Halloween!


Well, after eleven months of Ethan wanting to be a triggerfish, his dream came true. It all started when he received a nature magazine that had a green triggerfish and for whatever reason he fell in love with it over all the other fish. He wanted to be a triggerfish in the Christmas pageant but we told him that there was no triggerfish in the manger scene. As the months went by he never wavered so Liz had to come up with a plan.

She got a pattern off the internet and asked Ethan what kind of triggerfish he wanted to be. As luck would have it, he wanted to be a clown triggerfish which of course doubled the amount of work we had to do because of it's complexity (that'll teach us to ask). Liz bought black fabric, batting, paint, etc. It took many nights of Liz sewing and me painting and finished the night before Halloween. Liz made a mermaid costume for Anneliese even though Ethan wanted her to be a pink cat.
