Costumes 2013

I am actually 2 steps ahead and have the Halloween costumes finished for the year.  Well, except for the part about picking up some borrowed lacrosse gear so Buddy can be a Navy Lacrosse player, but he has a stick, a yard sale helmet and a jersey.

As for the girls, I assembled both their costumes for the year.  Munchkin requested a duck and so with some felt for a hat, some fleece for some feet and a feather boa pinned to a raincoat - A duck she shall be -



I think it looks a little unique, but she loves it and that is all that matters.

Now for Princess, she requested Candy Corn - So I found a tutorial online and followed it with a few exceptions.  (I used a T-shirt for the white and fleece for the rest. )   But then I had a realization, Candy corn have orange in the middle, not yellow.  Oops, I was going to pull it apart and start over, but she didn't seem to mind, so I just moved forward and made sure her hat and bag matched.
 A little photo-bombing by the little one behind the door.
 A great hat and a long warm fleece dress.
 The whole outfit, she LOVES it.

Buddy, so happy with his preliminary costume - simple and no sewing, he just needs some pads to fill out the jersey. 

 Scout is going with one from the dress-up box , ELMO
