Here I am with my brother, Chris. He is 4 and I am 8 months.
You know what I liked about costumes back in the day, you made them. And you made them from whatever you could find. No trips to Walmart. Mom rummaged through her stuff then sat at a sewing machine.
Those were the easy times, weren't they!

That is just darling!
Okay, is it me, or is your baby your MINI ME????
I love that picture, and yes, I know what you mean about the times when we made our costumes from whatever we had at home! I'm trying to convince my two younger sons to do it!!!
Oh you were an adorable baby. Love your eyes...
Precious..
cute and adorable baby, you are blessed to have this photo. Mine I didn't have it...
awwww soooo lovely and cute! Love their costumes and their faces are just so happy!
Come and Meet my teenage friends.
I love how they are looking at you!
Wanna know my first time?
Carin, so cute! That actually looks like your youngest sitting there! Myrna
Wow those could be your boys. I almost thought it was a picture of your boys. Crazy how similar you both look to your boys. CUTE picture.
I thought it was little man sitting there at first.
My mom would go all out making a costume for her and dad. In our small town Halloween was a HUGE deal. They had a costume dance and you'd park 3 miles away so no one would see what vehicle you got out of. And at the end of the night they gave cash to the winner.
That one year my mom was an old man. She wouldn't leave my grandma (who wasn't dressed up) alone. She'd walk up and rub her area on gma and gma would holler get away from me you old nasty man (she'd say it in German) Then mom even had a fake Mr. Wiggly that she'd flash at Gma. Mom won that year. I wish I would have been old enough to see it.
I love that your Flashback Fridays take me down memory lane! This is one of my favorite all time photos for you and your big bro. And the resemblance between you and little man....uncanny!
This reminds me of the time I was a Fairy-Princess-Bride... or another time when I was clown-bum! No Disney Princesses at our house then! :)
HOW CUTE ARE YOU!!! Cute I say!
So what did you make your kids this year? Just had to give you a bad time..but watch it back fire...you probably did sew their costumes, huh? Like I said...you are amazing!
Awww! What a VERY cute picture! :-D I wanna post old halloween pix now!
I love when you do the flashbacks, I love the yellow carpet we had some like that too. Good times!
Okay, that is super cute! That pumpkin is bigger than you! I love your Indian brother and your adoring gaze is just perfect...too cute!
Homemade costumes are the BEST! :)
In 75 (I think) you were a pumpkin - another cosutme made by your mother - and your were super cute. A green hat, green tights and a pumpkin middle. Really cute.
Oh the memories...

I do remember those days...this year that is what I told me boys...they would wear what they found..no buying them!
Love the plastic pumpkin...still in style!
The picture is really awesome. You were pretty as you are now.
