Adorable Halloween Costume

>> Wednesday, September 15, 2010 – costume, Halloween, Macey

I wanted to share with you this awesome site for everything Halloween...

They have tons of costumes to pick from.

I got this adorable Goldilocks costume the other day.

The details are oh so sweet.

I just love the 3 bears that sit in her pockets.

They are attached so you won't loose them while out trick or treating,

but can be removed after Halloween for your little girl to play with.

I got the size that she normally wears and it fits her perfectly.

The costume is wonderfully made and it comes with the cute little hair bows too.

We go to story time at the Library,

and I think this would be such a cute costume to wear during the month of October.

Check out Costume Super Center,

they have one of the biggest selections in costumes for all age ranges.

They are fast on their shipping and they also advertise free shipping on exchanges.

So don't wait til the last minute to get your costume.

Be ahead of the game and browse through all of their unique choices from infants to adults.

I think you'll find it hard to pick which costume you like the most.

If you spend $30 use the coupon code TAKE30 at checkout to receive a 20% discount.

Once you get your costume, come see me so I can photograph you in the costume ;)

Toy Story 3

>> Saturday, June 19, 2010 – costume, Disney, Halloween, Macey, movie, projects, Toy Story 3

Today we went to our mall to see Toy Story 3 in 3-D. They had activities planned for the kids and a costume contest as well. It wasn't until after midnight last night I decided I wanted Macey to wear a costume. I actually thought it would be pretty easy since my 11 year old was Jesse for Halloween NINE years ago. I had everything I needed except for decorating the shirt. I thought to myself oh, this want take long. And really it didn't except I did this while I should have been sleeping. I think it came out all right. Thank heavens for hot glue guns :) I was very happy that I didn't purchase a thing for this costume! Except for the hat, but I bought earlier that day before I ever had a costume in my mind, and it was only $5.

It amazes me how creative use start to be come at 2 am with less than 6 hrs. to create this all while missing sleep:) I used the kids play money (coins) for the "buttons" and cut/glued paper circles out on top. Some yellow felt, red ric rac, and hot glue I had a shirt. The hat was pretty easy, I just thread yarn through the hat. I had NO white ribbon so I used elastic for the white band.

When I saw the adorable little Etch a Sketch and Mr. Potato Head I knew who had first and second place for the costume contest. I thought Macey had a chance for 3rd but wasn't sure. To my excitement she took 3rd place and received 2 free movie passes to see the movie :) YEAH!! for her.

She had fun playing the games.

3 must have been the lucky number today :) We saw Toy Story 3, Macey is 3, Macey won 3rd place, and in the theaters they gave out prizes if you could answer Toy Story trivia. The question was how many eyes to the aliens have? They picked Macey and she held up 3 fingers and won a 3 eyed alien.

Today was a blast! All worth a sleepless night!

Punks, Pirates, Monsters, Monkeys...

>> Sunday, November 1, 2009 – Halloween, Pumpkins

That's what my kids were for Halloween.

Actually Alex and his buddy didn't dress up they just went as themselves "punks" and yes, they did actually Trick or Treat for candy :D

Oops, no picture :(

Allison was a "Monster Bride" If she had been wearing her hat you would be able to tell that she was in fact Mrs. Frankenstein.

Madison was a girly, punkish, pirate, although everyone thought she was a gypsy.

Macey, well I think you can tell what she was, she was a little GIRLY monkey...notice the bow!!!

This photo below was actually from the night we went to the library, so here, Macey has a red bow when Halloween night she wore a pink one.

Look closely at Allison's hat...see the bolts on the side?

We went with some friends and rode on the back of a trailer. Oh, how COLD it was, but so much FUN!

After Trick or Treating we came home and had pizza and finally made our Gingerbread Haunted House. It was taking so long for the icing to set up so we just gave each kid a piece and told them to decorate that. It turned out pretty fun and I'm sure they made some memories this night.

I think our pumpkins this year turned out pretty good.
(my green one is suppose to be Frankenstein, NOT the Hulk;)

This was my first year to carve a pumpkin :D Not sure why???

Jack Skeleton = Warren's

Mickey Mouse = Mine

Who's do you like better????

They're even cooler at night :)

That wraps up our Halloween night.

Can't believe it's over. Looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas:D

Monkey Business

Oh how hard it was to pick the perfect costume for Mae Mae. I wanted "girly" and I wanted CUTE! I wasn't digging the "girly" ones as much as I was the cuteness of this one. :)
