Friend Makin Monday- Halloween

This week Amber has us talking about what everyone is wearing for Halloween! Tim and I don't dress up so it will be just Sammy! It was a tough choice this year! I was debating between:

Larry the Cumber
Winnie the Pooh
Lion

Then we were walking around in Costco and we saw this cute elephant costume. Sammy loves to make the elephant noise (well most animal noises). But he gets super excited about the elephant. Unfortunately they did not have one in his size. So I started looking online for one. They were ranging around $30+ and to be honest I didn't want to spend that. My sister was going to lend us my nephews Winne the Pooh costume so I didn't want to spend a whole lot of money since I had a free one to borrow (Thanks Clare)! I hopped on Craigslist and you wouldn't believe what I found! The same elephant costume from Costco in his size! So for $5 this is what his costume will look like:

This is not the actual costume but its pretty close! It has a built in belly that makes my string bean look more like an elephant :-).
