For Halloween this year, Ellie decided she was going to be Ariel from the Little Mermaid. Great! We already had an Ariel costume, so that was easy. Then a couple of weeks before the big day, she came home from school and told me that another girl in her class was going to be Ariel, so she was now going to be a cowgirl. Um, okay, that doesn't sound too hard either. I found some adorable cowgirl boots at Target, we headed to the fabric store to get some denim and pink fabric, and Gran whipped up a cute little costume.
We all headed to Ellie's school for her Halloween party and parade. Jason was dressed up from work (he didn't just dress up for Ellie's party), and Max had a good time watching the kids. He always loves going to Ellie's school.
We also headed to the zoo on the day before Halloween for Boo at the Zoo. Ellie decided to mix it up and wear her Ariel costume this day to get a little use out of both costumes. That trip quite possibly will be our first and last attempt at Boo at the Zoo, because it quite literally was a zoo that day. There were so many people!!
Here are the kids on the big night getting ready to collect their goodies. We had an adorable monkey costume for Max, which of course he absolutely refused to wear. So we improvised and he was a Mizzou football player. At least he was comfortable, and maybe the new little guy will want to be a monkey for Halloween one year.
