Here are my Halloween ghouls. Tyler had his heart set on being a ninja this year. This was his 2nd choice costume, but it turned out to be so much better than the original one he picked out (and it was 1/2 as much). We added the swords, and I was impressed he never once pulled them out tonight. He was very happy with his costume. Lots of boys at the zoo told him it was cool.Danielle is Rapunzel - not the
Disney character from the movie, but Rapunzel from the story. She found this costume idea in an old issue of Family Fun. We had a lot of fun making it, especially the hair. Everything came together very nicely, and she is really proud of it. She gave me permission to post these pictures because I promised no one from school would be checking my blog. A lot of moms complimented her costume.

We finished our evening with a late dinner at a favorite local Chinese restaurant. We had such a nice evening together!

The costumes came out great!! What fun.
We like both costumes a lot :) even though Caleb isn't sure what a ninja is - I am curious as to how much yarn it took to make Danielle's wig.
We used extra bulky yarn. I think we ended up using 5 skeins, but I think one of them was a return that had been used. :( The hair was definitely the most expensive part of the costume, but it was a lot of fun to make, too.
I guess it's good you have an extra costume event this weekend to get lots of wear out of it!
