One tried the guilt trip, "I am not dressing up", didn't work. These children are the ones with imagination so one wore what she wore last year, the 5 year old wore his spiderman dress up outfit, the 8 year old cut a shirt wore a hat and we dabbed brown eyeliner on his face to make "Larry the Cable Guy" (which won our church fall fest contest), the 10 year old put on a suit, barrowed a kanga hat from Dad and called himself a "wedding crasher" (even though he didn't know what that exactly was) and I did spend $6 at Walgreens for a ladybug costume. We didn't even buy candy, since we are always out trick or treating we miss everybody anyways. The children just get used to getting things when they don't really need them and when in a crunch (financially) they can made do, just like parents have to do sometimes.Heather Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928993411244310851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6045969021276344917.post-52571174122718425372007-11-04T21:56:00.000-08:002007-11-04T21:56:00.000-08:00My mom bought their costumes this year .
