Halloween

This year for Halloween, Ruthie and Oly both wanted to be Mermaids.  Since, as a quilter, I only sew straight lines and 90 degree angles- Amelia was tasked with taking measurements and sewing beautiful stretchy tails for the girls.  I made them each headbands of mermaid hair and target made them sparkly tank tops.  

Luckily a few weeks ago when the costumes were completed I took some pictures of her:


Because on Halloween it was freezing and neither girl would wear anything UNDER the tanktops, so the costumes were covered in coats.



And Charlie was an extremely grumpy shark:


Fire Chief Kyle was in charge:





It will be remembered by the kids as a blast, but basically there were frustrated tears and cold ears.  Happy Halloween!
