At one function one of my girls was supposed to be a cow, and she showed up in a white sweatsuit that I appliqued black 'cow spots' all over. It also included a tail and a hood with cow ears. I thought it was simple and was embarassed at doing so little, yet in the end it was the fanciest costume of the day. For once in my life, I was ahead of the game!laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174697892947430149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100500218153792090.post-17873557512908142692009-12-16T22:15:38.113+11:002009-12-16T22:15:38.113+11:00How gorgeous!

Not enough fancy dress parties if you ask me- I have very fond memories of being- Jake the Peg (that one got me into the local paper!), Humpty Dumpty (needed to open the double doors at the local hall to get my massive paper mache egg in- oh, and we needed the trailer to cart said costume- a great daughter and dad project, the saucepan man (of Faraway Tree fame) and Pippi Longstocking. Sigh.
