Halloween 2012

Our friends hosted a "Super Hero" themed Halloween party for adults Nathan is testing out part of Scott's costume.
 I made a cake and cupcakes to go with the theme.


After some gold, silver, and red duct tape, cardboard, gold spray paint and a few clothing items from the thrift store we came up with She-Ra and He-man costumes.  I try to spend as little as possible on our costumes so it was a splurge to buy the $4.99 boots from GoodWill.  It turned out to be a great investment because when Lydia tried on my boots for fun, she found a $50 bill in the toe!!  It was getting in her way so she took it out and threw it on the kitchen floor.  I found it awhile later luckily before a little toddler got a hold of it.  As an added bonus, we won the costume contest at the party! 



 Lydia wanted to be Rapunzel again which made it easy for me.  David, 'loves Ben 10 more than anyone in the whole world' so his was easy too.  

 Our little knight found a sword more of his size.

"this face"

Hopefully I will have time to post about Halloween soon but I had to share a funny conversation I walked in on this morning...

David to Lydia:  "This face?! Don't laugh at my face, my mother gave me this face!"
