Halloween- for young and old

Halloween is BIG at our house- you will hear remarked many times as the day approaches "Halloween is my favourite holiday"...

and it is true- for most of my family Halloween is a favourite- and we decorate- and we all dress up.

I was a bit worried this year that my older children would be hassled- they are tall (always have been) and I was very grateful that not ONE person commented on their age or size.. in fact people all loved our group's costumes and at several houses people were called to the door to admire our hard work!

Chaos of pumpkin carving abounds.

My beautiful bride of frankenstein- in the ver so painful process of becoming her character fo the evening.. and the finished product- even as a monster she is gorgeous.

And we have the Chime-bot 2010.. not sure what this pose is about- she actually was pretty head strong about no photos being taken- so I am lucky i got this one!

We have a classic Batman villain- two face- he actually cut his hair off for this costume- something he has NEVER done- i mean very literally his hair has not been this short since it was this length growing in as a baby. Talk about committed to the role!

and so very beautiful my boy- even with the face paint- the suit was something as well- we had fun marking up the one side and burning it just so.

I wish I had a better picture of the mask we made here. We has a request for a fairly obscure Halloween costume this year.

And old school Doctor Who character- the Silurian. seen below from- the original and our creation. All in all I was fairly happy with how it turned out- there is a real crystal embedded in the temple!

We had a blast- got loads of loot...and laughed a lot!!!
