Cinderella & The Scarecrow

For Halloween this year BBug had a multitude of costumes to choose from so she chose to be a LadyBug (please don't ask about the polka dots on her face, she wanted "makeup") for trick-or-treating at school...


and Cinderella for Halloween night...



If you ask me she was the most gorgeous Cinderella ever...not that I'm biased!

BuddyRoe on the other hand didn't like a single costume that we tried on him at the stores. Everything was either too hot - hello, it was in the 90s here for Halloween! - or had a hood/mask which he was not in to! So at the last minute I decided to just cut up a pair of Hubby's boxers and sew patches on to a pair of BuddyRoe's overalls to make him a scarecrow...


I will offer one piece of advice - if you're going to make your small child a scarecrow, don't use real straw/hay! They don't appreciate it and it makes a huge mess!

Not that it really mattered in the long run...Buddy got hold of my can of coke and poured the entire thing down the front of his outfit before we even made it to the first house - so the rest of the night he just went as a half naked baby!
Our plans for the night didn't work out quite as expected, but Aunt A and Uncle M joined us and we had a great time anyway! And we definitely came home with more than enough goodies!


We hope you all had a Happy Halloween as well!
