My Smurfs



Last Thursday night was the Fall Festival at Lilly's school.  They had soup for everyone, a costume parade, caramel apples for the kids, and other fair related activities. The kids are not allowed to dress in costume at school (lame), so they had this night time family event to give the kids an opportunity to dress up.



We dressed Jack up as Papa Smurf per Lilly's request.

I am happy to say that Lilly was the only smurf at her school.  Everywhere she went people said "Look it's a Smurf!"  or "There is Smurfette!"  I thought with the movie out this year there would have been more smurfs. 

This picture turned out like a 80s glamour shot. Awesome!



I love that Lilly and Jack are dressing up as characters from my childhood.

I love it! Guess how many pictures it took me to realize that isn't Lilly's real hair? (Way too many.) There's something very satisfying about making your kids' costumes, isn't there?

What great costumes! You're so creative - don't know how you do it.

I have to give all the credit for any creativity to my sister. I call her for hours at a time begging her for her expertise. She decides what I should do, scours the internet for things for me to buy and then I put it together. Melissa - my Dad asked me if that was Lilly's real hair and he has seen her as recently as this summer.

I guess I can't give all the credit to my sister, I am smart enough to do what she tells me and I did sew those hats on my own. ;)
