Toys Will Be Toys

The costumes are starting to come together.
I'll give you 3 guesses what my crew is going to be for Halloween this year.

Landen's vest fitting
Nope.  Not the Lone Ranger.

This goes on Abbey.
But, she will not be a lady matador.

Contraband cowboy boots.  Way too big for the boy, but he loves them...so wear them he will!

Guesses??
As Layne would say, we are going "Toy Story Free!"
Landen will be sporting Woody.  What more fun could you have in a costume.  A cowboy hat, popping guns, and dad's cowboy boots.

Abbey is going to be Jessie.  Sassy, super chatty, ear-to-ear grinning.  I know.  We couldn't have made a better match.  No acting needed for this character!  Abbey is super detail-oriented, so I'll be working overtime to make sure everything is in place.  She has watched the movie twice and continually brings me the DVD jacket to show me exactly what her outfit should look like.

Layne is...Layne is...I'm working on this one.  There aren't that many choices for girl characters from the movie.  We thought Little Bo Peep would be super cute, but it is not coming together.  I even had a friend lend me some pioneer outfits and a bonnet that we were sure could work, but all are way too big for her.  I tried to re-fasion an older dress of Abbey's, but my skills are seriously lacking.  She will be a toy.  It will be a surprise.  For all of us.
