Halloween

Yes, Brad went as Mr. T. Nothing like starting your morning off combing out, and then trimming, your husband's Mr. T. wig so it will lie flat and look right. (It was kinda fun, actually, as I was thinking there might not be a huge number of wives who would help out like that, and look at the fun they were missing.)

Gideon went as High King Peter, from Chronicles of Narnia. I dressed Tabitha up as your general issue knave, so she'd match her brother. (Her tunic is made from two cloth napkins that were on clearance at Target.)

Robin and I went as ourselves, respectively.

Maelan went as Eowyn from the Lord of the Rings. She created the costume all by herself and spent lots of hours cutting, painting, arranging, and sewing. You should see some of the up close work and colors. We found her helmet at a party supply store (where Brad was looking for Mr. T. jewelry). She was so excited that such a helm existed.
