See Jane Blog – Page 42 – there is life. there is art. and in-between is the journey. welcome to see jane blog.

hello. i am starting this week late due to our windy visitor, sandy. we made all the proper preparations for her visit – and right on queue sunday evening i received a text from our local police station saying, school has been cancelled monday due to the hurricane… instantly a school night became a three-day weekend…

so… we put on our rain gear and went to a late movie!

{we went to see chasing mavericks – have you seen it???}

it just so happens husband was on his way home from the philippines and scheduled to land in Boston today. the airport was closed so he chose to be re-routed to Salt Lake City and is working from his offices there till we hope he can come home on Wednesday for Halloween.

let me begin by saying – sela went through a ‘hula’ stage earlier this year, and then became obsessed with mime’s. i have no idea why. she would ask me to find videos online for her to watch, and then i’d catch her practicing her mime moves around the house. it just killed me with cuteness.

so, sometime in august when i asked her if she had any idea what she wanted to be for halloween, it was totally appropriate when she said, a mime! {a better choice than hula girl for the weather this time of year!}

she loved acting like a mime + my girl has a serious fetish for black and white stripes!

Are you ready for halloween? Are you dressing-up this year? Have you chosen a costume? you have eight days to decide!!! this year our kids are divided 2:2 in costumes. however, our color scheme coordinates with both costume ideas which i think turned out pretty rad. {i’ll show you our second homemade costume idea tomorrow.}

If you are dressing up and need last minute ideas, both of these costumes could easily be thrown together with items you may already have in your closet! or, if you need to purchase a few items – they are all items (black jeans, black hoodie, black chuck tailors} you can adapt into your wardrobe after the holiday. {bonus!}

since my kids are getting older —
