Halloween!!! Belle's favorite holiday! This year was a special one for many reasons. First it was Moya's first Halloween, which was cute to see her react to our costumes. It was also special because it was, surprisingly, the first time Belle dressed as Jack Skellington... her all time favorite character from her all time favorite movie. In one aspect I'm surprised she made to age 6 before being Jack but I think it was a good thing because she was old enough to really do it right.
And she looked GREAT! The costume we tried to find online with no luck. We found a few but the only kid ones where on ebay and SOOOO expensive. So Daddy had the idea of getting a mobster outfit and altering it to look like Jack. It was awesome and worked wonderful. We bought the suit and got black gloves which we painted bones on. The tie was foam and foam paint. The rest was just make up. We tried a bald cap but Belle didn't like it. :)
She also wanted me to be Sally, Moya to be Sally's cat, and Gaga was Helgamean (a witch from Nightmare Before Christmas).
Our end result was great I think and it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately Belle started running a bit of a fever before time to trick or treat! So we kept it short. We decided since she wasn't feeling good and it looked like it might rain to first hit the mall. We went to Redmond Town Center for a few stores and then headed back to our neighborhood for a few houses. The rain thankfully stayed away for us until we got home. Then we watched Nightmare Before Christmas and took inventory on the loot. Belle had a great time despite being a little sick. :)
