Halloween pictures 2



Look closely at Leanna's shoe. You can see the top of her sock sticking up. That is how she insists on wearing her socks. Every day it takes her about 15 minutes to position her socks exactly how she wants them. She doesn't like the sewn edge of the sock touching her toes so she pull the sock out and folds the extra up on top. I told her kids would laugh at her because it looks like she has an extra toe sticking up.
Note: for extra warmth Justin is also wearing about 2 layers under the costume and Leanna has pants, t-shirt, and sweater under hers. It's kind of a shame because her costume looks even prettier without the sweater. The bottom of her dress got drug on the ground and steps and through the water, so it's not so pretty anymore, but that's ok. It doesn't affect the overall look. She made a beautiful Cinderella. We saw a lot of dark spooky type costumes and there weren't many little kids out. I think that's why a lot of people saw Leanna and Justin and just said, "Awwww!" They just looked so different from everyone else who was out there. Which is nice for me, as the seamstress.

Our city always does it on the last Friday in October. That way the kids can be out late or stay at a party late and it doesn't matter. No school the next day.
In our case it's ok because we're going again at Tom's parent's house. That way they get to wear costumes and trick or treat twice. And Tom's parents get to see the kids all dressed up too.
