I have spent weeks trying to talk Reagan into being something simple and more original for Halloween, but it didn't work. She had her mind set that she wanted to be Minnie Mouse, so off to the fabric store we went. We finally found the red and white polka dot fabric after searching the store, and now this is how I will be spending the rest of the week, sewing. I thought I had 2 weeks until Halloween, but then I remembered that our ward Halloween party is this Saturday, boy am I in trouble. Wish me luck, and hopefully it will turn out.

Poor Walker wanted to be a robot, and I put Steve in charge of that costume figuring he would do much better than I could. But, Steve has been moonlighting so much this last month that he hasn't had anytime to start the costume. Walker told us last night, "It's all right. I'll just be the Grimm Reaper again." I feel so bad. Two years in a row of making costumes for Reagan, next year she gets to have a simple one and Walker gets to go all out.

Carter is getting to be a hand-me-down costume from Walker, but I don't think he will care much.
