Are You a Good Witch or a Bad Witch?

Happy Halloween! This year we paid homage to The Wizard of Oz. Naomi was the Wicked Witch of the West, and Eliza was Glinda the Good Witch. The girls chose which character they wanted to be. Naomi said, “My wanna wear the green make-ups, Mama.” (Yes she says “my” instead of “I”. She thinks that “my” is her own personal pronoun.) We tried the green witch make-up on her, but we ultimately decided against it. Eliza just wanted to wear sparkles. They loved being witches. Here are some snap shots.

It was seriously painful to get them to sit still and smile together - I had to enlist the help of David, Grammy, Becca, and Uncle Shan.


Most of our pictures looked like this - Eliza smiled while Naomi pouted. Naomi really wanted to eat candy. The girls, of course, don't eat candy on a regular basis. We made an exception for Halloween - they ate as many suckers, m&m's, candy pumpkins, and nerds as they could in 3 days. Not to mention all the candy the relatives gave them that I don't even know about.

I love Naomi's tights and broom.

Here they are walking up to GG's door.

Their candy buckets had Mickey and Minnie on them... of course.

Clearly Eliza is pleased with her spoils.

I started to take pics at home before the Ward party, but I only got to Naomi. Eliza had (and still has!) a cold and was asleep. Naomi was so pleased with her costume.

Here she is showing me her stockings.

Seriously - she is the cutest evil witch I have ever seen.

When Eliza finally woke up, it was time to go - I rushed the girls outside to snap a few pics. Eliza loved her wand. Her costume was sooo sparkly that there is now glitter all over the apartment and car.

Nerds.

In Naomi and Eliza's world, the witches are best friends who hold hands.

Yay for Halloween!
