Someone on a mothering board I'm on posted pics from a year or two ago of her husband dressed as Willie Wonka and all the kids, including the tiny baby, dressed as Oopma Loompas. It was the most adorable thing ever.
someone suggested that, but he decided on that costume after all the kids' were figured out... plus, like I said, I'm trying to work with stuff I already have, can borrow, or can get at the thrift store.
I actually really like the idea of themed costumes, but I don't know that it'll ever happen unless my kids decide they really, really want to do it one year, and they all agree.
First thing I thought of when you mentioned the purple suit was A PIMP. Yup. Your bro can be a pimp ;)
We found the MOST ADORABLE little lion costume for Ellie. We both died, and badsede decided that we need to buy her a pin-on tail for use in everyday life ;)
lol. we call it his pimp suit, but apparently he saw some video game? or movie? where Loki (the brother of Thor) is wearing a purple suit with a red tie. so that is what he wants to be. of course, no one will know what he is and will ask him what the heck, but I think the distinct lack of *bling* will discourage any guesses for pimp.
I can't wait to post pics :) one year we did a little photo shoot like 2 weeks before halloween. I'd do that again (if it stops raining every day! took them outside in the front lawn.) but I still have a few details to put together. one being that my coustume is still hiding with all my sister's junk in storage, and she needs to dig it out for me :P
Damian is probably going to end up as a fireman because I have everything for it plus a little raincoat hat that looks like a fire hat. I don't really like the baby costumes I've seen plus he would look ridiculous as a bumble bee or a pee pod because he's so stinking huge.
David might be a Harley Davidson biker, and I still am clueless as to what I could dress up as. My mom has a middle eastern costume so maybe I'll be Cleopatra, but I say ever year that I DON'T want to be her...
Or we'll decide to do something else entirely. I'm so undecided. :P
