Halloween Dress Up Fun

On Tuesday October 20th, 2009 the boys were offered some last minute tickets to a Suns preseason basketball game and ditched us girls for the evening. Yes, it was a school night, but Jakob is a good kid (his teacher told us this week) and he had 2 half days anyway because of Parent Teacher conferences. So off they went.
Meanwhile back at the ranch, the girls spontaneously decided they were going to try on practically every costume we have! I was really pleased because thus far Emma was resisting all attempts at trying anything on for Halloween.

Here is the cast of characters , in order of appearance:
Emma the unicorn and Anna the monkey.


Petting the unicorn.

Anna the Pooh Bear and Emma the unicorn, checking themsleves out in the mirror, and checking out that big stuffed tummy!

Anna the Pharaoh (this is the most coveted costume we have, and Anna can't wait until she is tall enough to wear it for real! As Cleopatra, I guess) and Emma the monkey.

Emma the cat and Anna the 50's sock hop girl (she wore that poodle skirt to a Daddy Daughter activity when she was a year old! I couldn't believe she got it on!)
