Halloween 2013

wizard of oz costumes


Wow, mom. Take enough pictures? I went kind of crazy with the camera this morning. Enthusiasm from the kids wore down to exasperation by the end. But hey, they won't be tiny and cute forever.


We followed the sidewalk on trash day yellow brick road to the forest (sweet little hug: staged by mom)

Dorothy the witch slayer and her ferocious lion friend showed courage and style

They danced and avoided leaves being thrown from the aggressive trees.

Somewhere along the way, our cowardly lion handed her mane and tail to her mommy. Suddenly she looked like a 70's era chicken legged track star.

  1. Gorgeous pictures and little girls! I love that she has striped tights to go with her ruby slippers. Part Dorthy, part Wicked Witch of the North!

  2. Oh my gosh you totally crack me up! And your kids? They are just hilarious, and very, very cute! Love the photography - if only I could capture those types of images with my little one. I think I should have made photography a daily occurrence from a young age so she'd just be used to it and not run at the sight of an incoming lens :)
