Y'all...you know what is great about having a baby in October...
You get to use the newborn photo session for Halloween PICTURES!
Winning!
Who: Caroline (3), Annaliese (2), Millicent (new!)
Location: These pictures were taken in our front yard in Bryan, Texas.
Props: I guess you could consider the fallen tree a prop. :) (Please know that I am less than 5 inches away from precious Millicent.)
Clothes: The adorable hats are from
Annabelle Knits. Caroline and Annaliese's shirts and leggings are from Wal-Mart. Millicent's sleeper is from a company called Cotton Seed, however I think they are out of business.
Comments: I love having the girls dress up as animals (I don't know why, I just think it is cute!) and my high school mascot was an owl, so I thought - why not! I looked all over
Pinterest (don't forget to follow us!) and found
this,
this,
this,
this and
this.
I headed to our local fabric store and bought lots of different types
of fabric and some fabric glue and got busy cutting and pasting.
Designer: Katy designed this card, isn't it adorable! Thanks, friend!
Photographer: Sarah Burns of
Butterfly Chaser Photography
Favorite Thing: Everything! :) I love that we used purple, pink and aqua and not the traditional owl colors. I love the hats - and they had dual purpose, the girls wore them all winter. I love that I made the shirts (I am typically not a crafty mom). And I love these three hoots!
I absolutely adore Halloween and I think one of the reasons is the costumes! What's more fun than dressing your babies (or yourself) up?!
And dressing up isn't just for Halloween...it totally can be a Christmas thing too!
Does anyone host Christmas Costume Parties? If so - invite us - and here are a few ideas for you -
Mrs. Clause, a
snowman, a
reindeer or even an
elf! Or bet yet, a
leg?? And don't forget the
Christmas tree!
Cute kiddos in costumes are darling no matter the season -
these girls rock the Christmas tree look! And a kid as an
ornament - LOVE IT!
These tikes look awesome in their Christmas costumes.
And don't forget that a
Nativity play has lots and lots of fun costume options! We think you could even use a Nativity picture as a card, check
this out.
Remember
this darling card! Here's another
card we found that we think you will love! And
this picture on a card would bring big MERRY via laughter! And if you want to WIN funniest card...try
this!
If you have a Christmas card that features a costume, please send it in! We'd love to feature it!
