HALLOWEEN
Caroline's Halloween costume comes with a long story. I had originally ordered her a Dorothy costume, but somehow with all the chaos and all of the boxes that have been delivered to our house (early online Christmas shopping) it was lost. That is when Mom and I went on a search for a new costume (the bumblebee costume...see earlier post). When Halloween approached I really didn't want to dress her up in the same costume (that would be no fun)...so I went on a search of the house for Dorothy again, but no luck. At 4:00 on Halloween I decided that she would either be the bumblebee or a VT cheerleader because Dad and Melissa had brought her back one of those outfits from a ballgame. I didn't have any tennis shoes to go with the cheerleader and I really wanted one of the face tatoos to complete the costume....no luck finding one. Then Mom just happened to go into the bank and Kim Williams said that she had a hand made Dorothy costume that her daughter wore when she was little....probably about 15-18 years ago and she could put her hands on it in just a few minutes. We already had the shoes and accessories because it was what we had originally planned. Our fabulous babysitter braided Caroline's hair for a complete finished look. Thanks, Mom, Kim, and Toot! She really didn't want to pose for pictures so the facial expression is not the best, but you get the idea. That is Toto or as Caroline would say Lexi in the Basket!
