Hi Mom and Kiddo.
Now that's what I call 'homemade', nice work! What else are you making for Halloween this year? If you are interested, you can enter anything homemade for Halloween in this Homemade Halloween Contest $400 in prizes!

Oh! How cute--love the heart & the smiley face. *Real* school buses should consider such pimpin'.

You'll be happy to know we have never succumbed to a store-bought costume. This year I went the extra mile, I bought a Simplicity pattern.

I am in the process of sewing a Native American Indian costume for Benjamin.

I figure, I survived cancer...I can survive Simplicity, right?

Love it, love it, love it!

Last year the whole family had so much fun making PBug's hot air balloon costume (and she was the talk of the neighborhood!). It wasn't perfect either but she did most of the painting and decorating herself.

This year she will be a farmer, since that's what she [currently] wants to be when she grows up. We found what she needed at Goodwill. Her brother is going to be a cow, simply because someone gave us a cow costume once and it goes so well with hers :)

Very cool. I have to admit that we buy costumes. So bad.

This is pretty neat. I am hoping we will get to kid-made in the next couple years. For now we will be reusing the witch costume that was mostly homemade by my husband (the hat, however, does come from the store).
