Happy Halloween!

For Halloween this year, Tobin had planned to be a “scary wolf” many months in advance. Enough time to discover an eccentric children’s line of furry hats with integrated paws, and we got him the “wolf” model for his birthday. Inspired by Tobin’s furry plans, Mika wanted to be a cat again, but this time she insisted on being a “white princess kitty – with crown!” – scary on a whole different level. I took the pattern off of Tobin’s wolf hat, and made a replica out of white fake fur, fully lined like the original. The crown was a bachelorette tiara from the party store (sans veil). Both kids got matching tails on a belt, and off they went trick-or-treating until well after sunset…
