Carnival and Costumes

So Fasching (Carnival/Mardi Gras) is really big here.  Halloween isn't really a kid holiday, but Fasching is.  Kindergartens and schools have big parties and all the kids dress up.  This year, Nathanael's school had their party (they brought in a professional clown to perform) the day before Fasching, and Eva's was the day-of, so my pictures of the two dressed up are unfortunately not on the same day.

My big police officer (technically he said he was a police helicopter pilot)

My Minnie Mouse

And because I'm posting this two months later, I have to include a few other "dress-up" photos I've taken of Eva in the last couple months.

Ballerina Eva

Sick day wearing brother's hand-me-down dinosaur jammies:

Snow White

Chef Eva making pasta necklaces of course

Eva Pirate-ess

Just Eva being herself.  I love it.  (Although I do not necessarily enjoy the countless changes of clothes almost every day!)
