The costumes

The idea of the girls costumes seemed to come to me easliy this year. I knew Avery would be Minnie Mouse because she is so in love with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and it was just a perfect time for her to be Minnie. I got her costume made on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/) and since Riley was still so little, I decided she would be most comfortable in a onesie. So, she became a ladybug with a big bow on her head! I love the bow! I got it on an ebay auction for $8...which is a steal for that type of "big-o-bow" (that's my slang for the extrememly large bows). Anyway, they actually were coordinating in their black, red & white....which was not by accident if you know me! I think they were cute! We spent the morning at the park with some friends and then went trick-or-treating in our old neighborhood with some friends. It was a great day and my little Minnie Mouse was quite the trick-or-treater! She loved it! We came home and passed out candy for a while...until a boy dressed as a skeleton came to the door and that was it! Avery didn't want anything to do with passing out candy, so we turned out our light and called it a night!
