Halloween Decisions

We have been thinking really hard about Halloween. Billy and I want Lauren to pick out her own costume. But she seems a little overwhelmed with all the choices. Lauren and I sat down to write a list of possible costumes. A tough task for a 2 1/2 year old.

But we narrowed it down. To a few choices. The Disney princesses, Dorthy (from the Wizard of Oz), and a puppy. She saw a puppy costume that she really likes. I think it was because it had a tail. We just don't know what we are going to do. With Billy still being gone, Lauren and I had some girl talk over breakfast this morning.

It looks like we are leaning towards Belle. Something to do with T-Lo. She saw a picture of when Lola was Belle for Halloween. I think Lola was 10 years old or something! But her costume was so cute. And Lauren just adores her T-Lo.

But then I am a little torn. I like these tutus. And I want to get her one. I thought maybe she could be a fairy. But Lauren wears tutus and stuff like that for her dancing. She wasn't convinced to be a fairy. But I think I am still going to order her one. Because we are going to be in Las Vegas for Halloween. The guys are working a gig. We were there last year too! And "Daddy Warbucks," our boss, planned a trick-or-treat thing for the small kids. It is very cool. Everyone in the Casino gets involved!

So Lauren will still dress up. But that will just be for the little trick-or-treat thing. I think I could order her a black and orange tutu for her to wear during the day. With this cute shirt I bought her. Or I might let her pick the color. We'll have to wait and see.

For now, I need to start looking for a Belle costume. Or ask Lola and Cole to help me out. They are both so creative. And can sew! Some very useful skills at a time like this!
