Costuming the Belly

Last weekend was Halloween and I knew what I wanted to be for a while, so I was excited to put together my costume and have it come together so nicely! I had decided I wanted to be a gypsy fortune teller and let my belly be my crystal ball... so fun! So I went to Goodwill and got a tanktop and skirt and then at a halloween super store got some non-toxic face paint (white and silver) and some bangles and hoop earrings and with a little time and some scissors, I had myself a costume! I even managed to do rags in my own hair... I think the last time I had rags done was when I was 12 and my mom did it for me. Trickier to do it yourself than with help, but still the same curly-hair effect!

Anyways, after all that work, here's how I turned out:


And yes, that's a non-alcoholic beer... it was a fake wheat-beer, even... mmm... my favorite. Not quite the same as the real thing, but hey, it was good enough to have 2!

(I've updated my family blog again with baby updates and what-not... if you're interested :))
Later gators!
TGIF!!!

So funny and very creative! Rubbing white paint on people was probably even funnier!

Yes, bumping into people in their scary black costumes and giving them a nice silvery smudge was kinda fun ;)
