Halloween Fun

We just LOVE holidays here and Halloween is always a treat! We've done family costumes a few times and decided it would be fun again this year. After much discussion, the girls and I decided on an idea (poor hubby doesn't get to choose!). Jolie, Benoit and I would all be Minions and Belle would be Scarlett - she wanted something fancy. Luckily, I had recently ordered a red dress for her and thought it would be perfect with some long black gloves, black tights, etc. Well, she was not as excited about that idea. So 6 days before Halloween, she really was sad about her costume and I realized that she will only dress up and trick-or-treat with us for a few years before she's too 'cool' for it all. Off to Target we go!

She fell in love with a Snow Queen costume but it was $30 (really, ya'll!) and they didn't have her size. That night I found it on Target.com for $21 with free shipping and 5% off - hurray! I did pay the extra shipping to make sure it would arrive on time for her Harvest Party at her school Friday. But she was thrilled and counting down the days until it arrived.

Jolie was still proud of her costume choice and happy to be dressing up with Mom and Dad. Score for the parents! We had a great time walking with neighborhood friends and just being kids again ourselves. Now, we have too much candy and will be donating it soon. After picking out some of our faves, of course. :)
