We had a blast this year picking out costumes. My oldest is going to be Prince Philip from Sleeping Beauty (he can't wait until he grows up so that he can slay real dragons) and my youngest (2) is going to be an airplane pilot. I found him a fat little airplane that he wears around him (looks very Jay-Jay-ish) and it came with a helmet. He looks incredibly nerdy, but very cute!

Both were store bought. I don't sew on anything except scrapbook pages.
