Making Her Parents Proud

With a little encouragement from Daddy, Bradyn's latest obsession is with Supergirl. Once again, thank God for Craigslist. You see, the easily accessible costumes from Zellers and Superstore weren't good enough - no - the dress couldn't have a red metallic skirt with gold accents. It had to be red and yellow - just like the picture. When we couldn't find the boots, Kevin came through again, by painting a pair of yellow ones he found. (he was the one that found the perfect boots last year for her Pocahontas costume.) So far, Bradyn only has one costume for Halloween this year... we'll see how long that lasts.

For all of you superhero fans (that means you Darkside), Kevin wanted to point out the following:
George Reeves played Superman on television in the 1950's.
Christopher Reeve played Superman in the movies from 1978-1987.
Now, Bradyn Reeves stars as Supergirl in "her first great adventure".


On Friday night Bradyn and I were playing dress up. For Cinderella's rag dress, Bradyn chose my old Laura Ingalls dress that mom made years ago (it's OK - I wasn't offended). After a lot of bargaining, Bradyn finally agreed to put on the bonnet as well, and let me take some pictures. Too bad she'll never want to be what I choose for Halloween.

We're so thankful our little girl indulges us once in a while.
