Halloween Party

This year I set out to make my kids' Halloween costumes, as if I didn't have enough projects going on :). It took quite a few sleepless nights, but I finished them in time for the ward party, which was held last night. Though it took a lot of effort to make them, I have to say that it was worth it. I got a lot of compliments on the costumes, and they were unique. Though Andre was the only elephant, there were quite a few lions, and to be honest - Harper was the cutest one. See for yourself:

This picture would have been a lot cuter without the binky, but Harper would not cooperate. (Andre was even worse)

Here we are on the way to the party

There were a lot of fun games the kids could participate it and get little prizes. Andre loved it. He also decided to stop at the coloring table - I have to mention he was the only one there, since the other games looked a lot more fun
Andre throwing plastic spiders into pumpkin buckets. Check out the kids wrist - a basketball player in the making!

In line to playt yet another game

This was Andre favorite by far - Ghost bowling

Andre and his best friend Allie - sadly they moved up north, so he won't get to play with her much anymore. Allie was a cute flower fairy, though Joni, I still think she should have gone as Captain Hook like she wanted. :)Cute little girl Natalia - so girlyThis is the best picture I could get of Andre's costume

More candy

Yet another decorated trunk

I thought candy was enough sweets for the day - apparently NOT - Andre had to have a couple of cupcakes to top it off
