Hey yall! First, I am dubbing today the first real day of fall for the Grants. We bought our first pumpkin of the season and its cool enough for our windows to be open! [Insert squeal here!] I may bake something delicious today just because my windows are open and it feels wonderful. Second, cooler weather means its almost Halloween! Ok, not almost, but in a few weeks. And if your are like me, you wait to the last minute to make your kids costumes. Seriously, last year I was ironing and sewing the day before. I knew what the kids would be, I just waited til the last minute to make their costumes. [High five for procrastination!] The thing it – I don’t know what Avery is going to be this year! Ryley is easy – princess or ballerina. Or a princess ballerina. But Im not so sure about little man. Thats where yall come in! I am hosting the second annual Halloween costume contest!
So here is the rundown of the Halloween costume contest:
- Link up starts October 12
- Link up your costumes from the 12-26 [two weeks]
- Voting starts the 27th and runs til the 31st
- The costume with the most votes wins a $25 Starbucks gift card
- If you have a picture of your costume but are not a blogger or have not posted it, email it and we can add it to the link up!
- Costumes can be ones from previous years or ones from this coming up Halloween.
- Handmade or semi-handmade costumes only.
- Each person will be allowed to vote 3 times a day.
- Invite family and friends to vote for your costume to increase your changes of winning!

I’m so excited 😀 Maybe this’ll give me the oomph to finally get our costumes finished, haha!
Kelley says
Haha! Same here girl! What is your little one going to be this year?
Breenah says
We’re being characters from Futurama. Jarrod’ll be Fry, I’m gonna be Leela, and she’ll be Nibbler. Similar to this, except I’m doing the extra eye on a headband. http://ccinsider.comedycentral.com/files/2011/11/baby-nibbler.jpg

Cody Doll says
I am going on a limb and saying only one entry per person right?
Other that I am in. I have a very cute DIY custom in the makes.
Kelley says
Oops! Yes! One entry per person. Ill add that for sure. Thanks Cody!
Cody Doll says
I figured but when you said that past Halloween costumes work, I thought some might think more then one entry.
Kelley says
Just one. Pick your best one to enter! Can’t wait to see what you have Cody! 🙂
