HALLOWEEN!!!!!!
Well the costumes came out very well, and the girls pulled off two of the cutest bumblebees I have ever seen. They competed in a costume contest at Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago. They didn't scream or cry at all! Clara clapped on stage and Magda walked all over the place. Neither were scared of the crowd or the noise. They were very cooperative after standing in line for a half hour before the competition even started. Unfortunately, we did not win the contest. We lost to a Chucky....that's right, that creepy doll. Someone dressed their child up in overalls, red hair, and freckles and called in a costume. It honstely looked more like Raggedy Ann. It was a good day all in all. Next year we are bringing the competition, and props seem to give you an edge as well. 
Jen... you are amazing. I have to meet you! I need to learn how to make all these great ribbons and special outfits. You inspire me!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, of course... these two should have one first prize...never seen such adorable bumble bees!
ps...Chucky, really??? What can be creepier?
They are pretty simple to do once you get the hang of it! If you want any bows or headbands for Mara I can make a few and send them with Jessica for the holidays!
