Slowly but surely faster towards the end.

So I helped Destiny get her vest fabric cut out, and the patches she is going to put on it and the skirt. It is sitting on my counter all over my cutting mat. We will have to put it together tomorrow. I think this will be a really neat costume. I think she is wearing it to school on Monday to. I want to make them new pillowcase candy bags again.
My aunt who I haven't seen in 12 years, since before my grandma past away, and my grandpa are stopping to visit on their way back to Fresno. They could be here any day after tomorrow. Yippee!

Halloween Costumes.

So Halloween costumes you can buy in stores are so expensive, and so flimsy. I am lucky my kids don't mind us making their costumes. Besides it gives them something to remember. The fun they had thinking up what they wanted to be. Then the fun we had trying to figure out what we were going to do to make that costume. This year Destiny wanted to be the Mad Hatter, and Mike wanted to be a Zombie. This is going to be so much fun. For Mike's costume we can't really put it together on him to see how it will look, because we are using a shroud to make him look zombie like. I don't want it to get all mangled, tangled, and ruined before Halloween. So I hope it will look good. Destiny's we are making a lot of, I think it will be neat. I will of course take pictures on Halloween before they go out, and post them.
