Every year we attend Britta's famous Halloween Party. This year, due to other commitments, we didn't make it there until kind of late. We had a fabulous costume idea, but there was just no time to pull all the elements together, so we went with a last minute theme. Anyone who knows the Monty Python Lumberjack Song will recognize elements from the song in our costumes. Unfortunately, there was no time to bake scones.
For those of you unfamiliar and wondering why the heck Kevin is dressed up in my clothes, check out the lyrics. Thanks to Robin for the last minute costume idea and the loan of the flannel shirt.
Ellie's costume was found at Gymboree. I couldn't resist the sweet little fairy dress.
It was great to hang out with friends late in the evening. The costumes are always fantastic. Robin was a stick of dynamite. Charles was a frighteningly good Joker (in full face makeup). Wendy, Dave and little Jacks came as the Charlie Brown gang. Altos as idioms crack me up.
Thanks, Britta, for another wonderful Halloween!
Iz jeluz that Kevin has way better legs than me.
Love Ellie's little fairy costume. Love that it's purple and not the usual pink or Tinkerbell green.

Ellie looks confused...

Oh. My. Gawd.
It's both frightening, and rather titilating! The leg hair really makes it.

I think you shoulda flipped a pair of suspenders over Kevin's outfit, just to drive it home.

I'm so glad you could come! Your costumes were clever (who knew Kevin had such good legs?!?) & Ellie was the cutest wood nymph! I'm glad your photo came out clear since mine was being fussy last night...even with no fog or fire pit smoke some were crystal clear & some were out of focus, like you guys and Robin AGAIN...*sigh* I might pull out my ancient camera just for costumes because it was always reliable... ;) Now for party mess cleanup, but I think I'll relax a bit first...
