« bonus shot: her majesty, princess chookooloonks of the deep blue »
A few months ago, I asked Alex: "Alex? What would you like to be for Halloween?"
She thought for a moment. Then she looked at me gravely:
"A hip hop artist. We're going to need lots of gold chains," she answered, gesturing emphatically around her neck and chest.
Needless to say, this was the beginning of some heated negotiations in our house. We finally compromised on the mermaid you see above.
I dunno, man.
Remember when she wanted to be an astronaut?
Happy Halloween, everyone. Have fun and stay safe.

Mercy Karen! She's really growing up! What a beauty. The most beautiful mermaid i've ever seen! Hope she gets LOADS of candy!
A dream!!! Magnifique!
she makes such a pretty mermaid...happy halloween!
I had 6 trick or treaters all evening... not nearly enough to unhand me of the milk duds and the other 6 lbs of candy.... Oh for a Chookooloonks Princess of the Deep Blue here in Washington DC! have a great evening Alex! stay safe as you swim from house to house.
I appreciate the fact that no costume in your house is complete with glitter (which, come to think of it, might have made the hip-hop thing hard).
Oh man, Karen. She's gotten so old! And look at those teeth!! Hope the trick or treating yielded a successful haul.
Very Minshall
She looks great! Hope she got loads of candy.
oh what a cutie. I just adore this costume and her smile.
Gorgeous costume - but the smile makes it all. Happy Halloween!
