of candy to hand out...I just wanted to get rid of it...and they would give out a giant handful of candy too!!! We had a fun family night, it was worth the wait.
