Halloween 2009

Aliyah wanted to be a butterfly and Kailee wanted to be a lady bug this year for Halloween. A little while ago I saw some cute costumes in the Pottery Barn catalog and was shocked to see the price of them. The costumes cost $69. So, I thought to myself and figured I could make the same costumes but cheaper. I went to the fabric store, bought some satin and tulle fabric, came home and sewed them their skirts. I made their bows and made their antennas. Over all, I think the costumes turned out wondeful and it cost me less than $10 to make their costumes. Shawn was a cute little monkey, it was the same costume one of girls wore last year. It fit him perfectly and he loved the costume. The kids had so much fun at the church festival playing games and getting all that candy, we also went to another festival and later went trick or treating. Needless to say, the kids are in candy heaven. Enjoy the pics.
