costumes are fun!!

we had a really fun time dressing up this year. at the last minute i decided to join in the fun, and dress up too!! i chose to wear nathan's high school football jersey, and do the under eye smudges too. those didn't end up looking like they were supposed to, but hey, i tried! we also had no crown for princess rebekah, so aj made one! i was impressed. who knew what could be done with cardboard, tinfoil, tape and stickers?! colby was superman, caleb was johnny from the fantastic 4, and little rachel was a hula girl. i wasn't sure what to do with her hair, because she doesn't have much of it. but again, aj came to the rescue. we braided as many spots as we could, and while i was pulling pizza out of the oven, she put embellishments on the bottom of each braid. i never would have thought of that!! and it looked great!!



the only drawback of the evening was running over a cat on our way home. they usually dart away at the last second, but this one didn't!! so a very big apology to whoever's pet i killed! wah!
