This year's Halloween was, well, comic indeed. Brandy and I did lots of planning, scheming, and preparing, and even persuaded Brandy's talented neighbor to sew costumes for the Peanuts. Yes, real needles and threads were involved. The result is simply adorable! If we ignore the fact that the Peanuts would not cooperate in the grander scheme of taking pictures of the result. Popeye hated his shirt and wanted to show muscles only, Olive Oyl refused to put her pearl earrings on, and Swee'Pea... yeah Swee'Pea was the sweetest little pea who stayed out of trouble. Unlike Popeye and his beloved Olive Oyl, who are always getting into trouble! But anyone familiar with the famous cartoon knows that spinach and the power of love always bring forth a perfect happy end.

There! Finally I can see it! The family resemblance between Lia and Keska... how could I NOT have spotted it before?!
How Precious!!!
Tolle Idee und tolle Kinder!
Wir sind ganz begeistert.
"Keska" = Tara saying Francesca
Some Power Couple, I have to say.
Love Lia's hair - so reminds me of old pictures of my mom when she was Lia's age and really rocked that hair style in the 1940s.
So sweet.
meine Güte, die drei kids schießen ja den Vogel ab!! und sind die hübscheste Familie, die ich je gesehen habe - so goldig!! LG, Su
Sweet peas, indeed! A-dor-a-ble!
And I thought you'd dress them as Peanuts, Snoopy and alike. Maybe next year?
