LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN...

Costumes for the kids - DONE (almost)

Kate (not pictured) wants to be a kitty cat. I am not a big fan to store bought costumes but this I couldn't resist! Yes, another black cat... It needs a little something, I can't leave well enough alone... It arrived today and it is ADORABLE!

Logan wants to be "Chillsy". Chillsy is his tiny little Beanie Baby Bear and looks just like the Pottery Barn Kids costume. When he saw it he was thrilled. Honestly this wasn't my first choice for him but the costumes for toddler boys stink and this is probably the last time he will want a "cute" costume. It's on sale so we will check it out this weekend, if not he will be a "friendly, not scary ghost" (his words). I think he makes a great ghost, but Chillsy is cute too.

Emma, who when asked in September "What do you want to be for Halloween?" replied "a butterfly". She has stuck with it ever since and I found the cutest butterly/fairy costume on eBay.

How cute is this?! If you have little girls or know any little girls be sure to check out lilofthisand that on eBay for the cutest Fairy costumes, heabands, clips, and coming soon pettiskirts! Her prices are fair and her feedback is fantastic. Perfect for dress up and Halloween! I found black and white stripe leggings at Target and a black t-shirt for the top. This will be the first time that the girls have not had matching outfits, we will see how it goes over when they see each other...if one has to change because they are dirty the other does too...oh the joy of twin girls...

We have a busy weekend planned. Pumpkin patch tomorrow, decorate the outside of the house for Halloween, go to the mall to check out Logan's costume, and have everything in order for next weekends Halloween Party. If we succeed it will be the first time EVER that I am ready for an event ahead of time. For example, the night before my wedding I got an idea for elaborate programs and spent the night at the hotel binding books...


Have a great weekend!

Best wishes,
Tammy
