Happy Halloween!

So, when my brother Jesse was little (like under 3?) his 'girlfriend' Lindsey's mom, made costumes for them to be Pebbles and Bam Bam. (if i get my hand on this photo, it will be posted) Ever since that time, I have always hoped I could do that for my baby so... I did! I made this 'skirt' from fleece and pulled some elastic through the waist and tied it in a knot. I made the 'sash?" from vinyl and the bone was a radius bone of a skeleton Halloween decoration. lol. I cut some black fleece triangle shapes for the 'skirt'. Thanks to Itasca Liddell in my ward who I bumped into at the fabric store while debating what to make him a club out of... (the one I bought at party city was just too heavy for Evan, he couldn't lift it. anyone need a caveman club? only $10.00!) I decided a fleece club would be the best bet. He loves it! It will become a 'stuffed animal' for him after. Hey! I just made a stuffed animal! (well, a stuffed 'inanimate object' that is) I'll have to add some eyes, nose and mouth to it later or something. lol. So anyway, one of his (MANY) girl friends at church, Annabelle, is a month older than him and has red hair so.... I made her a pebbles costume! It's awesome too, of course and I will post pictures of them together after they see each other at the trunk or treat tonight at church. Anyway, I hope you enjoy our pictures. (No, Mike and I aren't dressing up that I plan as it's been too busy to think about ourselves, maybe next year?)






















"BAM BAM" trash can!








I could not believe I said "Bam Bam Bam" to Evan and he actually picked the 'club' up and started banging it around! It was so great, I picked up the camera immediately after and even capture a rare wave bye bye on one of the 2 videos I took! Now THAT's a 'treat'. he he he he he.
