We're gearing up for Halloween. The kids have all decided on their costumes. Cole is going to be some Star Wars character. The least he could have done was picked the Star Wars guy that he dressed as last year. That would have saved us some money. But nooooo, he had to go be a different Star Wars guy. Kids.
The girls are going to be the Tooth Fairy (Gracie) and a Blue Morpho Butterfly (Brady). And of course I did that thing that makes Moms everywhere kick themselves 2 weeks down the road...I said "I can make those".
And why, why, why do I have to have a child that must be a Blue Morpho Butterfly? Not just any old butterfly? You're sure Brady? A Blue Morpho? "Yes Mom, a Blue Morpho like on Diego that lives in a cave and has brown wings on the back and blue wings on the front and can't fly when it gets cold."
Know what you want and want what you know. That's what we say here in the Cavanagh household.
Jason and I won't be dressing up this year. It would be really difficult to top last years costumes. We were that cool. But I think I might draw a big scary face on my melon knee. How gross is that?!?! I've got Halloween in my blood. I have the best ideas.
We're hosting our "2nd Annual Neighborhood Halloween Gathering" as we're calling it. Luckily there isn't much we have to do to prepare. Note to self: Must order 100 hotdogs. Be on the lookout for pics from that one.
In the meantime I'll leave you with these photos taken by the kids' new camera while we were on our trip:
