Jennifer says
September 5, 2013 at 11:49 amNadine — I want to dress up like Audrey Hepburn!!! Forget the kids 😉

Jennifer says
September 17, 2013 at 5:56 pmI’m usually so busy on the kids I don’t get to a costume for me :-/ But really the fun is seeing how excited all of the kids are.

September 13, 2013 at 1:03 pmOh my goodness! I could just hug all these little kids up in those adorable costumes. Makes me wish my kids were little again. Thanks for sharing at Throwback Thursday!!

September 17, 2013 at 4:53 pmI do love all of the Halloween costumes. That’s half the fun!

September 26, 2013 at 8:40 amThese are cute, I like the Hot Air Balloon costume but it looks like it might be difficult to wear to school. A couple of years my son just wore his football uniform and my daughter wore her cheerleader uniform.
Jennifer says
September 27, 2013 at 6:15 pmYeah, I do think the hot air balloon would be hard to wear to school. But it would be cute to go trick or treating in.
Michelle says

Thank you so much for sharing these with me on #CraftyOctober at The Purple Pumpkin Blog! ^_^

October 6, 2014 at 10:46 amI am not very creative and I am thankful that you post these amazing costumes. The Audrey Hepburn costume is beautiful and hilarious at the same time. What fun for adults and kids.
Jennifer says
October 6, 2014 at 2:15 pmI totally want to wear that Audrey Hepburn costume myself!!!!

Scheduled to share this!

Steph says
September 14, 2015 at 10:08 amSuch cute ideas here! We just started talking about what everyone wants to dress up in this year – my 4 year old still doesn’t quite get it…but I’m hoping we come up with something as fun and creative as these!
Jennifer Hughes says
September 14, 2015 at 11:00 amAwww. that’s such a cute age, isn’t it 🙂
Audrey says
September 14, 2015 at 2:28 pmMine hasn’t made up his mind yet what he wants to be. I am pushing for wearing his Karate uniform since he only wants to do 5-6 houses and then come home and eat the candy.
Thanks for sharing on the #HomeMattersParty. I hope you will join us again next week.
