~Halloween 2011~

We always love Halloween around our house! While I was too exhausted being pregnant to really dive into creative Halloween costume ideas, the girls were left to decide on their own what they would be this year! They had a great time and collected pounds of candy!!

Katherine threw on her best Laura Ingalls Wilder look at the last minute since her AP US History teacher informed the class of an extra credit assignment involving trick-or-treating and candy-trading. Until the extra credit opportunity was offered, Katherine hadn't planned to go since she is getting so old...

Kora decided to keep with the Harry Potter obsession of Fall 2011 by going as Hermoine Granger for Halloween. We already had the robe thanks to her Aunt Melanie. I just braided her hair for some frizz and bought a plastic wand--a just like magic, she was transformed!!
Kallen had decided several months in advance that she would be a princess for Halloween. I was hesitant to purchase a costume too early for fear she would change her mind. Luckily for me, she went with Princess Tiana and stuck with it! She was a little concerned because her hair isn't black like Tiana's but decided that was okay once we got the whole costume on her!
