Ghosts of Halloweens Past...

I was perusing through my old Halloween photos today and came across these gems.

It has been the only year I have been able to coordinate all three kiddo's costumes (the girls are just plain too opinionated sometimes. Don't know where they get that *wink*).

So, without further ado, I present to you:

Halloween 2007
**are you as excited as I am to scroll down?**


*you should be!*

Here's Miss Adi Nae as "Dorothy" (putting words in quotation marks make them important. Just ask Pipes).



This pic reminds me of the part in the part in the Merry Old Land of Oz song when Dorothy asks, "Can you even dye my eyes to match my gown?"


And here's Miss Pips as "Glenda the Good Witch".

No, she is not a princess (as EVERYONE asked that night).



This dress was the most difficult think I have ever sewn in my entire life.
And that includes when I made Piper's blessing dress.


And, finally last, but never least, Mr. Porter Pot as

The Scarecrow.



Doesn't he just melt your insides?

Or does he only have the affect on me?

Oh yes, I made all three costumes. And that may sound (and maybe even look) impressive. But please, please, PLEASE do not look to closely at the pics.

The impressiveness falls a bit when you see all of the mistakes.

I want to pinch that little scare crow's cheeks!

I think you do a great job every year at making their costumes! I remember this Halloween, back on the days when I lived on the base. Will you please come back? Halloween time just isn't the same without you guys :o(
