I don't know about you but at our house everything is about superheroes and costumes. My boys basically live in their many costumes. I actually love it though. I think it is so fun! They have a blast and everyone is happy. Sometimes they don't even need a full costume, just some fun little fingerless gloves like these!

It just dawned on me this week that I should probably get started with an Auburn Elephant account and share patterns there too. Duh, Erin! So I set it up today! Yay!
