they're off to see the wizard....

it's official...

the kiddos are dressing up in wizard of oz costumes this year!

it all started with bella.

she told me she wanted to be dorothy from the 'lizard of oz'.

(i think it was because she wanted to carry toto in the basket.)

once she decided on dorothy,

i figured we'd make it a family affair!

we already had a lion costume from when jackson was little, 

perfect for our charlotte.

(but of course she needed a bow.  and she wanted her sparkle shoes, too)

 

and finally....

jackson as the tin man.

mommy has NEVER made a costume before.

i decided to give it a try...

(this may be my first and last year!)

i think he turned out pretty cute for a no-sew costume.

(and for the record... i did make him a funnel hat.  but he wanted no part of it.  

so we sprayed his hair silver- but it is hard to tell!)

 

they're off to see the wizard!

or at least a lot of houses full of candy.

and i am off to vacuum up all the glitter from the tin mans' costume :)

here's a little trip down memory lane....

happy halloween!
