Avery started out wanting to be an Indian Princess. Since finding out we have some Indian blood in our veins, she has been very excited about "representing our people". She is (and I quote) "Like Hannah Montana, with a secret identity....half regular girl, half secret Indian princess". Why secret....because when she told a friend at school, they teased her..so she is keeping her Indian heritage under wraps for awhile. We hit the costume store in search of an Indian princess dress....one that did not look like an Indian Princess meets Las Vegas showgirl...but on our search she found....a pink boxer costume (boxer as in "Rocky" not boxer dog :) Not only was it pink and came with boxing gloves...the girl on the front of the package had the exact some pink converse high tops as Avery has....a match made in heaven. So...a pink boxer she shall be.
Weston is going as a paint ball player. We didn't have to get a costume for him...but those who know him know he doesn't go anywhere without all the accessories....he'll be wearing regular clothes, carrying a paintball gun with a cover over the barrel (so the police don't pull him over..."they" said this has happened before...("they" being the guys at the sporting goods store who saw the opportunity for a sale) , some paintball pods which fit nicely into a paintball podholder which it then velcroed around his waist, paintball gloves and probably a hat. Any bets on how much I'll be carrying before the night is done :)
I love fall....I love halloween....I love halloween with my kids...we have costumes, we have trick-or-treat bags...now all we need is CANDY!!
