Halloween!

I got a message from my mom saying she was waiting for Halloween pictures. Sorry these are late. I was having fun with photoshop.

Two days before Halloween it snowed. YUCK! It always snows at least once before Halloween and this year was looking really nice like it wasn't going to, but it did. The day after it snowed the weather was warmer and by Halloween it was like it never even happened. It was gorgeous!

We went to see Where the Wild Things Are a little bit ago and while Kurt, Drew and I LOVED it Brody could only stand the first 30 min. He especially loved when Max put on his costume and was chasing the dog around the house, the very beginning, and every time they howled. I don't know if Brody knew what he was doing but when he got dressed for Halloween he was literally a wild thing. Growling and being defiant, but oh so cute still!

I'm kind of a mean mom and wouldn't let Drew be lots of things that she had listed she wanted to be months ago. She was already Cinderella two years ago so I wouldn't let her be another princess or fairy this year. I don't know where she got the idea but she had suggested Strawberry Shortcake and I agreed. When I pulled up the picture to show her she looked at Strawberry with disgust. "Not THAT girl! The pretty one!" After some google searching I found out that there has been three different looking Strawberries since I grew up. All becoming... less homely? Well this one that she wanted to be was what I considered a princessy Strawberry Shortcake. You have to check out those tights though. I had to take a stretchy adult sized night shirt and sew it into those tights because we couldn't find any like that anywhere.

Drew was Strawberry Shortcake

I pretty much had no idea what I was going to be until the day before Halloween. We went to Walmart and grabbed a bunch of fun things to glue on and fabric to sew a skirt, into what became this. My main point was to stay modest and warm.

I have to save the best for last. Kurt didn't think about what he was going to be for Halloween until the night before. Yes, 24 hours till trick or treat time! He found horns at a local store and knew what he had to do to be done in time. From the minute he woke up to the time we were heading out the door he and I were working on his costume. I think Kurt forgets Halloween is for the kids and not for him. Then again you only get one time a year to live out your fantasy right?

Kurt was the guy from Fable
