trick-or-treat

the most beautiful butterfly i have ever seen. i still can't believe she decided on this costume....remember it was going to be batman or a policeman! she loved all the glitter and paint. i wouldn't be surprised that from this year on her costume will include face painting.

when alan's mom came in and saw her for the first time she said that daddy wasn't going to like the fact that she looks so much older....and sure enough...he came through the door looked at her and immediately had a concerned look on his face, "she looks cute, but i'm not sure i like it." man what is he going to do when she is sixteen? all the doors won't just be locked, but dead bolted, and boards nailed into the door. i have a great idea, maybe we should make a rule.... that any guy who wants to go out with her has to wear a shock collar around his neck, and when he gets within 2-3 feet of her it'll shock him. oh, i just asked kylee if she thought that would be a good idea, "oh yeah, i think we should do that." i think alan might like that. (maybe a little too inhumane?)

anyway, little miss butterfly had a great time trick-or-treating. she was completely exhausted when it was said and done.
....and little miss turtle here, yeah, that lasted all of about two minutes....enough to take a few pictures. she later turned into a pumpkin...a very cute one i might add. this was my first year to attempt to partially make costumes. i made kylee's antennas and tutu(which you can't see, i guess you can't see the antennas either...oops,), and alaina's turtle shell...not too bad for a simple, beginner sewer.

alaina is also on the verge of crawling (we thought it was going to be last night.) donna has predicted within the week, i think i have to agree. she is so close. i'll post video when she does. well, nothin' else new on the homefront. i hope everyone had a fun halloween!
