Each year I feel like we can't come up with a better costume idea, and then we do. We wanted to do a joint theme with the Rossittos so I came up with the idea of Alice in Bressi Land. I sent a email to everyone assigning them their characters and I must say we hit it out the park. The kids took no convincing whatsoever. Sophie and Skylar were stoked from day one on it and to much shock Madden LOVED the idea of being a playing card.
It's always such a bummer when Halloween is on a school night, but what can you do. We all still made the best of it and it definitely didn't seem to detour trick or treaters from coming to our neighborhood. It was probably one of the busiest years to date. We passed out over 1200 pieces of candy in about three hours. The kids also didn't do to bad themselves, coming home with two full baskets.
The Queen of Hearts and her Loyal Spade! Skylar really got into character.
"Off with her HEAD!"
Best kids around!
Heading out for trick or treating.
We really had a blast with our theme and is it crazy to say that I already have our costume idea for next year!
You are right! This year you all ROCK!!!!! Paul and I don't know what picture we like the best! You should be in a magazine. Madden's costume suited him so well. And it looked like he was really into it! Skylar's costume was just gorgeous, and Sophie looked just like Alice. Jake--the perfect white rabbit, Eric--a great Mad Hatter. And the lovely ladies were just like Twiddle Dum and Twiddle Dee!! You guys! Super job. So much fun to enjoy your Halloween, just like we were there!
