We had so much fun with Hadley on her first Halloween! I grew up with amazing homemade costumes so I was determined to make Hadley's first one. My sewing machine didn't make it to England on time so Mom and I got in the car and to head to the fabric store after the wedding. I realized before the car started that sewing a pattern after a busy weekend with jetlag would likely end in tears for me and those around me. Jamie had been asking for Hadley to be a little witch - she developed this little high pitched laugh that he thought was perfect. So we stopped at Micheals and 15 minutes after we returned home I had a costume. We took her little wedding dress and tied tulle the way my crafty friend Hayley showed me around the waist and took a felt hat, cut it up to fit and glue gunned it back together. We thought she was the cutest witch we had ever seen! Hope you had a perfectly spooky Halloween!
