Halloween 2024 - CLUE

 For Halloween this year, we went back & forth & back & forth on SEVERAL different family theme ideas.  I've been pretty busy & continue to be busy taking care of my parents so I knew I didn't have time to make all the costumes this year (& quite frankly, fabric prices have gotten so high that it's cheaper to thrift or buy costumes now than it was 5 years ago).

The kids all outvoted Trek & I & chose CLUE as our family theme.  The adult kids wanted to be part of the fun too so we all shopped at thrift stores & found perfect pieces for our costumes.  A few things we bought on Amazon to finish up the details (like the weapons & the butler/maid costumes), but everything else was thrifted treasures.  We wanted to do a spin on CLUE. . . kind of a mixture of the 1980's movie mixed with the original CLUE board game card characters, but ended up adding a 1920's spin on it.  We had a blast putting it all together.

We had a FABULOUS photographer meet us at the state capital to take our family pictures.  They turned out PERFECT!

After getting our pictures taken, we all went out to Taco Bell for lunch as a family.  I love my family so much.
