A panda and a kitty keep Halloween safe, sound, and adorable
Coco was too scared on Halloween to be anything that might make her scared. Witches were out. Ghosts too. So, for the second year in a row it’s the cat. Which for a mother, is a good thing. All I have to do is find the stuff, and she’s set.
I decided Addy was going to be a panda, since he’s cute and cuddly anyway. The ears were simple - a nanny got on that. I painted the bunny tail from an earlier costume (thanks Christy - that tail just keeps on living!). We even managed to find the correct black and white combination for the torso and limbs. I got into trouble with the eyes and nose. My face pen ran out of ink from the last holiday. Addison was not pleased about me rubbing around his eye sockets. I guess I shouldn’t blame him. He didn’t ask for this panda stuff.

So Addison went a little light on the eyes, but overall the kids looked great. I think I could dress them up with unfolded laundry, and they’d still look great. Oh…I guess we already did that. Now there’s a costume idea for next year!

So did you guys go trick or treating, or go to a Halloween party? We t&t’d at possibly the best neighborhood we’d ever seen for it! Kind of nice to have that experience at least once.

No trick or treating is hard to find. Some go to “urbanizations” and hope for people to have bags of candy, they do pretty well. Otherwise, we depend on little parties, which the kids love just as well. It’s usually always pouring here.
