Halloween was so much fun this year! Cameron always loves getting dressed up and it was Callie's first Halloween. Trick or Treat night is usually a different night in Blanchester (my hometown) than it is in our neighborhood, so we always hit both! Plus we have a Trunk N Treat at our church, so Cameron always has way more candy than we can ever eat!
Karen (Grandma) has made most of Cameron's costumes and has always done an awesome job! Cameron always gets a lot of compliments on his costumes because Grandma always goes above and beyond to make sure that they are very special! This year was no different.
Cameron provided Grandma with a bit of a challenge this year. He has recently become interested in G.I. Joe and has started collecting the action figures. Grandma also had all of Brandon's G.I. Joe figures and vehicles from when he was a kid and sent them out for Cameron. He plays with the stuff for hours! Anyway, his favorite character is Snake Eyes. So, guess what he wanted to be? Grandma did an awesome job on the costume and even made muscles which was of course his favorite part :)
Several months ago, I found some adorable glittery red shoes at Once Upon A Child for Callie. Whenever she has worn them, people have made so many comments about her "Dorothy shoes" which is where I got the idea to dress her up as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz. Of course Grandma made a more gorgeous costume than I could have imagined complete with a matching bow, socks, and pacifier clip!
We are so blessed to have such a wonderful Grandma/Mom/Mother-in-law who loves her grandkids so much! Every year the costumes fit perfectly even though she's in Colorado and cannot measure the kids herself...she has to rely on Brandon and I for that and we really have no clue what we're doing :) When the package comes every year Cameron always gets extremely excited! There are always Halloween pajamas in the package, too :) Thanks so much Grandma...YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
