The Death Eater, the gymnast, a princess and her dragon

In the past the kids have had a hard time deciding on their Halloween costumes.  This year it was crazy how quickly they not only decided on a costume but they stuck with it and didn't change their minds.  

Avery wanted to be a gymnast so we found a cute outfit and a gold medal for her.  She asked to wear some makeup so I put some blush, mascara and lipstick on her.  When she stepped away from the mirror and looked at me I got emotional.  She looked ten or eleven, definitely not eight and soooooo pretty.  Those big brown eyes, gorgeous long thick hair and nice tan skin, she is so beautiful.  All night I kept looking at her and could envision what she is going to look like as a teenager.  She may not be allowed to date :) :)

Hunter decided to be a death eater from Harry Potter.  He used his wand from his eighth birthday, spray painted a mask from Hobby Lobby and a black robe.  In order to look like a realistic death eater he had to have a "dark mark" so I found some temporary tattoos on amazon for him, they were sweet.

We found both Emma's and Hudson's costumes at the same place and when she found this princess dress she loved it right away.  It was sleeveless so I added some cap sleeves, we spray painted a small tiara and tada!!  She had no trouble playing the the role of royalty and every time she put it on she would straighten her shoulders, ask us to address her as "your highness" and curtsy every five minutes,  She was so cute!!  She looks so big to me in these pictures too.  She definitely does not look like a four year old.  

We found a dragon costume that Hudson absolutely LOVED.  I am pretty sure he wore it everyday from the time we bought it.  I love seeing the costumes all come together, they all looked so adorable.
