Several hot glue gun burns later and tons of hours on costume making I'm happy to put this day behind me. NOT so sure I'll be doing the homemade costume again next year but knowing me I will forget about the pains and go for it again.
We did Wednesday night at the church, they had a huge event with jumpy things, trunk or treat, the High School Band played a few songs and even a costume contest. If you may have guessed by now I go all out for events and may be a tad bit of a competitive in my nature. YUP I'm so trying to work on this one! I must say I was sad that we didn't win (ok a little peeved ... ok really peeved .. God so giving me a lesson to be humble). We will just say a really cool box with duct tape won and some store bought witch costumes. YUP I'm over it .. lol (yes I'm a work in progress).
Halloween night we headed up to my parents to visit with them and do the rounds then hit downtown where the shop owners give out candy. I'm happy to be done with it and happy it will another year before I get some crazy idea to make costumes again ... lol.
Hope you all had a safe night!
Have a GREAT weekend!
Hope they had fun trick or treating! I love their costumes - they seriously came out great!
