Michelle and I had Kermit and Piggy as the topper on our wedding cake, so when we went to choose which characters we wanted to be for the Muppets themed Halloween house, the choices were easy\u2014I would be Kermit and she would be Miss Piggy.

It had a dog on the back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once it had dried, I cut out around where I had painted and sewed it on to the jacket, covering the dog that had been there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
