I had a VERY happy little boy who was pacing around for over 30 minutes waiting to go to school for his party! On Halloween we will paint his face white & draw whiskers & probably wear white mittens. The school says no face paints so we are just skipping that stuff for today.
This is the first costume I have ever made all the pieces for and I am very proud! It was even more exciting to have someone from B’s office offer to buy it for their grandson next year after seeing Zander wear it.
Time for the good stuff PICTURES! This afternoon we took the kids to B’s work to show off their costumes & took a walk in down town afterward for pictures… they were literally STOPPING traffic. I am surprised there weren’t accidents because people were slamming on their brakes to roll down their windows & tell the kids how awesome they were. Surprise, surprise they didn’t want to stay still! So some of the pictures are a little blurry, but I still think they are cute!
There are more pictures and all the details on how I made them on my blog http://everythingyourmamamade.com/2010/10/29/cat-in-the-hat-thing-1-thing-2/

We let them out of their red box in town & they were off!
