Fabulous Friday - Halloween Recap

TGIF!
Happy day after Halloween!

We had a very busy but productive candy producing Halloween. For Sophie's party at school yesterday she decided she wanted to be Minnie Mouse again. She came to this decision because she was gravely concerned that she would get her Repunzel dress dirty playing in the mulch at school because "mommy sometimes we like to sit down in it and play" so she would wear Minnie Mouse and preserve Repunzel for trick or treating. Sometimes it scares me how much we are alike! 

On her own this year, my child decided that she wanted to be both Minnie Mouse and Repunzel which made me just giddy with happiness! These are two really nice costumes which we already had from our spring trip to Disney World. You can only imagine my excitement at not having to buy a halloween costume!! Instead, I tried to play it cool when she suggested it because I did not want to make any sudden movements that would deter her from this decision. I was like a deer in headlights. 

Sophie was very proud of our Oreo Truffle Ghosts that we made for her school party.

I will not be giving Martha Stewart a run for her money anytime soon but overall, they turned out pretty cute and luckily it doesn't take too much to impress 4 year olds!


Not sure if you can tell but the big pumpkin on the right also has a tongue so it appears as though he is throwing up. Jeff said it reminded him of me from my recent sick days. Anyways, Sophie thought it was so gross and perfect. In all fairness, we stole it from my Mom and Dad since they found the idea and made it happen.

Enjoying her cupcake mustache at her school party!

She was so excited when Daddy surprised her and made it the Halloween Party at school!

Repunzel's wig was a little heavy so it looked a bit more like she had a bad weave but Sophie loved it so that is all that mattered. She said she was going to toss her hair from her bedroom window so Garrison, her friend across the street, could climb up it. Oh my girl, I am sure that would make Daddy so happy to hear! 

Ready for some candy!!

Sweet babies!

Gigi trying to keep up with Sophie!


A family in our neighborohood dressed as Despicable Me. As if that is not cute enough - she made all their costumes too. Seriously amazing right?!

We racked up last night and our house smells like a candy store. Jeff and I look forward to doing our parental duties this evening and combing through her candy to make sure it is all "safe". The unsafe candy will need to be eaten by one of us, you know, just to be on the safe side and all. That is just a risk we are willing to take because we are such awesome parents!

 Have a great weekend!!
XOXO
