An Incredible Halloween...


A couple of interesting facts:

1. This is the only existing picture of our family of five... this masterpiece has been 13 months in the making.
 
2. The masks on the big kids' faces took 20 painstaking minutes to paint and were smeared to oblivion during the 1 mile car ride to our friends' house that night. Meanwhile, defying all logic, their baby brother had no problem wearing his mask for more than 20-30 minutes. I call that even.
 
3. The highlight of Tatum's entire October was the day I flat-ironed her hair. However, upon doing so, I realized she'd instantly aged 5 years and vowed to myself to never hit that speed-up button again!
 
4. Trevor's super-hero smirk was the highlight of my entire October.

Cute pictures! When I saw the first picture my first thought was "Oh, no what happened to her curly hair!" I thought maybe her hair just outgrew the curly part and then I read that you flat ironed it. She looks cute with the curly hair. You're right about the straight hair making her look older. I've always thought little girls look cute with curly hair. Of course my girls have straight hair and they're pretty cute too-but then my opinion is probably biased being their mother!
