Re: Halloween - Dressed up as?

[Bookworm]

All my kids wore their costumes today, as I asked the parents to dress them up. I had a monarch butterfly, two tigers (the twins), my son was a monster and my daughter was an owl. I took pictures that I will email the parents later on. They were all so cute!

We had a hunter, a pumpkin, 2 princesses, a wizard, Sponge Bob and a vampiress.

I didn't dress up....I am not a fan of Halloween

We had a wonderful Halloween fun filled day!

My crew consisted of one bumblebee, one spiderman, one Bob the Builder, one mouse and one dragon. I was a witch. And by witch costume, I mean one witch hat on top of my head

I went "all" out on myself!
Witch hat and dress and big dark eyes (lots of makeup) with red lips! the kids loved it lol

And with the house I added a few extra scary decorations and our fog machine (also a fan) plus all their treat bags ready! I LOVE Halloween! (And Christmas...watch out for that decor....my DH is the "Tim Taylor" of outdoor decor) LOL

Great Night overall....weather was mild and only rained for 2min but lots of action, all candy gone, DD got a full to the rim bag!

Good Night everyone!

gcj. No didn't go so far as to ask them to dress the kids, usually don't have to, parents are always so eager to show how cute the kiddos are. I am guilty though my house is decorated to the tee with the halloween decorations as every year, but do get overwhelmed most often this year, my daughter has her birthday party every year at halloween time and the party itself is such a drain for me (fun but a drain) it's a costume party with the games and decorations outside and in. We ussualy do a small get together for the kids, my daycare is so young this year, maybe the parents didn't want the costumes to get messed up before the big night? who knows, had a good day, just not as festive as many past years. Glad everyone had a happy halloween, today will be taking all decorations down, and on to thanksgiving.

We had a pretty good day. Yesterday was the dc party. Kids brought costumes, I put them on for some dancing and games (pumpkin bowling with mini pumpkins, and mummy making by wrapping them in TP) and then took them off before snack, oh and got some pics first too. We had a princess, a lion a dragon and an elephant.We did some crafts, had mummy pizzas for lunch and a long nap! I sent them home with their crafts and a little treat bag in a plastic pumpkin. The best part was having them all picked up by 4:30

Kidlove...that's so sad. Did you ask them to dress up?

I had a bumble bee, superman and a Cars race driver. My kids were a witch and a ninja. I was a pirate. We had a great party...also happy it's done. I don't enjoy dressing up at all, but I do it for the little guys...
