Halloween in three parts
Being the best mom ever, I made my daughters Halloween costume this year. With a purchased long black wig and fabric I had on hand, Jasmine and I decided that Pricess Jasmine from Alladin would be a no-brainer. Little did I realize…
Friday. She had a costume party at her day camp. I realized that while the Princess Jasmine costume was okay to walk around in gathering candy, it was a little too skimpy for a day playing at camp. What to do! With three tiara’s and a tub full of dress up clothes, one can always pull a princess costume together.
One crisis averted.
Saturday. With gymnastics class in the morning and a Halloween festival at the parks & rec right after, I knew she would need something that could easily fit over her clothes and her father could put together on the fly. So I converted a black velvet skirt into a witches outfit complete with hat and caplet.
Two crisis’ averted.
Sunday. Finally it is Halloween and we can put the Princess Jasmine costume on. I then realize that an exposed belly will be too cold for her out in the evening. Soooo another last minute adjustment and out the door she goes.
Next year she’s going as a ghost.
