The Quest for a G - Rated Halloween

Halloween has been a big event this year. For a month Erin has been set on being "Princess Aurora" from sleeping beauty. Last week she made the comment, "I will be the princess, Eliza will be Flora and Dad will the the King". Jared asked her who mom was going to be and she thought for a second and replied..."Maleficent".

Feeling great from such a loving comment from my daughter we went to the party store to see if they had a sleeping beauty costume. They just have photos of the costume and then you give them the number and size and they go and get it for you. While we were waiting for them to retrieve Erin's beautiful pink dress, she excitably yelled, Mom! Look, we can both be princesses, I can be Aurora and you can be Snow White!

.....and this is the outfit she had picked out for her old mother. Classy I know. On the bright side, being 5'3" those white sock would extend far above the knee on me. I declined thinking that Maleficent was looking better and better, but then again, for some reason the old evil witch who is always dressed in layers and layers of floor length black sheathes of fabric in the books looks like she would be working the corner right next to Snow White. Would someone please make a costume for adult women that is G rated?
