another best dress up day

I know that Halloween is for kids...that post is yet to come. But for now, this will have to do!

We were in AZ for a Halloween and for the first time, we were able to attend the Tyler's Bash! The theme was Hollywood and I'll be honest...we struggled a little. We were desperately trying to 'think outside the box' as well as trying to save a buck. We headed to D.I. and found some fabulous finds. Kim and I decided to be partners and found some gems we couldn't put down for the boys.

So here was our inspiration after finding our costumes...

Here we are in the (scary) making...
And here is the finished product! Yes folks...Barbie and the Diamond Castle.
Then there were the boys.
We just bought these matching outfits for them and let them decide what they could make out of it. They just said, "We're Hollywood".
Here's some of the group. Please notice the award winning 'Johnny' from Karate Kid.

Holy shiny tights. I am always impressed with your dress-up skills, Megs. Val did work the Johhny costume. How fun...wish I could've been in AZ too.

Wow Megan. You guys are more beautiful than the dolls. Seriously. I think you need to give me a workshop on how to do hair, make-up, and clothes.
