List of Family Costume Ideas

Here are some costume ideas that I have done with my boys for Halloween. I’m a widow and single mom so I have picked costume ideas for the three of us, but you could add additional costumes to most of these to fit the theme. Click on the individual blog post to get more details about how I put the costumes together. I also include links to costumes and wigs in the blog post!

Mother of Dragons Game of Thrones

We had too much fun putting together this Mother of Dragons costume for Halloween. My late husband loved Game of Thrones so I knew I had to do this for a Halloween costume. This is easy and quick for a family costume ideas because you can buy almost every costume. I share links to where I got everything for our costumes below. Click on the picture below

Finding Nemo Costume

I love Halloween and I enjoy making my own costumes each year. I thought it would be fun to be Darla from Finding Nemo and have my boys be Nemo and Crush. I thought I would share how I put together Darla’s costume and where I bought everything. This was by far the easiest costume I’ve put together for Halloween. This is a great family costume idea and you can easily add characters to this theme if you need more for your family.

Pixar movie Up

If you’re looking for a family costume ideas for this Halloween, the Up house costume can be such a fun and cute idea! A couple years ago when I decided I wanted to be the Up house I looked everywhere for a tutorial. I found lots of pictures, but nowhere that explained how they made it. So I made sure to document my process so that you could make it yourself!

Tutorial on How to Make the Up House Costume

Everything you need to make this adorable DIY Russell and Carl Up costume. I made sure to include where I got all the materials and how you can put it together yourself! Up for family costume ideas is a great option. You could add additional characters from the movie if you need to.

Lilo and Stitch

Lilo and Stitch is my favorite movie so I knew I had to do this costume one year. I ordered the stitch baby costume online. I made Lilo’s costume with felt and cut out leaves. I found a yellow shirt and ironed on a red heart. It was super easy to do. If you need a quick and easy costume for the family this is a great option!

Thomas the Train

This is a cute themed costume if you have little kids and you want to push them around on Halloween night. See the picture below to see how I made this Thomas the train wagon. I also linked the wagon below with my full review if you are interested.

Justin’s parents took the boys to visit Justin’s gravesite on Memorial Day. They shared this video of the boys going around picking up all the flower pots that had fallen over. My heart 😭❤️🥹 had to share #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #lossofalovedone
It was really hard going from living with my paren It was really hard going from living with my parents to then living on my own with the boys. I was terrified of sleeping alone at night. Managing a home. Single parenting. Being alone. 

I find it hard when people say “you’re so strong” like I have some choice in the matter. The way I see it, it’s ether be strong or give up” I don’t see much of a choice. I made a choice to be strong, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t hard and I don’t struggle. It’s the hardest thing I’ve done since Justin has passed away. I’m still struggling, but I keep going. That’s most important! Big milestone today! Living on my own for a year now

Mothers Day can be a hard day as a single mom. Tod Mothers Day can be a hard day as a single mom. Today was just like any other day. It’s another reminder that Justin is gone and then I start to think “if he was here I bet it would be like this..” everything always comes back to him 💔 Marshal did run in around 11am randomly and said “Happy Mothers Day” which was so sweet! So grateful to have my boys though and so happy to be their mom #mothersday #singlemommothersday #singlemom
