Margaret (I heard a school friend call her that today) is a super star in her fabulous owl costume. Success to be repeated next year if I can talk her our of a Star Wars (and Dalton out of being Princess Leia.)
Update: Maggie's teacher made a point to tell me how much she loved her costume, and the woman at the most popular trick-or-treat house asked to take her picture, saying it was the best costume she'd seen all night.

Thu Oct 31 2013 14:00 Homemade Halloween:
May my children never wear mass-produced polyester Halloween costumes. May they never even want to. Those things serve a purpose, but not for us. We enjoy Halloween and putting thought and effort into costumes. Even if I don't sew any other time of year., I will for Halloween.
