Halloween 2009

Halloween this year was really fun. We have never done a family theme before and the kids loved it. They were so excited that Mark and I dressed up with them and that all our costumes went together. Zina especially liked it because the whole idea started because she was determined to be Princess Tiger Lily.

Princess Tiger Lily & Peter Pan. People often thought that she was Pocahontas and he was Robin Hood until they saw the whole family together. Then they loved us!
Music Makers party friday morning. Wilson with a whole bunch of cute girls. :) We also got to go to a costume party friday night. Thanks Steph! It was seriously a lot of fun especially because of the NO KIDS!! :)
I just thought they were SO incredibly cute. :) Love these two.
This is what we did Thursday morning. I built the kids a fort and they ate all their candy while I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. My house had been seriously neglected due to the making of costumes...and now it's dirty again. :)

Captain Hook and Peter Pan sword fighting.
The whole family! Made with love by yours truly. :)
The trunk or treat was surprisingly chilly. I think they are still adorable.
Both kids really got into the trick/trunk or treating. Zina was giggling in between trunks she was having so much fun and now when we mention candy Wilson's eyes light up and he starts to get excited too.

For some reason to me that Peter Pan costume just suits Wilson! You all look so cute- except mark looks a little creepish in that wig!

awesome costumes!! you did a great job! it's funny because we were characters from peter pan too. well minus brian. lately dalia has given us new names: she is peter pan, tes is tinkerbell, i'm wendy, and brian is captain hook. she calls us all by our new names all the time, even in prayers. so when halloween was coming around i decided we would dress up as our characters. however, my wendy nighty is not as cute as your (it's not even blue, i just bought a nighty at the thrift store) and brian decided not to be captain hook. oh well, i'm glad your family did. your captain hook costume was awesome! and your family looks so cute in your peter pan get up. happy halloween!
