Over the weekend we had our first family Halloween event, but tonight we had our first in costume Halloween event. It was "Fall Family Fun Night" at Isaac's school. We've never attended before because it's ALWAYS a weeknight at 5:30pm. This year however we decided since it was Isaac's last chance to attend we'd make it happen. Since their "real costumes" were either still being assembled or white (and this was an outdoor event) we went with their back-ups. Riley was Ladybug Girl (if you haven't read that book series you should it's very empowering to little girls) and Isaac was Dr. Who (a la David Tennant). Behold, the awesomeness!
Ladybug Girl Quick note: I bought ladybug tights on the cheap and stretched them over her existing second hand rain boats Ta-da! I had Mike apply a coat of something for anti-slip on the bottom, but walking on the sidewalk tore up the tights on the bottom of her boots. When we came home we cut the damaged parts off and just stapled the edges so she could walk on the tread of the boot next time (And the tights can still be removed).
Dr. Who Proud Mom Note: He won Honorable mention in the costume contest!
Here is my favorite pictures of the night, before we left the kids posed in front of our Halloween Decorations: (One More Proud Mom/Former Actress Note: This was all acting, aren't they great?)
AAAAAAHHHHH!!!
The Spider (it lights up purple at night)
"Oh no! What will we do Doctor?!?"
"Not to worry Ladybug Girl I'll save you"
"Take that!!"
"Ha, Ha! Nice work, Doctor"
