Halloween

Well - this is an extremely overdue post - especially since Christmas is knocking at our door!! Oops.

This year for Halloween I went on Pinterest on my phone - typed in 'Halloween Tutu Costumes.'  I scrolled for quite a while and saw many adorable ones - many that I'd have chosen, BUT I decided to let them look.  So they each had a turn with my phone scrolling (yes it is also crazy that a 2 and 4 year old know how to scroll so well) and Maree stumbles upon Maleficent.  All of these cute princessy costumes and she picks the Villian - again lol. (Last year she was a witch). Once she saw it she had her heart set completely on it so I decided I could make that.

Ellie, also took my phone, and I was SO SURE she would pick a minion tutu dress… but no, she picked Sully from Monster's Inc.  And honestly, I felt like it couldn't be more perfect for her lol.  Both costumes only took about 30 minutes to make… but the horns definitely took longer.  I had to cut them out of plant foam, modge podge glitter on to them, and spray with a sealant.  I love crafting though, so it was fun to come up with it all.






Then came the school Haloween party - Maree LOVED showing off her costume to her friends.. and they did a parade of all the students in their costumes and I could tell the girls felt pretty special b/c no one else was Maleficent or Sully.  Nana and Papa came to school to see them too :)
