D wanted to be Thomas the Tank Engine for Halloween. So I designed a little costume for him and thought it was pretty cool.
Uuntil I saw what other people have done...
But try to forget that image when you see Dalton's...
I'm quite proud of the fact that anyone who knows Thomas could recognize his costume as such.
And Belle refused to tell me what she wanted to be, so she was a princess. Mostly because I had princessy material.
Kinda hard to see since she is in perpetual motion. But it was....billowy.
The kiddos, of course, thought that Trick or Treating was the greatest tradition ever invented. Belle very quickly picked up on the concept and dove enthusiastically into any bowl of candy offered to her.
Other fall things we've gotten to do....
Jump in the leaves
Ok, first, the Thomas the Train is darling! And I will say Congrats on your sewing. I have long since 'retired' from sewing ;)
ReplyDeleteFor the longest time, we'd ask my grandson what his name was, to which he'd say, "Santino Thomas-the-Train". (Stepson's last name is Thomas)
I think he's past that. But not Spiderman. Which is what he was for Halloween - his first trick-or-treating at houses. "I wanna go to another Pooky house, Gramma." Was too much fun.
But I may have to dust off the sewing machine next year. Baby's Mama changed his costume at the last minute to a silly little lycra thing - not the one Son bought. (it's always a contest, it seems). So I think next year, Gramma will have to get into the race.
I just hope he'll be done w/ 'Piderman by then!
