My girls LOVE Halloween. I mean they really LOVE it. They talk about their costumes for weeks months before hand, going back and forth as to what they want to be. First Sarah wanted to be a hippie … and she doesn’t really even know what one is! For months Anna was SURE she wanted to be Snow White … I was all for that since we already have a Snow White dress, and its in good condition. Then Sarah decided she just had to be Hannah Montana. Anna decided she would be a lady bug (they were both lady bugs two years ago!). Then Anna was back to wanting to be Snow White. Then I went and priced Hannah Montana costumes and went into sticker shock. All of the ones I found were way over-priced and not good quality either. In the end I decided we’d make our own Hannah Montana look, so Anna and I went shopping. Naturally Anna decided she just had to be Hanna Montana, too.
So we found funky jeans, rocker shirts, chunky black boots, loads of bangle braclets, bright headbands, and threw in some glitter makeup, purple eye shadow, and some lipstick. I even found Sarah a blonde Hannah wig to wear. She decided she would be Miley instead so she wouldn’t need the wig!!
They are wild about the final result and got to wear their outfits this weekend for the fall festival we attended. And we get to do it all over again for Halloween!
