The Wizard of Oz

 Something I have wanted to do for years now is to be the Wizard of Oz cast for a Halloween party. Finally this year Juan was forced good with it!!! Julianna was the cutest Dorothy around! Annelise was a beautiful Glinda the good witch and Dad was scarecrow.  What is Marielle? A munchkin of course!!! Both Dad and Marielle's costume were made from things around the house (the hat I made from Annelise's fabric stash). 

 The good witch is kind to the little munchkin! Her crown was made from an apple juice container. 
My sister used to tell me that I looked just like the bad witch of the West when we were kids. Sadly it is soooooooo true, I really do look like her! 


Dorothy and Toto!




 Every year we try to have friends over to paint pumpkins. Annelise went all out, with a bat pumpkin!
 Halloween Night got kicked off with pumpkin carving!
 See her "knife"? 
. . .And notice Juan and the gloves!

 Julianna chose this funky pumpkin with wart looking bumps!  I thought that she was kidding when she wanted it at the pumpkin patch!?!?! She seriously couldn't have been more proud of her selection!. . .That girl!

 Snow White and the bumble bee!
 Again Julianna is gorgeous as this character too!!! (It couldn't be that she looks just like her mom?;) 
 Annelise wanted to wear her recital costume for trick or treating. She looked beautiful as well! 
 They were both showered with compliments all night! They loved it a little too much!

My spooky entrance! 
This year I had to turn it down a lot for Julianna! She is terrified of all things creepy! Hopefully next year my zombie babies will make a come back?
