In the past, Trevor has always announced what he wants his Halloween costume to be months and months in advance. This year, he hasn't mentioned it, despite the fact that it's already September and we have costume-required occasions starting in early October. I haven't asked, because I'm not mentally prepared for it to be fall yet. I just finished my final layout from last year's Halloween!
I've been struggling with this layout for a long time and I kept putting it back into the "deal with later" pile. I knew I wanted to do something with the three pictures of Trevor from his three different costumed events last year. I was too focused on the three different snakes and missed that the larger story was that we improved his costume each time he wore it (including changing the snake). Once I realized that was the story, everything fell quickly into place.
cute layout

ReplyDeleteIf not and this is a duplicate... sorry!)
Love the torn papers on this and the way you captured the evolution of Trevor's costume!
Trevor is so cute in each pic, love how you documented each version! :) I've started making my list of ideas ... I usually come up with 50 or so, and Josh says "NO" to all but a few. I keep recycling ideas though, hoping he will eventually come around to some! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - you HAVE to blog about your list of ideas and the ones Josh rejects!
DeleteLove the tearing! I thought we were all set and then a really expensive catalog came in the mail... We will see what happens!
