Our first costume party

Thatcher (and James) got invited to their first costume party. It was Lexi's 2nd brithday, and Lexi is Thatcher's favorite girlfriend. They painted pumpkins, made ghosts, spider cookies, did a bean bag toss, opened presents, and ate cupcakes. Thatcher left with all those things plus a blue pumpkin flashlight and a goody bag full of fun treats. Thatcher was so excited to go and I am pretty sure it exceeded all his expectations. We had a blast.

This is what James was supposed to be. I made this costume before James was crawling...and before his head grew bigger than any baby's head should be. It still is pretty cute on him, but oh well. I guess my shark and fish duo wasn't meant to be (the shark costume isn't really fitting Thatcher that well either).


Here is the lineup of all the cute kiddos in their costumes.
