Best in Costume! Back to Back!

By | Best of, For kids | 2 Comments

My friend Janet never fails to surprise me with her creativity!!!  She makes all the costumes of her kids and David has won two straight years already in the Manila Polo Club Halloween party. Last year he won as a tree and this year he won as a garbage can.   She is so creative, she does not buy anything.  She makes use of the things she has in her house or extra props that she can use.  AMAZING!    Joshua, the younger brother,  went as a shower which I found very creative too!
