Originally little E was going to just wear M's costume from two years ago (a blue dinosaur) but I couldn't resist making a second jaguar costume!
And when a local photography friend of mine, J.Sparks Photography offered me one of her Halloween mini sessions? Again I just couldn't resist. She's photographed my kids (and myself!) several times always with super awesome results! Oh and she's also a super awesome mom, so glad to know her! Thanks Jenna!
Seriously, these kids? that smile, I melt!
As for the details on the costumes. I used for the 3rd year now, the Woodland Animal Costume pattern from Running with Scissors! I just added my own tail and ears! Such a versatile suit that can be customized a million ways! I do wish I hate cut out the larger hood size for E, as he apparently has a large head! It worked ok, and they love them! They were being worn around the house for days until they had to get washed!
Happy Halloween everyone!
Oh, dang, those are the two cutest Jaguars I have ever seen! Now I'm off to check out this pattern you speak of - sounds interesting! I decided not to sew costumes this year. Joe is too picky and it is so time-consuming. But all of the amazing blogged costumes are making me feel kind of guilty/regretful about it! These are wonderful.
