Halloween from Pottery Barn Kids


We get REALLY into Halloween. I mean disgustingly into it. We have a party every year and there's always a theme. (We usually start at our house with a bunch of friends & play games & then get a limo into Georgetown... but really? A bar 6 months pregnant? Just not happening.)
So this year I think we might stick to a smaller, family & kid-friendly party... (We might have to do both parties next year...)

Anyway, since I have this kid-friendly party on my mind, I checked out the Pottery Barn Kids catalog & just loved what I was seeing!!! I think (with a LOT of patience!!) you could make this chandelier (In all honesty, this is not a project for me this year... ) But how adorable is it? ($59)
Love this canopy too:
And I'm crazy over all of these cute kid costumes!!! The traditional pumpkin is always adorable. (I think both of these are $29-- not bad at all!)


As we looked through the catalogue last night, Christian said he wasnted to be this lady bug... Daddy vetoed it so I MIGHT have to try to make him a more masculine lady bug costume...


How cute is this little bear?? I love that their costumes are microfleece to keep the kids warm!


We've been into alligators lately: ;)


And finally, here's a pic of me with Christian (AKA "Superbaby") last year:

As Halloween gets closer, I'll have to post pics from our previous Halloweens... They're ridiculous! Have an awesome weekend & talk to you all soon!!!
