Halloween Costumes

So I have two Halloween costumes that the girls were going to wear...a hot dog, which Lexi had worn her 1st Halloween, and a tiger costume Lexi got from Gram-Eni (Eddie's Mom)...so we were like "Sweet, Halloween will be easy this year!"

But who am I to make things easy?

Halloween is one of the times I get to be creative, especially when I have
2 cute little kids!

That, and I like to have them be unique when people see them... People remember Lexi as a hot dog because we dressed up like hot dog vendors and decorated our car like a hot dog stand... but would anyone have remembered had we NOT done that?
(and served root beer)
Most likely not.

Then we dressed up like Star Wars characters last year, but this was with outfits you couldn't buy at your local Halloween store...My mom and I toiled over our outfits to go with Lexi's Yoda costume (which we did buy) and decorated our car with Ed's variety of Star Wars stuff.
(and served root beer)

This year, with my partner in crime currently out of the picture, I needed these costumes to be unique...so here it is:

Take 2 adorable girls
Add white outfits,
white scarves,
White tights,
White hats,
White shoes,
White wings,
annddd... voila!

PAPER AIRPLANES!
(geez, don't look so excited Lexi...)
(Lexi was upset here because I made her stand up so I could get a picture of the back)

They were a hit at the ward party on Wednesday
(and we made root beer)
More pictures to come!

(I just did another post before this...be sure to take a peek below)
