Happy Halloween

I realize I'm a few days late, but better late than never, right?

This year, Bradyn decided that she wanted to be Frankie Stein from Monster High (her current obsession).  The bolts presented a bit of a challenge to find but, in the end, we got them from a great costume store in Vancouver.  Bradyn and I went to a friend's for dinner on the Sunday before Halloween.  After getting home from the party, we realized she'd forgotten to wear the belt!

Bradyn's Grade 1 class put on a Halloween play on Monday afternoon.  Unfortunately, Mommy got the date wrong and missed it.  (I've NEVER done anything like that, and felt SOOOOO bad!!  But seriously, why wouldn't the Halloween play be on Halloween day???)  Bradyn forgave me when I promised to come to her class on Wednesday to make sure she was all done up for the school parade.  I got a few good shots of her classmates, but thought I better not post them here since I don't have permission.  However, here is a shot of Miss B, waiting to feast on some treats.

Bradyn was very particular about the pumpkin carving this year - a vampire pumpkin, eating another pumpkin.  (I blame Kevin).  I carved the little one, but B insisted that the mouth needed to be big enough to accomodate her doll's torso (again, I blame Kevin). 

"Hey Mom, this is what Frankie Stein would look like with one arm and one leg." (What happened?  Did the vampire pumpkin eat the others?)

Sooo happy with her costume.  Love that tooth gap - soon to be bigger.
