For the past three Halloweens we have taken Violet to my Aunt TeeTee's house for Beggar's Night. She only lives a mile and a half away, but our neighborhoods are worlds apart. At the Heathen House you get homeless, costume-less adults begging for candy. At TeeTee's house you get flocks of adorable supervised children in well-made costumes. Also, TeeTee's neighborhood has a theme. All of the streets have names like Buckingham and Devonshire and the houses are built to match. It's like walking through a fairy tale. My favorite house has a turret and a witch weather vane. I pine for this house. I long to snatch it up in a tragic foreclosure...but, I digress.
Violet has been Wonder Woman around our house for two months now. After all the rehearsal, the big night finally came and she made it about an hour out on the street. She looked fabulous while it lasted. She was ready to stop the begging, but she was not ready to give up the costume. I spent 20 minutes locked in battle with a squirming, screaming Wonder Woman who did not wish to be stripped of her powers or her tights. If I looked this cute I wouldn't want to give it up either!

I love wonder woman
ReplyDeleteVery cute costume. I love the pose in the second photo.
ReplyDeleteWhy bother taking off the costume? Might as well get some use out of it! Last year, mine wore her Glinda costume until it was in tatters.
ReplyDeleteI let her wear it as much as she likes, but it is getting to be too small already and it offers so little coverage in the posterior region that she needs to layer and it then the potty becomes an issue...blah, blah, blah...we are on the look out for clearance rack replacements.
