Clowns and Crows

Happy Halloween 2008! I had so much fun this year with Jabin and Haddy's costumes. I knew Jabin was going to be a rodeo clown and last minute I decided to make Hadden his barrel. I wasn't sure how the barrel would turn out so she was the back up clown in the barrel so people would know what she was. The kids loved it and we had a lot of fun. It was so easy and inexpensive. Dallas made an adorable scare crow. I asked her if she would be our cowboy and she said only if I can have horns sticking out of me like the bull horned me, so I told her we would do the scare crow this year.

I got the great big hat at the NFR a couple years ago and I made the barrel out of a pop up hamper and cardboard.

Okay, can we say CREATIVE! I never would've come up with a way to make that barrel. You have some very cute clowns and I love your scare crow too. It is scary how much she looks like her mom too! Cute cute cute!
