I think I was very successful in bringing Sophia's purple butterfly/fairy/princess costume to reality this Halloween. When I decided to make costumes for the girls I couldn't have even hoped that they would turn out as well as they did. Sophia wore her costume all day. A girl has to accessorize though and Sophia needed to add a magic wand, some necklaces and bracelets to complete the look, and when we gave Sophia her "bat" loot bag she treated it like a purse and carried it around the house. And if you look close you can see that Layla is following in her sister's footsteps and is sporting a very fashionable pair of 3-D glasses.
The old joke about having to make Halloween costumes in Canada that fit over top of snowsuits held true this year. As Steve and Sophia carved the pumpkins we saw our first snowflake of the year. I have been busy working on the girls Halloween costumes for the past 2 weeks and all of my hard work paid off today seeing the girls parade around the house, and then the street in their "made to order" costumes.
I wasn't the only one busy today though, Steve and Sophia made some really great pumpkins for the porch.
Happy Halloween! And if anyone needs a little sugar fix we have a LOT of leftover candy!!
