Book Bash

Today is our bookin' buckineers book bash.  What's that mean? It means you dress up as your favorite book character.

Last year- Emily wanted to be Amelia Bedelia.  But when she got to school, she forgot her name so she just told her teacher she was Fancy Nancy.  I'm sure her teacher thought I was  complete nut job, as emily was wearing a prairie type dress, a straw hat and an apron rather than jewels and a feather boa.

Whatev.

This year..........
She wanted to dress up as a character from No David.
Only, instead of one of the recognizable characters like, hmmmmm.....I don't know....David, she wanted to be his mother.
You know- the one who you only see the bottom part of her body and her pearl necklace.
So this is what we came up with.

 Yes- I did in fact turn a pair of panty hose and one of dans old socks into David.  I was afraid no one would know who she was otherwise.
And they probably still won't since he may or may not look like a posessed gremlin.
Emily was happy- so I am too.
However, I'm pretty sure Davids mom doesn't own sparkle sneakers and grinch socks.

How Cute!! both she and the doll. Yes, you ARE creative AND talented and I think that David should go into the Magic Box after his introduction at school today. He is really cute!! (but then, he sprung from a long line of cute:)
