Halloween Costume, Mama Imelda, CHECK! | Week 35 | #52wonderfilledweeks
Eight weeks...EIGHT WEEKS from today we will be hosting our first "kid" birthday party! Eep! Followed by our first Day of the Dead/Wonder's Bday party. We are so excited but know that there is plenty to do. P's basically a Halloween baby and we've dressed up pretty much since she arrived. Growing up we (my family and Super's) went all out for Halloween...no store bought costumes, handmade, and the details mattered. We all had a blast figuring out what we wanted to be. My sister and I even set up a scary scene with shadows and a white sheet one year in our front room. We just loved the fun of everything, and then in 1999 my sister was killed in a freak car accident and I put all my Halloween stuff away...for 14 years...and then P arrived. She came 14 years to the day that my sister had her accident and it was like I could sort of breath again. It's given us the go ahead to celebrate our once loved holiday, free from guilt. So we dress...
