His costume is way better than mine but that's ok. Next year i will plan something much better. Anyways your costume looked amazing - i'm so jealous of you, i've actually never been to the parade of lost souls! by the way did you make the wig using the bum part of old pantihose?(with the leg holes all sewn up) my mum made haley and I some really great wigs like that when we were kids for halloween.Ariel Hunt-Brondwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01474133116407744594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-62301493727422469082008-10-28T08:03:00.000-07:002008-10-28T08:03:00.000-07:00thanks so much jonette! it was SO many layers, and...thanks so much jonette! it was SO many layers, and such a feeling of accomplishment!amy damehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12147616185803446276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313982971250242728.post-34175426659464130112008-10-28T05:44:00.000-07:002008-10-28T05:44:00.000-07:00wow! congratulations on a wonderful piece of work!...wow! congratulations on a wonderful piece of work!
