I'll be the first to admit it. I don't do Halloween costumes. I see these families with themes, and outstanding costumes, and I just tell my kids up front that I don't have that talent. And you know what? They love me anyways!
All Sariah wanted to be was Rapunzel. I know she was Rapunzel last year, but she got a dress as a gift for her birthday and has been hanging on to it since July! She knew from that moment that this is what she wanted to wear for Halloween. No special shoes, no flowers in the hair - just the dress.
James is a different story. There is a house down the street that has a HUGE blow-up cat on the roof. Every time we left the neighborhood, we always drove by the house to see if the kitty-kat was on and working. Ever since that cat went up, James wanted to be a cat. No ears or tail - all he wanted was whiskers!
So I guess it doesn't really matter afterall that I don't have the desire, time, patience, or talent to put together these amazing costumes. My kids probably wouldn't have worn them anyways!
