Yes I know it is the day before Thanksgiving but I have not posted pics from Halloween. We had a spooky good time. We had the ward trunk or treat the day before and on Halloween we went trick or treating with our good friends. The kids got gobs of candy. At least enough to pay for a dentists trip to Hawaii.
Jillian was Atalanta a Greek Princess/ Goddess. A couple of her friends decided they wanted to be Greek goddesses. I tried to convince Jillian she should be Pippi Longstocking but the girl was adamant about it. So we researched the goddesses and came across Atalanta and the Three Golden Apples. To make a long myth short she was a know as the fastest sprinter of her time, she was the goddess of the hunt. We figured because Jillian is speedy and sporty this goddess would be a good fit. I made the costume out of a women's size 18 dress from Goodwill that I bought for $1. The belt was also a dollar and spray painted gold. The apples were spray painted as well. We made here bow and arrow out of twigs from our tree. She looked fabulous and authentic. If I had a better camera we might have gotten better pictures.
The boys were easy. Bradley wanted to be a ninja. We borrow a costume from my sister Christy. I convince Baden to use the transformer costume we already had. Yeah for easy costumes.
We had a great time!
