Its a bird. Its a plane. No its Superman and Supergirl

We went to my mom's group Halloween party tonight.  It was fun, but Scott got to see how most of the time is just spent chasing after C and very little socializing. 

Since C was SuperWhy and I just couldn't get pumped about being other characters from the show, Scott and I decided to go as superheroes as well. 

Scott was Clark Kent (I loved his costume). I even made a "press pass" for him as Clark Kent.

 I was SuperGirl (I started making my costume last night, so it's not the best ever--my cape especially didn't really work. It was a good cape, but I didn't have it affixed in a good way to my shirt--my velcro sticky tabs kept moving).

My skirt (first effort at a skirt) was a bit of a disaster, my elastic didn't work  (I think it was too small and I tried to put it in out of order--any way it sucked) so I had to sort of pin it up.  I just ran out of time.  But my boots were AWESOME!

These are my black boots that I covered in the red material.  I had to make three panels and attach them to each other b/c I didn't have enough fabric pieces big enough.  Then with the bottom panel I slit it over the back to fit it over the heel and then sewed it together underneath leaving no damage to the shoe.  I slipped them on, and they're (the boots and the covers) tight enough that the fabric up top just stayed tucked in against my skin.
