This was Halloween two years ago. Lately I haven't been taking very many pictures so the pickings were a bit slim for this week. This is Anakin Skywalker, a penguin, a snow princess and an elephant.
This elephant costume was worn but three different children then I passed it along to a friend who may or may not have used it this year. I love how cozy and cute it is!
Same things with the penguin. Three of my children and my nephew all used the costume and when it gets too small I will pass it along. Might as well get as much use out of costumes as you can!
And a rare photo that I am actually in too! Since most pictures are taken by me I seem to be in very few of my own pictures. I do get some from friends and family so that I can prove I was there too and not just behind the camera, but not too often.

Loved the penguin!! Lol!
ReplyDeleteGreat costumes! My son still asks about Halloween. I rarely get in pictures myself as I'm always the one behind the camera.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to see halloween in February! They're so cute in all their costumes :)
ReplyDeleteThose are really cute pictures. I adore penguins :-)
ReplyDeleteAdorable shots! I think it's a great idea to recycle the costumes to other kids...get more fun out of them that way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
I don't many photos either since I am also the usual one behind the camera. Very cute costumes. We recycle ours too. I get a kick seeing the younger kids in costumes my older ones wore.
ReplyDeleteI loved making Halloween costumes for my kids when they were little. The most complicated was a Little Mermaid costume for my daughter that had a tail that flipped up on the side.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful memories!
ReplyDeleteThat little elephant costume is so adorable! We reused costumes in my family when I was growing up too.
ReplyDeleteSo much fun! I love checking out the kids at Halloween.
ReplyDeleteOh, how cute! I think the little elephant is my favorite--but they're all good.

The costumes are terrific and your kids look so adorable!! We always got a lot of mileage out of costumes too. They often ended up in the toy box for dress up after Halloween. And photos are the same at my house. I'm always taking them and am rarely in them!
ReplyDeleteGreat costumes! I love the elephant.
