No one was surprised when Brady decided he wanted to be Harry Potter for Halloween. I briefly considered trying to make this whole costume myself, but decided that the cost-benefit-headache ratio just didn't justify it. He did agree to a homemade wand, rather than the $15 deal at the local Halloween store. The robe, combined with a tie he already owned and the $5 glasses made it a pretty complete getup.
Rudy was his very own creation: SuperRu. So fitting for him and his personality. The costume changed every time he put it on: the shirt and pants were sometimes important and sometimes just whatever he was already wearing; the weapons seemed to rotate. What was always consistent was the cape, the wand, the mask, and the London bobby hat.
We invited Ellen and Garth and their kids over for dinner and trick-or-treating. The kids rushed through dinner like nobody's business and were anxious to get out the door. Normally, our kids tire after we finish one neighborhood section. Not this year! They finished that section in record time and still wanted to do our area.
Si, a royal knight, and Ginny Weasley. Otherwise known as Charlie, Mary Emma, and Kate. Brady was a little concerned that he'd get teased about having a Ginny Weasley nearby, but we managed to restrain ourselves.
