Our family has had a long tradition of celebrating Halloween---even my parents Louise (above) and LeRoy (below) Long enjoyed the tradition.
We never bought costumes, but usually made them or put them together from what we had.
Leah and her friend Katie as dalmatians.
Princess Rachel and Daddy (the Bum)
Occasionally, we'd buy a few accesories like a hat, wings or masks.
Gypsy Rebecca, Clown Leah and Witch Rachel (above). Below fairy Leah and cat Rachel.
We are very fortunate in St. Louis to have warm enough weather at Halloween, to even wear dancing costumes.
Halloween isn't really my favorite holiday---too many years teaching middle school, I think. I can hardly believe I agreed to substitute three times this week! The Halloween gene must have skipped me! Bah! Humbug!
