I've never really thought about it before, but I guess I should have known I'd be the family-theme-halloween-costume type. It's got just the right amount of cheesiness to suit my personality.A $3 find at a yard sale (thanks Mimi) brought the big red M&M costume into our family. Abby hasn't really wanted to take it off since September, so it seemed like a no-brainer to let her wear it for Halloween. Spike was our little Peanut long before we named him Caleb, so I crafted a blue costume for him to match. A little homegrown screen printing with fabric paint, an iron and some freezer paper yielded a green and a yellow M each for mom and dad, and voilà! Suddenly we became the family that melts in your mouth, not in your hands. (Abby, for her part, was a great sport about letting me spray her curls red, and was quite entertained by "mommy's hair green!")
Personally, I think this picture has excellent Christmas Card '09 potential.
