Halloween extravaganza


So Michelle and I are both really into Halloween, And though we have been married for 3 octobers, this was the first one that I was not in Iraq for, so we kind of went all out. We were thinking of what to sress up as, and we wanted to include our dog Bella. So we decided to have Bella be Toto and Michelle was going to go as Dorothy from the Wizard of OZ. To complet the ensamble I went as OZ himself. We decided to do the Trunk or treat at the church. I made an emrald city, and we did a Field of Poppies. and had the laptop playing the movie. Michelle made her costume herself. We bought the fabric at the walmart. she also made the vest and coat taht I wore and she did a great job. We bought way to much candy and ended up giving out two or three handfulls to each Kid. The coustumes ended up being awsome and Michelle and bella were a big hit. The three of us had a great time and are glad our hard work paid off.
