Halloween

Here is a collage to sum up our Halloween festivities. Amelia was Olivia the pig and Ben was her little bother, Ian. These are characters from the Olivia books by Ian Falconer and later turned into an animated show on Nickelodeon (you can look it up if you still don't know) Amelia's snout got ditched pretty quick and I had a feeling Ben wouldn't last with the ears, so his alternate costume was a soccer boy. We went to the zoo and right when Amelia stepped out of the car a little kid immediately yelled out that she was Olivia. Success!! She came up with the costume idea ears, snout, crown, tutu and all and I had to bring her vision to life and wasn't sure if people would know who she was, but thanks I think to the TV series, she was well recognized and it made her beam. We have loads of candy to last...1....2.....maybe.........we'll see!!! Hope everyone had a good Halloween.
