Here's what we've been up to...

I have not been hibernating.  This is what I've been up to...

I have spent every waking and sleeping hour for the last three weeks designing a pattern for and making Aubrie's 'Queen Amidala' costume.  It turned out very nicely, if I do say so myself.

I was looking at these photos from  http://www.padawansguide.com/red_invasion_gallery.shtml   to make the pattern.

Keeley didn't want to be anything to do with Star Wars.  She loves the kimono I made for Aubrie a few years ago.

With a twist!

 

Chinese Vampire.

Henry wanted to be Anakin.  Easy, no sewing involved.

Accidentally bought one size too big, maybe I can convince him to wear it for the next few years.   I won't hold my breath.

Jesse the Storm Trooper.  Also no sewing involved.

Andee in her homemade, but not by this mom, Yoda outfit. Purchased on eBay for $5, thank you very much! 

The weather couldn't have been better for our annual trunk-or-treat.  Cool, slight breath of a breeze.  No coats required.

Of course this year Keeley went to bed with a tummy ache.  Hopefully she won't barf at 2 a.m. this year.   I won't hold my breath for that one either.
