This is actually Sarah's smile for the camera. 
The only picture that turned out. Taken on Wednesday night for a Harvest Party that we attended.Our camera has been on the fritz, but I think I fixed it tonight. Maybe we can start blogging again.
Sarah is wearing a clown costume that I made for Madeline 14 (!) years ago. It was one of the first things that I ever sewed for my kids. I think that each of the other kids has worn it for at least one Halloween. Since it was a little short in the sleeves and legs for Sarah this year, I added the red ruffles on Wednesday. Be sure to notice the "beep-beep" nose that's painted on her real nose. That was a must-have for this little clown.
Jon is, of course, some sort of Marine. Madeline graciously applied the cammo. makeup to his face.
Not sure what the other two are. Maybe Jack is supposed to be a bottomless pit? And Madeline is dressed as a "I'm-bored-and-why-do-I-have-to-go-with-you-guys" teenager? That's about right, I think.
It's raining here tonight, so we've had no trick-or-treaters. And to think that I made a last minute trip to Walmart just so I'd have candy on hand. Oh well, I'm sure we'll have no trouble taking care of THAT problem.
