The "Poodle Girls"



Every year for Halloween, my cousin Eliza, her husband, and 2 girls come over for a Halloween feast and trick or treating. We love the tradition of it all. What was funny was everyone kept asking the girls what they were, and my girls kept saying, "We're poodle girls!"

In other words (they think to themselves), "We don't actually know what we are, nor do we realize that other kids actually get to choose their costumes, because our mom is controlling. She plots and plans for months what will look cute in pictures, and for now we really have no say. But we will get our revenge in high school when we outnumber her, and we form our own coup and force her to buy us clothes she doesn't even like....."

Oh yeah, we'll see about that, but for now, you're wearing matching cardigans, and you're ganna like it. And another thing, that rule I told you girls about weeding out all the chocolate candies and giving them to your mom so they won't "melt," that's a real rule. Eat your hard candy and like it. The Snickers are mine.

Love the costumes! I have a feeling your mom was busy at the sewing machine making those. :) Cheers on the snickers, I just had one this afternoon too! I love it when neighbors are generous and hand out the full-sized snickers!

Fantastic costumes! Don't worry about stealing their candy - Liam has only gotten to eat one piece of his. All his Kit-Kats magically disappeared. Into my stomach. Forever.
