Halloween ... Check (part 1one)

Costumes... Check.
Where? Where? Where? You ask was I this past week? Why could I only supply my faithful 7 with an off color joke and some floor sweepings?

Well, I am here to justify my absence.

You see... the Fairy Princess brigade threw up all over my kitchen table.



Below is concrete evidence supporting the theory that I like Ivy the best of all my children...




Being that I have never put this much effort into a Halloween costume before and that I would rather clean up after Thanksgiving dinner all by myself if it meant I could avoid using my sewing machine ... I would say that the theory is true. I like my little fairy the best.

Of course there were other costumes...

A rather reluctant flower,

(This little flower number caused a certain red head great grief, she spent most of the time pulling at it and complaining so she went without for the bulk of the Halloween festivities.)

A skinny Superman and a Pink Witch.

Or was that a Veterinarian?

Well, good thing I have a decently stocked dress-up box. Veterinarian, Witch.... whatever floats your boat! Even Kenneth threw together a costume from the dress-up box.

As for me... well... I put on some earrings and mascara. Very rare.

That little Ivy looked so beautiful! I'm so proud of you for using your skills!

Thanks for the party! It was great and you worked so hard to make it just perfect!

You remain, as ever, my hero.
