When I was pregnant last year with Megan I decided that for Megan's first Halloween I wanted to dress up as Cruela de Vil and have Megan be my dalmatian. I already had a black dress and white long coat, so all I needed was read gloves, a wig, and a dalmatian costume for Megan. Sounds pretty easy, right? Well, finding a dalmatian costume that was cute and affordable was rather difficult. I started to look in September and wasn't having any luck. I had looked everywhere including eBay, Disney, Target, Walmart, etc. and couldn't find anything. Thanks to my sister, Queen of the Internet Jill, we found one at Kmart. I was stoked that it was cute and only $12. Added bonus that it is a warm costume since it's been known to snow in Utah on Halloween (this year it was unseasonable warm). Megan and I had a fun night stopping by some neighbor's houses to say hi while Eric stayed home to pass out candy. I tried to get him to come around with us, but he insisted that we really needed to get rid of all the candy we bought at Costco, and sadly, he was right. I'm bummed that our ward doesn't do Halloween parties. It was fun to dress up with Megan and now I'm sad that I have to wait a whole year before we can do it again. Overall, a very success first Halloween with our little one.
