Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!
From Hermione, Moana and our little ballerina

This is the first year we did a Halloween costume that integrated the wheelchair and we love it! Lamp loves it! I put dad in charge and he said he was going to “keep it simple” and I smiled, because I knew that even him “keeping it simple” would be a home run. I did all the painting (and Lamp helped too!) but really, it was all dad.

If you’re thinking that we put a lot more effort into Lamp’s costumes than into the other girls’ costumes, well you’d be right–ha! But they are both exactly who/what they wanted to be. At first PSP was debating between a few ideas, but then she settled on Hermione. Are you sure? I asked. Because she was Hermione two years ago. But she wouldn’t budge. I think since she now has Hermione’s time turner and wand this steps it up a few levels. Also, now that I think of it, I had to talk her out of being Hermione last year… it was inevitable.

And this little one went through a few different ideas before deciding that she wanted to be a ballerina. And by “ballerina” she meant that she wanted to wear her sisters old dance costume that she wears ALL THE TIME anyway.

“Do you want a crown?”
“No.”
“Do you want to wear blush?”
“No.”
“Can I put your hair in a bun?”
“No.”

And then I realized that I why try to make Halloween harder, when what she wanted was easier on everyone? So here it is.

Here we are.
Happy Halloween.
