Claire Bear's Hair is Everywhere!
There have been several requests from relatives to not only see Claire's hair down, but to see what other magic it holds. So without further ado, here is Claire in all her hairy glory:
The just-out-of-my-bath look
The Old Man Comb-Over
The Donald Trump look
Alfalfa from The Little Rascals
The Baby Faux Hawk
(AKA Uncle Kurt)
Hair actually done.

Halloween!
Sorry about the delay in posting Halloween pics. Every year at Halloween someone is sick. This year was my turn. Just a cold, but it is my excuse for being slow.
Halloween was great fun this year. The girls came up with the ideas for their costumes all on their own.
Syd was a Midnight Fairy. I think she was most excited about getting to wear make-up and put glitter in her hair. Aunt Becca prompted the pose. Very cute. I especially liked the boots.
Brynny was an Angel Kitty. She wore a angel dress and wings, with a black cat tail hooked to the back. She wanted whiskers and a little nose, but no kitty ears. Very cute, actually. I love that this girl has a mind of her own. She was also very excited about glitter in her hair.
Our Claire Bear was a cute piggy, complete with a curly tail. Poor kid. Her sisters' got to be fairies and angels and she got stuck with the pig outfit. Sorry honey, that is what you get if mom gets to pick. :)
We went Trick-or-Treating around the neighborhood and were joined at different points by Grandma Leslie, Grandma Julie, Aunt Becca, James, Aunt Ashley, and Uncle Jon. The weather was so nice and warm, and we had tons of fun. The neighbors were even cooking hot dogs and giving them out along with donuts. How cool is that?
We wore our sweet little Claire out. She was asleep by the time we got home.
After we got home, we were joined by Bonnie and Kurt(dressed as Kurt and Strongbad). We ate dinner (garlic soup and witch's fingers), checked out the loot, gaagaaed over the baby, and put kids to bed. Then we watched Tremors which go a few jumps out of Becca and Bonnie and had me giggling like crazy.
Derek, Becca, and James were the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. So clever. Hasn't James grown so much lately? :) He was actually asleep from excitement overload. Jon did a stand-in for him.
What a fun night! Now I am trying to hide candy from myself, ward off too-much-candy barfing (we have had 2 close calls so far), and get ready for candy-making season. Ummm... does all of that seem a little messed up to anyone else?
We hope you all had a great Halloween!
