Anyone thinking of Halloween yet??
We think of Halloween early and I caught a status of KCB's about how her kids have picked their costumes already. Has anybody else thought of costumes yet?
We're going as Skylanders. It's going to be great! We started to do family costumes last year and will continue that tradition this year.

My girls are going as Elsa. This is the first year I am going to try to sew them myself. I ordered the pattern (because they were out at my Joanns) and then I will snag fabric in the next week or so.

I did just the other day. I got an email from where we order, and asked my boys. I didn't get a single answer as to what they want... grrrr... I'm trying to be better at planning for things, and they didn't help! Last year, we were really early... still hoping for this year too!
Love the Skylanders idea!

Yep...Rachel's Monster High costume came last week. Of course she also bought 2 other costumes at Once Upon a Child (we had credit and it's what she chose)...so she can wear different costumes to each event, I guess.

We bought 2 for Chloe at a consignment event a month or so ago. One is a cheerleader, and the other is a bumble bee. They're different sizes, so I guess we'll see which one fits her better come halloween time (they were both super cheap, and we'll be able to turn around and sell them again).

We don't do Halloween normally. It's just something my husband never did as a kid. When we married that was one of the things he asked was not to do Halloween. His dad was a preacher. Last year though Cole kept asking. Daddy does what ever Cole wants. So I have a feeling this year he may get to lol! If that happens we shall see. Last year I had Cade November 1st. So I will be planning a first birthday party then also

We have been tossing around ideas. My first choice for Kennedy is a Rockford Peach...from A League of Their Own. But that will require me to sew.
http://www.pinterest.com/pin/145311525451299985/ I'm attempting to allow her to choose her costume but it's hard lol. Knowing her it could be anything from a unicorn, to a cowgirl, to a ninja turtle. Each day it changes. lol

Yes! I am soooooooo excited to finally have two kids to coordinate costumes! #supernerd
Miss Monkey is going as Little Red Riding Hood, and Mister Moose is going as The (Little) Big Bad Wolf.  I will definitely NOT be making their costumes.

It's not really a big thing here, I do still get the kids a costume though, and we also carve some pumpkins
But to answer the question, I haven't even thought of getting prepared yet! I'm usually last minute and hope they have the size costumes I need!!

Keira is going to be Princess Peach, Cooper is going to be Luigi and Harper is going to be Mario. That's what the kids wanted to do last year, but I couldn't find a costume small enough for Harper, I'm still a little worried this one will be too big for him.

We don't do halloween here in China, so no costumes here... I don't really celebrate it anyway, so no biggy. But yes, it'd be cute to see my son dress up! lol!

Usually this is when I start thinking about it and asking the kids, but we're going to be late this year. With DD starting K next week and me going back to work (teaching preschool) in 2 weeks, back to school is still consuming all our attention. Maybe mid-Sept we'll decide and order/buy costumes.

I think Coley wants to be some sort of action figure guy.
My daughter has been a dead person the last few years...zombie cheerleader, zombie prom queen, a vampire...she's into dead things. No princess stuff for my chick. LOL!

Halloween is my FAVORITE! I've made my kids' costumes every year except on the year each of them was born. And I think given what they have chosen this year, I'm not going to make them this year either.
 Kinda sad... They requested a warewolf and 'draculette'. Lol

My kids are old now... 8 and 12. I'm over Halloween. How sad is that? I liked finding them costumes when they were little (we always did coordinating costumes). Now I just don't care anymore. They don't want the costumes I want for them and I don't really like the stuff they do want so I'm over it. I only ever did it for the photo ops anyway.
 I've seriously never liked Halloween and the whole idea of begging for candy.

Last year my girls costumes were homemade or put together using items we have. I made tutu's for Alice in Wonderland and the Mad Hatter. I bought a few Dollar Tree items and made a red yard braid wig for Jessie (Toy Story), and put together a pink and purple outfit with a pouch of pixie dust for Izzie from Jake and The Neverland Pirates.
A few days before Halloween last year, friends of ours invited us to do Lazer Tag with them on Halloween. I had put so much time and effort into costumes, we couldn't do it. But the girls want to do it this year! We'll put the money we would have used to buy candy, and items to make costumes into playing lazer tag. I thought the girls would have forgotten, and a few weeks ago I mentioned something about Halloween, and they all mentioned that we are doing lazer tag, so they didn't forget! It should be fun though!

We haven't thought about costumes yet, but I have already had halloween decorating on my mind. I usually skip right over the fall themed decor and go straight for Halloween..... it's my favorite holiday so I like to enjoy the decorations for a while
