Mindy was Pinkalicious (character in a book who eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink!) this year. Pinkalicious is one of the girls' favorite books-we read it all the time! Mindy has been waiting since September to wear pink make-up and have pink hair! She had so much fun trick or treating. She was so excited and ran from house to house helping Makayla along the way. She even waited for Makayla to get to the door before she would knock. No one had any idea who she was. In fact, one lady asked: "Who are you?" and she confidently replied: "Mindy!"
Makayla had plans to be Ariel this year. Aunt Judy sent a cute Ariel costume and we bought some red hair spray for her too. On Halloween morning I fixed her bangs so cute like Ariel and then sprayed her hair red. She looked adorable and she LOVED her hair! Her Ariel costume was a little too long so she kept tripping on it all morning. Then, she had a little accident in her costume -which sometimes happens when you are newly potty trained and wearing tights :)-so I put her in the tub to get the red out of her hair (which took 3 times to wash and rinse and it still had a pink tint) and convinced her to be Rapunzel. Granny bought Mindy a Rapunzel wig during the summer so we put her cute purple dress on and her wig and called it good! As I was putting her tights on she said "Mom, Rapunzel doesn't wear tights!!". She hated wearing the wig so I told her she only had to wear it while we were trick or treating. The moment we headed to the car to be done for the night she pulled it off! Because of the darkness, lots of people passing us asked if the wig was her real hair :) she looked so stinkin cute!
Then there is our little miss Mia baby......Thanks to Aunt Judy she was a cute little ladybug! It was perfect-she looked so cute and it kept her nice and warm! While the girls ran around getting their candy Mia was happily being pushed in her stroller. Monte said she had to wait until she could walk before she could trick or treat with the girls....Which is probably a good thing because Mindy and Makayla got a ton of candy without her help ;)
