I'll admit that Halloween isn't my favorite holiday. But I DO enjoy seeing my children dress up! Their excitement is palpable as we visualize costume possibilities, scrounge the costumes up, and finally see them brought to fruition. I also enjoy the challenge of making their costumes. This year I just made Ian's, and it was a furry mess for a while! Trimming that white furry fabric left trails of white fuzz all over the house.
So... the final costumes are Ian as a baby harp seal (photo below, if you aren't sure what they look like) and Nina as Princess Aurora.
We went trick or treating at Burnsville mall, since Ian had the sniffles and I wanted to keep them indoors.
Nina was beyond enthused to be able to wear makeup for the FIRST time. She carried herself with a regal presence and was noticeably more diplomatic and beautified!
Such fun.

I see the resemblance between you & Nina a lot lately. It's like looking at pictures of you when we were little. So fun!
