Our preschool field trip was to Krispy Kreme in our costumes last week. They weren't actually making doughnuts when we showed up so the manager brought out some raw dough for the kids to play with and then gave them a free doughnut- which was probably just about right for their attention span.
Then we went trick or treating with our family and the Tonks. I was surprised at how well Evie took to trick or treating. She would tramp right across their lawns (shortest possible route to the candy) all by her herself! Then of course we took them to see my grandparents at the end of the night in keeping with tradition.
We were going to be a whole family of Indians so I made my dress and my mom and I started making Doug's shirt (I had already found Indian chaps at Goodwill- score!) and then Doug said he refused to wear the dark makeup! You can't have a white, blond-haired, blue-eyed Indian!! So I bought sunless tanning thinking it would be easier to keep on the kids anyway and he refused to wear that too. So, in the end I only wore my costume to Krispy Kreme. For his defection this year I promised to make him wear tights for the next... What do you think- Nutcracker...? Robin Hood...?

those are the cutest costumes ever! You are so creative! Oh, and Krispy Kreme, that's my kind of field trip! Nice of them to give a free donut!
i love the costumes. i am going to need some serious help when we have kids. i am not that creative when it comes to costumes... i wish i was! go you! and you look super cute in yours!
I can't understand how Doug wouldn't want to play the part of Chief Indian to those CUTE little Injuns! You weren't trying to make him wear a loincloth or anything, uh right? So for Doug next year (if the very good nutcracker idea doesn't pan out), I seem to recall a post Michelle did about Superman and the whole underwear on the outside of the tights phenomenon. There is some potential there.
Looks like fun! Those are some great costumes! I can't believe Doug woudn't dress up!
I love the Indian costumes! Evie's is my favorite!
Adrianna, I was just catching up on the blogs, yours included. I just have to say, you're my hero!
Robin Hood...and make him sing the song, "We're Men, We're men in tights..."
hey girl! SUCH cute pics! those indian costumes are way cool. i need to get more creative. :) um, maybe next year. anyway, looks like a super fun feildtrip! doesn't get much better than the krispy creme!
howz baby doin? are you gettting any sleep these days? or is that just a stupid question?
Great costumes! (And I know you're not responsible for that little skunk, but I loved it, too!)
I like the Superman idea for Doug... maybe you could invent a superhero for him to be!
I say The scarecrow from The wizard of oz. straw and tights, either that or the tin man. The silver face paint would be great and you already have munchkins.
