This year for Halloween I asked E what she wanted to be and after some discussion she decided that she would be Tinker Bell, Duke would be Peter Pan, I would be Zarina the Pirate Fairy and Jakob would be a pirate. Since money is tight this year I figured this would be easy to try and keep on a budget. Aunt Janet sent E a Tinker Bell costume (THANK YOU!!!!!), I bought two green t-shirts for Duke from Savers on 50% off day and I had a dress that would work for Zarina, all I needed were wings. Daddy on the other hand expected me to rock out some sort of costume and I didn't so... he was Han Solo again this year. :)
Duke's Peter Pan costume took me 20 minutes. I didn't have a pattern so I just started cutting away and it came together perfectly. Making up something on the fly like that is always such a gamble but I was so pleased with the final outcome.
The hat totally needs work but for how often he was going to wear this it's worked.
Cutest Peter Pan EVER!
Then E just wanted to be Anna, which wasn't very cool. So she dressed up for a photo shoot. Seriously how cute is she?! She makes the perfect Tinker Bell temperament and all!
Here I am as Zarina.
Not too shabby considering I only bought the wings. :)
And there it is folks.... the ONLY picture I have of my two children looking at the camera, happy, and smiling! Now to try and recreate this for their fall photos. Bhahahah.
