Halloween Sneak Peek

Tonight was the neighborhood Halloween carnival and costume contest. I won...I mean Parker won first place in her age group. Several moms did quite a double-take when they saw her, expecting cute sweet Parker. She also has a stuffed animal also wrapped in fabric that is part of the costume. She also wanted to take her list with her in case people asked what she was, but I talked her out of it.

What I'm doing instead of blogging...

I'm making a Halloween costume.
Here are the specs I've been given:

Halloween planning started early this year (not that I'm any more ahead of the game than normal). Long gone are the days of cute lady bugs or bumble bees and store bought costumes.  This year, Parker is determined to combine elements of all the gross and scary things she can think of into one costume.  I tried to get her to draw a sketch (so she'd quit talking about it), but she did a list instead.
She'd like to be "a mixture of a vampire zombie ghost devel frankin stine".  She'd like "flowing sleves, worn out cloth, faded white dress" and "blood on teeth".  Also "fangs, but not the plastic colored ones", "poofy hair, black circles around my eyes, wings, and bolts on my neck".  Also spiders and fake eyeballs in her hair.
She's also requested a smoke machine for when she makes her entrance. Entrance into what I'm not sure.
Should be easy enough, right?  In addition to the costume, which needs to be finished by saturday night, I have to help make an "all about me" poster for school on Monday, and at some point we need to carve the pumpkin. 

Here's a pretty picture of her I took this summer but never posted.
