March of the Penguins

I am a bit late with the Halloween pictures, I know. Give a poor woman a break. I saw a penguin costum earlier this year and knew that Garrin would be adorable in it. When I mentioned the idea to Trevin he wanted to be one too (since it is his fav animal). Instead of spending the 40-50 bucks it would cost to buy both the costums I decided to dig deep down inside and channel my mothers talent and make them myself. This would have been easier if I would have finished them when I had orginally planned and not had to finish them amognst my hell week (last week). But they turned out and I think, rather cutely. I wish I got Garrin on tape because the kid actually waddled perfectly for a penguin.

I was going to make Joe a sweatshirt that said "Director" on the back and a camera that said "March of the Penguins" but since I barely made it home most nights to see the boys before it was bedtime we just went with the cuteness we had.
This was the crew that went trick-or-treating up at my parents neighborhood (where full candy bars can be scored!) My niece Jessi, Garrin, Trevin and Hunter. My dad is the bestest grandpa ever.
