homemade costumes

I love my kids' creativity.   For Halloween, Boo wanted to be a Halloween girl, LE wanted to be a spider and the boys did not have a choice, R2 was Carl Fredricksen from UP!  Boo imagined her costume herself and created it from items she had in her wardrobe already.  LE explained her ideas to us and between Mommy, Gigi and Mimi we were able to create a pretty cute spider costume, well as cute as a spider can be.
With the help of PawPaw and the local resale shop, R2's costume turned out really cute too.  He was chosen as a finalist in a local costume contest, but did not make the final cut b/c of his age.
