We don't have our pumpkins yet and with our schedule, I don't think going to the patch is an option.

Also, P won't decide on a costume. We have one but I don't think he likes it. sigh.

I couldn't find or get together the costume that my 6 year old wanted...so I convinced her last night to be something else, that we could already put together with what we have at home. Happy happy...no money spent, and no effort.

Hope you can find something! I sure he will rock whatever he has.

Tell him your testing to see how much of your artistic genes he got and that he needs to go all MacGyver on it and make one.

My youngest is being a hill billy - plaid shirt, cowboy hat, jeans, and some fake freckles. Of course she's a girl, so the blond pig tails really sell the whole thing.

What about a traveling sales man? Suit case, suit, tie, shoes. I think they are more creative when they have to come up with something from what they have. This is what Pinterest is for. We did a spa girl for a party one year and it was a huge hit with the other kids.

Just put him in one of your bf's button up shirts and ties, then draw him a mustache with some black eyeliner. Done and done.

Ainsley has her heart set on being a dog. We didn't find anything ( and I'm cheap and don't sew ) so I'm winging it. I'm going to alter up some sweats, I think I have the supplies but I haven't started to put it together yet. I'm not exactly sure how it's all going to come together.

I convinced all of mine to stay home and pass out candy this year. We're baking pumpkin shaped sugar cookies too. Yay!
