Somehow we managed a red and black theme this year, which was pretty much accidental. We appear below in the order that we exited the house for trick or treating.
Rosebud, who loves kitties, was a kitty. She loved that Rose Pink drew whiskers on her face.
Nut Brown was a dragon ninja. Our thrift store here was a treasure trove of costume opportunities.
Bobo was also a ninja.
Mr. Brown was the devil. He had a fabulous cape and dyed his hair and beard and eyebrows black. The horns were super awesome.
Rose Pink was a day-of-the-dead person. She found this skirt on sale last November (post-halloween) and has been waiting for a year to wear it.
She did her own makeup!!
She also found one for me, so we were twinkies, which was really fun!
She made her headdress, and I put two separate headdresses that I found in Michigan together to make mine. I have a veil with a skull on it sewn on to the flowery headband. We were both pleased with our costumes.
Trick or treating was fun, although our neighborhood was less fruitful than we expected. But there were still piles of candy when we got home. Eleven pounds this year.
