Scooby Dooby What?!

I picked the girls up super early from pre K today so that we could spend the afternoon shopping for Halloween costumes. Grace was adament. She wanted to be Ariel. Though Maggie had said a month ago she wanted to be Cinderella, the past couple of weeks she's been firmly pressing the Cheerleader idea. Maggie followed through with getting a cheerleader costume. She, very specifically, wanted a "fire pink" one. I think most of us call that hot pink. :) We found it at the first store we visited. Easy.

We searched a few stores for the perfect Ariel costume. We found it. Right beside this Daphne costume. I guess the big orange wig was just too much of a temptation, because Grace left the store with that Daphne costume. Ask her what she's going to be for Halloween and she'll tell you Ariel. I gently remind her she chose something else and she responds, "Oh yeah, what's that girl's name again? The Scooby Doo girl with the orange hair?"

What Grace is more excited about is that after we left the store with the Daphne costume, I told her I'd make Izzy a big, chunky collar with the SD logo on it and she could go as Scooby Doo. Maggie, getting in on the plot, has decided she's playing a cheerleader character in a random Scooby Doo cartoon and she's going to say "Zoinks!" alot (in between cheers, of course).
