{Perfectly Pebbles}

What a crazy week it has been, what with the devastating coverage coming from the effects of Hurricane Sandy. It can be so difficult to remove ourselves from our own little world and realize that while California weather is just peachy, the other side of the country is coming out of a terribly destructive natural disaster! Our thoughts and prayers are with all who have been touched by this.

On a lighter note, I hope you had an enjoyable Halloween! We decided to go big this year and dress up as a family! Claire's fate, err, Halloween costume, was decided just after she turned four months old and I put her hair up like this...

 It was that day Chris and I decided there was no better costume for her than Pebbles Flinstone! And over these past 7+ months, she's grown into her Pebbles-likeness even more with her hair getting lighter and that signature "fountain pony" she sports these days! So, as only appropriate, Chris and I dressed up as Wilma and Fred!

Seriously, are they not the best (and cutest) Fred & Pebbles you've ever seen?!?

Before we all headed to the Grandparents for trick-or-treating, we stopped by the Harvest Festival at my Aunt Judy's preschool, where Claire got to walk in the costume parade and even pick out her own pumpkin from the pumpkin patch!

And here we are as the Flinstones! Our costumes are courtesy of Chris' mom who made them for us :)

 

What a great and memorable first Halloween for our girl! I cannot believe this is one of her last firsts {tear}. 

How perfect did those leg warmers go with her costume?! Yaba daba doo!!

We're already scheming for next year's costumes :)
