Costumes!

Okay, here's a sneak peek at the Halloween costumes! If you think they're cute now, wait til you see the kids IN them!


And I have to take a moment to brag on myself over these costumes! I am SO proud of the job I did! I didn't have a pattern! I just made it up by looking at the bumblebee costume we borrowed. And I've never sewn anything like this before! I've never sewn sleeves or hoods or pant legs or ZIPPERS!!! And I really think they look GOOD! I'm seriously SO SO proud of myself! The one on the right was the second one I did and it's much better than the first, especially the zipper!


And I know they aren't identical. I did that on purpose because the material I was using was different from the borrowed costume, so I knew my two were going to look different from it no matter how hard I tried to make them identical. So I just decided to make them all different from each other.

Looks like you did a great job! I am proud of the job you did, too. (I'm not good with zippers.) I am looking forward to seeing pictures of the kids in them. Happy Halloween!
Love ya! Mom

I am SOOO impressed! I CAN'T WAIT to see those sweet little faces peaking out of those outfits! Take an extra picture for me so I can hang it up at the office. Hope everyone is feeling better. Has anyone else gotten the rash? It never ends around your house... huh? :)
Kiss those sweet cheeks for me!
