Our first Halloween in our new neighborhood was fun. I took Dani this year. My neighbors kept telling me that our neighborhood gets hit up a lot during Halloween. It was one of the first subdivisions that was built here so for a lot of people it is a tradition. There were quite a lot of people but they all said that there wasn't nearly as many as there usually are. I'm OK with it being 'quiet'.
To carry on the tradition of me making Dani a costume every year, she went as Sleeping Beauty. Last year she was Belle and the pattern I had also had a Sleeping Beauty. So I didn't have to buy a new pattern. And I didn't have to make it big enough to fit over snowpants. In fact, I work a tank top and shorts, but I am also quite comfortable in Florida's cooler temps where the locals are freezing thier butts off.
I splurged on the whole experience and even did Dani's makeup. She has been so excited for the holidays to come.
Here is a picture taken after we came back. Dani wanted to help Daddy pass out candy.
Thanks for your support regarding my cycle. I look at this picture and I wonder, "How can I not be happy with this?" But I am happy. I just miss who's missing.

Great pictures! I hadn't thought about trick-or-treating in Alaska, but yeah, I can imagine it would be darn cold.
First of all Dani is GORGEOUS in that costume! And secondly... I can't believe you made it! What a good mom you are. I have never attempted to make a costume!
