Awhile back at a consignment sale I found a little memphis cheerleading outfit for Amber for just 5 bucks! At the time I just thought how cute and I can't pass this up because those things can be expensive. I didn't even think about a halloween costume, until a little later and thought hmmm she can just be that!
So I didn't think anymore about it until we started talking about it a couple of days before halloween and we thought oh we should go with a theme! Ricky already has a basketball jersey so at first I just said she could be your little cheerleader. Then I thought, hey I don't want to be left out! So we came up with I could be the Tiger. I thought surely I can find some ears and a tail somewhere even though its 2 days before halloween. When it was all said and done I went to about 7 different places and nada, nothing, zero tiger stuff!!!! There was plenty of other costume from monsters to lady gaga (well I guess that's the same category:) ) so from monsters to sweet, cute animal costumes. I was soooo frustrated and just thought oh well I guess I won't be anything. But we found out that our friend Josh's family had an entire Tiger costume! He had to go through the attic to find it but it was still there and in ok condition. Ricky decided to be the Tiger and I was the basketball player and then we had our little cheerleader! Our families loved it but unfortunately when went trick or treating no one really got it!
Anyway, we are wondering if we have started a tradition now and have to have a theme each year!? Who knows!
