MASH Costume Party

Our MASH group had a Christmas Costume Party this weekend that I've been so excited about since it got on the calendar! I love any reason to wear a costume and dress up so I was happy that it was for a reason other than Halloween! I decided to go as a gingerbread girl. As Shawn was trying to decide what to go as, we saw a picture on the Internet of someone dressed as a gingerbread house and that was it! My costume took about a week to create and cost about $7 and Shawn's was free so I was pretty excited about it. There was suppose to be a prize for best costume too, but I really didn't care because I just wanted it to look good whether we were getting something or not. Well, it turned out even better than I had hoped. I loved how all five of us were able to make it work. I found the girls aprons at JoAnn's that were half off and they will serve them for years to come anyway! Levi's shirt was made my yours truly. I saw something just like it on etsy.com and had all the right colors of felt so I made it and I LOVE how it turned out too! Anyway, the party was amazing and loads of fun. Everyone voted and YEAH!!!! WE WON!!! And to our surprise, the prize was a $25 Visa Giftcard!!! AWESOME!!! Not only do I now have $25 to anywhere, but a life size gingerbread house (which I'll for sure be keeping and decorating with every year!) and another costume to add to my every growing closet of Halloween props! I love our MASH group so much and am so so thankful that we have such great and fun friends!
