Costume Confessional

I really phoned it in this year, as my sister pointed out. A hand me down and a store bought el cheapo costume. But what can I say? Aiden has his own mind now and he wanted Spiderman. I wasn't about to attempt to make it! So, Wal-mart? You betcha! Gray got the hand me down as per usual. I thought the costume was adorable, but that's just me. He was Mr. Incredible...but if you ask him, he was Jack-Jack. Otherwise, there was no convincing him to wear the thing.

Mabel is still young and maleable, so I turned to my BFF Martha Stewart for a little inspiration, and voila! A baby chick was born. I loved it! Er, everything but the feathers. By the end of the trunk or treat there were feathers everywhere. My house was covered in them as well. Mabel hated getting into the costume, which I must admit was pretty nightmarish, but she looked so stinkin' cute! I only made her wear it to the trunk or treat. She didn't go trick or treating, so it was all good.

Here's us trying to get a good pic of Mabel.
It wasn't happening.
And now trying to get one of the whole gang.

Wasn't happening.

And we had to get a shot of my friend, Cara's, kids (they were a little more accomodating). This is hilarious! Jayce is an illegal, and Evie is obviously border patrol. I couldn't stop laughing!
