Halloween Costumes!!!

Halloween in the blogosphere is such fun. All our blogging friends are sharing photos of so many adorable and oh-so-scary costumes.

Jackson and Julia both had great fun this Halloween.

Jackson dressed as Darth Vader for Halloween day at school.

And he dressed as a Knight for Trick or Treating.

Update: In these early days, we purchased Halloween costumes for our kids. They’d have fun choosing what they wanted to dress up as and then we’d find a costume they liked. It worked well and they always had fun. But later as I started doing crafts, DIY projects and sewing again for our blog, I decided to start sewing Halloween costumes for our girls. My mom had sewn handmade Halloween costumes for my siblings and me when we were young, and I wanted to carry that tradition forward.

In 2014, when our girls were ages 7 and 9, I sewed our girls these adorable black cat costumes for kids that ended up becoming one of our most popular DIY tutorials for years.

In 2015, I made these fun black bat costumes and these no-sew animal ears.

    I hope that rocking horse is not part of Jackson’s costume. Might make it a little hard to go door-to-door! LOL!

    They’re so adorable. I bet they got lots of candy!
