obligatory october post

happy belated halloween from the teacher, the firefighter, & the fairy princess. i have given up trying to coordinate costumes or manipulate the kids choices. levi picked out his firefighter suit at costco, but his favorite part of his costumes was daddy's flashlight. miley went for the fairy princess (of course/again).

mia wanted to be a teacher (yeah!). we got her reading glasses from the dollar bin, a $5 sweater from walmart, and borrowed jewelry from her kindergarten teacher. i cut apples and letters out of felt and hotglued them to the sweater. she was very happy with the result and even happier when she took first place in the girl scout costume contest.

mia asked me to put a chicka chicka boom boom tree on her sweater. i love her creativity. and i love hot glue.
