Halloween 2012

Choosing a Halloween costume for Tenn was tough this year. I ended up making her costume. There weren't any costumes that I could have bought that would have worked with her double leg casts...shocking, right?

She's been going to school in her wagon, padded with pillows (the beanbag got the boot). So, I had to figure that into the costume equation as well. I made some pretty butterfly wings that would simply lay behind her.

Tennyson's school had a Trunk or Treat event in the morning, and we went to see Tenn and all of her classmates in their adorable costumes. Her speech therapist had a Big Mac button with a pumpkin picture on it. When Tennyson hit it with her hand it said, "trick-or-treat". I loved that she had a "voice" to participate like all the other kids.

Later in the evening we went trick or treating with friends. She was so excited to be outside. We bundled her up and she had a great time!

 

 

We hope you had a great Halloween!
