Best XmAS idea i have had for my kids!
I have 3 sons (5,3,19months) and SD3 well my boys always want to play with SD dress up stuff and all the accessories but people always say NO b/c its girls stuff (I for one dont really care they are kids) So after Halloween i went to the stores and got costumes for like 85% off and bought a vintage wooden and metal trunk....so now i will have boy dress up and girl dress up in a really cool trunk. I bought 2 knight costumes with armor, a spiderman, a army jacket with helmet and radio, fireman, pirate, vampire, etc and for the SD i gotsome tutu's and princess dresses etc and went to a thrift store and found cool shoes and bags and ties etc. I am redoing the trunk and am so excited to put it all together!
So to break it down i spent liike $20 on costumes (like 13 of them)
and the biggest expense was the trunk (25$)
Also im proud of myself bc i asked my MIL to help me redo the trunk so we can bond or something especially since her PRECIOUS GRANDDAUGHTER is included in this gift....
haha i wouldnt be suprised one bit if xmas morning there were extra girl costumes and jewelry etc but whateva less things i have to buy
