Spooky Holiday Past

One of my favorite holidays as a kid .. and okay as a grownup, too was Halloween. I was even ambitious enough to make costumes for the kids.

This is 1985 and younger witchy daughter on left and older bumble bee daughter on right.

Zip ahead a few years and again younger daughter on left and older daughter on right! While I can take credit for some of OD's costume, I take no credit for YD's.
