The first year we were together, I was a cop and Chris was a robber (original, I know). Last year we were packing up and moving and Halloween came and went without a second thought, so I insisted we dress up as as something. I have always loved Halloween. We aren’t “Gleeks” really–but we do appreciate us some powerful singing on Tuesday nights (or later online.) So why not dress as Finn and Rachel from the hit show? We straightened Chris’s hair a bit and I used some white puffy paint on a DI find red jersey for the 5s and nike symbol. We also found that plaid skirt that I am sporting at DI. I cut it shorter and used the excess fabric to add a big bow to the front. Totally Rachel. Too bad I can’t sing.
And for the star of the night. Our little mermaid. Let’s just all “OOOooo” and “Aaahhh” for a moment. She actually was able to crawl all over the gym at the ward Halloween Party Fall Festival even with a constricting fin. She is so cute.
We are so excited for next year when we can take her trick-or-treating. Speaking of trick-or-treating, there were kids out in the neighborhood on Thursday!?! We were so confused. Luckily, our front door is around the back of a house so we didn’t get any kids. Otherwise, they may have got their choice of an apple or a handful of nuts and candy corn. Happy Halloween!


I LOVE YOUR LITTLE MERMAID!!! Too darn cute.
I thought Greta was going to be a Cheerio!
But I love her Mermaid costume :)
You two are a perfect Finn and Rachel. Love it.
SHE IS SOOOOO CUTE!
And you are miss crafty aren’t you??? Where do you find the time??/ I am SO impressed. We were SO boring this year. Ryan wasn’t feeling well that whole weekend and I was so stinking exhausted I gave up. We were going to be Blades of Grass, since Brin was a ladybug? It worked in my mind but seemed like A LOT of work. Next year though, I’m already planning :-)
How cute! She looks amazing and you guys do too. What great ideas. Happy Halloween! :)
