Elena wanted to be "seen-dah-wewah" for Halloween...and "Sweeping Dooty", Belle, "Ah-wee-ole", and "Jazz-meen", too...hehe...but we finally settled on Cinderella. She was so excited for the trick-or-treater's she watched for them in the window, swung the door open before they got there with hands full of candy hollering "Happ-eeeee Ha-yo-weeeeen!!" Then she would thank them for coming, follow them out and say "See yew, sooon! Have fun! Good job!!" Too funny! So here's some shots of that! By the way, it was SO cold, we had to put her costume over a dress, tights and extra socks, then bundle her up when we went out!!! Also, by the way, I would have done just about anything to have that costume with THOSE SHOES back in the day! Anyone remember the polyurethane plastic costumes that you tied around your neck that had a printed picture of a dress and a plastic face mask that looked like Cinderella - or Casper, if you were Sal - with the eye holes in it, and you would get the inside all wet with either slobber from candy or your breath condensation from the cold?!?! Times have changed!!!
