About a month ago Eli decided he wanted to be Po, the Kung Fu panda for Halloween. Since the movie hasn't been out in a few years there is zero out costume-wise. So, I started thinking maybe E would want to be a dragon since Po is the "dragon warrior ". Haha.
He was an adorable dragon and even won "scariest" in the 1-3 yo category at our neighborhood's party.
Honestly, I don't think the completion was very fierce, but we were all still excited.
The next day we broke down and bought a panda costume and added shorts for the kung fu effect.
Also adorable. And believe me I am packing up all these costumes. Hannah can be a panda in a couple of years too.
Since Eli was Po he decided Hannah should be Tigris (Po's friend and tiger on the movie). Sweet, huh?
Hannah, in her go-with-the-flow manner adapted to the tiger costume with ease.
Her costume was a lot easier to find.
We even got our picture with Olaf at Boo at the zoo.
Fun at the onset, very scary as we got closer and Eli said "he's big!" And stopped moving.
Another thing that made Hallo-week fun was Mawmaw coming to town! She initially came because we had lots of appointments and Keith was going out of town but it was fun that it coincided with Halloween.
Her visits bless me because both kids warm up to her quickly, especially Eli. He could probably play with her all day if she didn't get tired. It's fun to watch.
Sweet skeleton Hannah.
On Halloween night Eli decided he wanted to be Po (it is always a discussion since there are 2 to choose from) and I dressed Hannah as a giraffe (Eli's 1st Halloween costume) because it was warmer.
Trick or treating was fun but handing out candy was a blast. Eli had so much fun seeing other kids costumes and giving them candy. He even got to stay up late.
Having kids has its ups and downs, sometimes by the minute, but Halloween is completely an "up". I love this season and love my cute characters.
