Halloween 2014

I asked Evie what she wanted to be for Halloween this year. I honestly expected her to say Elsa or a ballerina rock star princess cheerleader. But to our (pleasant) surprise, she confidently replied, "a purple super hero". I gave her a few days to see if she would change her mind, but she stuck to the super hero theme. 
So...on Saturday, Ocotber 18th (plenty of time before Halloween) I went to Hobby Lobby and got all stuff to create some sort of purple and yellow super hero costumes. I started on them at about 7:00pm Saturday night. 

I finished the yellow costume and started on the purple one, intending to finish it Sunday. However, Miss Olivia decided to come early Sunday morning and delayed progress a bit.  
But have no fear, they were finished in time and the dinamic duo was here to save the day! They were ready in time for Halloween! 
Evie was super excited to wear her costume to school. 

And so was Mavery!

Getting ready to do some Trick or Treating with Daddy, Mommy and Pops. They were slightly excited. 

It was a fun Halloween. I was pleased with their costume choices. Now we just need to "finish off" all the candy!!
