Halloween
Nothing like posting in reverse!
I know Halloween is one of those touchy subjects for Christians, but we have always gone trick-or-treating with our friends, and I can't imagine it any other way. I do wish we could avoid all the people dressed as the grim reaper/slashers/"Scream" guys and the equally disturbing hooker/street walker/pole dancer types. But other than that, you can't beat an evening hayride with 20 of your best friends and people handing you candy just for asking ;-).
O and S as "twins"
M the "mad ballerina", Mimi the gypsy, and A the pioneer girl.
Scott
W, as Charlie Brown
E as Harry Potter (I LOVE this picture of him ;-)
The whole motley crew
The boys
The girls
Because most costumes for 13 year old boys who are 5'7" are not even REMOTELY appropriate, Scott went as a hobo.
Sari as a Chinese girl-we had this from a a church friend who went to China and brought this back for his daughter...ironically, another church friend brought her another lighter pink dress like this just a few months ago. She loves them both.
Mimi with her $10 Goodwill gypsy costume
Mimi the next day in her new favorite skirt and top :-)- I love practical costumes.
TJ's costume from Goodwill. It cost $2.54. I love Goodwill!!!
