Halloween 2009

BOO!

Hehe…I thought that was funny. We wanted to share some pictures from Halloween this year. We went over to a friend’s house like last year. The theme was El Dia de los Muertos. We had been tossing around a Muppet theme and had to think fast to somehow cram our idea into the party theme. So, we came up with Lucha Libre Muppets!! Kermit, Robin, and Miss Piggy – as wrestlers.

Tricia worked for about three weeks making up patterns, cutting, and sewing like a fiend. In the end, we got some GREAT costumes. Not everyone picked up on the fact that Abby was Robin, Kermit’s cousin, but we blamed that on the fact that he didn’t get a lot of air time. It turned into Big Kermit and Little Kermit. Tricia glammed out with her costume and wore a fancy dress from the 70’s with some great jewelry. We had a blast. Abby trick-or-treated at about three houses before announcing that it was now time to go home. She’s been carrying around those three pieces of candy all day.

So, here are a couple of pictures from last night. Look at the detail work Tricia put into the costumes!!

All the kids at the party. Four girls on the back left are Spanish peasants. Black hat in the back row is a burglar. Yellow dress is an American Idol contestant. Little dude in the front is a bandito. Abby is Robin

Jeremy, Jacob, and Pat as adult men in tights! Wrestle on, my friends, wrestle on…
