Ward Halloween Party

Let me just start this post by saying that I love my Silhouette craft cutter. It is awesome! I use it almost every day, seriously. It hooks up to my computer and cuts whatever I design. You will see how that relates to the ward Halloween party in the next paragraph. That being said, we had a super fun time at our ward Halloween party and trunk-or-treat last night.

Our costumes actually had a theme this year-Alice in Wonderland. It all started with Natalie's Alice costume. Then Natalie told Rob that she wanted him to be the Mad Hatter, so he ordered a hat, and already had the rest-his jacket was $1.44 and his pants were .50 I think. I made Blake's little stopwatch and bunny ears and pinned them on a white crocheted hat that he already had-it was newborn size, so it's obviously too small, but it worked. And then I cut vinyl on my wonderful Silhouette machine and stuck it on Rob's white t-shirt and went as the ace of spades. So fun.

Natalie got a cute princess Old Maid card game amongst mounds of candy. Her first remark after trunk-or-treating was, "Can we play my card game when we get home?" Crazy girl. She could care less about the sugar. Oh well, all the more for me :)

Seriously such a fun idea! I love making our own costumes, and having them coordinate! We thought about doing Alice in Wonderland too, only Chance and I being Tweedle Dee and Dum, with my bulging belly! We went a different route though. You guys look so cute
