Whew! I made it out to take Halloween photos today BEFORE the pretty leaves fell! I was worried with my heavy sewing load and the early fall that I might not make it. Thankfully they hung on just long enough!
Here they are with their fairy godmother that I talked about earlier;
Luckily I took our blue belle dress with us because we didn't get to meet her when my dd wore it the first time so we quickly threw it on over her other dress
I got the call from our princess friend at the last minute so we didn't have what they were going to wear with us but that's okay. We were still thankful for the opportunity. There are some really cute photos on our photo pass I will have to show you when we get it!

I don't know what's going on either, but here's a hug.(Although it might just be bad karma for not adopting me last year when I asked you too. )
I just wanted to say that I don't know what all is going on, but I wanted to give you a big (((HUG))) anyway! Hope your situation gets better soon!
Wow everyones halloween costumes are awesome!!
I hope our kids realize how lucky they are.
Here are my 3 little (OK not so little) darlings...
The evil witch
And Hannah Montana (he was even wearing a stuffed bra which he took off after about an hour saying "I don't know how girls can wear these"
We just returned yesterday but I don't have all of my pictures uploaded so I will just start with day one and two....more to follow..
These are the customs I made for our dinner on the first night @ Chef Mickey's.
Our first day in the park was "Peter Pan and Tinkerbell day". I not only made customs for the granddaughters but also for my daughter and son-in-law. He was teased all day but they had a good time. Cinderella's stepsister even asked him "who made you wear that?" (excuse the shadowy pictures)
My youngest Granddaughter is named Wendy so these overalls were appropriate for her..the back said "you can fly" (the picture didn't show all the words)
And Mia wore Tinkerbell...I didn't even get a picture of the back but it had a picture of Peter Pan on the back
My very talented girlfriend who has no children came by and did all the pumpkin carving with the two littlest kids.
Nicole was Dorothy and Mitchell was the tin man so that is what she carved. Bless her!!
Here is what I've been working on lately.
I just picked up this material fromb/c I was purchasing a Nemo fabric to make a bowling shirt and the same seller had it listed. The kids will wear these on arrival day when we go to DD to activate our tickets and scope out a few of the resort's decorations. They may wear them again to MK if I don't get my rear in gear and get more sewing done! DD will likely wear a red long sleeved t under the shirt (and ds may too if the temp isn't above 70). I also have some shorts for dd that I could ruffle, but I can't imagine it being warm enough to wear shorts in early Dec.
Shirt is Carla's Bowling shirt (but of course!), top is Simply Sweet empire bodice with my version of a twirl. Jeans were $2.48 at Target on clearance. I'm not a huge deco fan but thought I'd give it a whirl. I wanted to put the golden yellow bias tape over the ruffle but I could barely cram it under my presser foot as is:
Applique (still getting some puckersand my ears are a little uneven
Jeans:
DISCLAIMER: I DID NOT MAKE THE NEXT OUTFIT. Well, I did make the bowling shirtThe girl's Nemo outfit was purchased before I ever dreamed I could sew. In hindsight, I could have made the dress, but there is no way my applique would be this good:
And this is a better picture of the skirt portion of the Cars dress so you can get a better look at the fabrics (Did I mention I had to rip SEVEN seams while making this dress including two that were already serged???):
Better get sewing so my kids don't go to Dis naked......
